User Guide: User Guide:
The access device will add the port into Guest VLAN if there is no supplicant getting authenticated
successfully in a certain stretch of time because of lacking exclusive authentication supplicant
system or the version of the supplicant system being too low.
In Guest VLAN, users can get 802.1x supplicant system software, update supplicant system or
update some other applications (such as anti-virus software, the patches of operating system).
When a user of a port within Guest VLAN starts an authentication, the port will remain in Guest
VLAN in the case of a failed authentication. If the authentication finishes successfully, there are two
possible results:
The authentication server assigns an Auto VLAN, causing the port to leave Guest VLAN to join
the assigned Auto VLAN. After the user gets offline, the port will be allocated back into the
specified Guest VLAN.
