SSIGNMENT
The RADIUS Attributes Assignment on the DES-1228/ME is used in the 802.1X (Port-based and Host-based) module.
The description that follows explains the following RADIUS Attributes Assignment types:
Ingress/Egress Bandwidth
802.1p Default Priority
VLAN
To assign
Ingress/Egress bandwidth by RADIUS Server
, the proper parameters should be configured on the
RADIUS Server. The tables below show the parameters for bandwidth.
The parameters of the Vendor-Specific attributes are:
Vendor-Specific Attribute
Description
Value
Usage
Vendor-ID
Defines the vendor.
171 (DLINK)
Required
Vendor-Type
Defines the attribute.
2 (for ingress
bandwidth)
3 (for egress
bandwidth)
Required
Attribute-Specific Field
Used to assign the bandwidth
of a port.
Unit (Kbits)
Required
If the user has configured the bandwidth attribute of the RADIUS server (for example, ingress bandwidth 1000Kbps)
and the 802.1X authentication is successful, the device will assign the bandwidth (according to the RADIUS server) to
the port. However, if the user does not configure the bandwidth attribute and authenticates successfully, the device
will not assign any bandwidth to the port. If the bandwidth attribute is configured on the RADIUS server with a value of
“0” or more, than the effective bandwidth (100Mbps on an Ethernet port or 1Gbps on a Gigabit port) of the port will be
set to
no_limited
.
To assign
802.1p default priority by RADIUS Server
, the proper parameters should be configured on the RADIUS
Server. The tables below show the parameters for 802.1p default priority.
The parameters of the Vendor-Specific attributes are:
Vendor-Specific Attribute
Description
Value
Usage
Vendor-ID
Defines the vendor.
171 (DLINK)
Required
Vendor-Type
Defines the attribute.
4
Required
Attribute-Specific Field
Used to assign the 802.1p
default priority of the port.
0-7
Required
If the user has configured the 802.1p priority attribute of the RADIUS server (for example, priority 7) and the 802.1X
authentication is successful, the device will assign the 802.1p default priority (according to the RADIUS server) to the
port. However, if the user does not configure the priority attribute and authenticates successfully, the device will not
assign a priority to this port. If the priority attribute is configured on the RADIUS server is a value out of range (>7), it
will not be set to the device.
