Configuring Port-Based and Client-Based Access Control (802.1X)
802.1X Open VLAN Mode
■ The switch's default VLAN is already configured with an IP address
of 10.28.127.100 and a network mask of 255.255.255.0
Inspecting 802.1X Open VLAN Mode Operation. For information and
an example on viewing current Open VLAN mode operation, refer to “Viewing
802.1X Open VLAN Mode Status” on page 8-50.
802.1X Open VLAN Operating Notes
■ Although you can configure Open VLAN mode to use the same VLAN
for both the Unauthorized-Client VLAN and the Authorized-Client
VLAN, this is
not recommended. Using the same VLAN for both
purposes allows unauthenticated clients access to a VLAN intended
only for authenticated clients, which poses a security breach.
■
While an Unauthorized-Client VLAN is in use on a port, the switch
temporarily removes the port from any other statically configured
VLAN for which that port is configured as a member. Note that the
Menu interface will still display the port’s statically configured
VLAN(s).
■ A VLAN used as the Unauthorized-Client VLAN should not allow
access to resources that must be protected from unauthenticated
clients.
