Hold Time
This setting applies to the following modes, i.e. modes using the Port Security functionality to
secure MAC addresses:
• Single 802.1X
• Multi 802.1X
• MAC-Based Auth.
If a client is denied access - either because the RADIUS server denies the client access or
because the RADIUS server request times out (according to the timeout specified on the
"Configuration→Security→AAA" page) - the client is put on hold in the Unauthorized state.
The hold timer does not count during an on-going authentication.
In MAC-based Auth. mode, the switch will ignore new frames coming from the client during
the hold time.
The Hold Time can be set to a number between 10 and 1000000 seconds.
RADIUS-Assigned QoS Enabled
RADIUS-assigned QoS provides a means to centrally control the traffic class to which traffic
coming from a successfully authenticated supplicant is assigned on the switch. The RADIUS
server must be configured to transmit special RADIUS attributes to take advantage of this
feature (see RADIUS-Assigned QoS Enabled below for a detailed description).
The "RADIUS-Assigned QoS Enabled" checkbox provides a quick way to globally
enable/disable RADIUS-server assigned QoS Class functionality. When checked, the
individual ports' ditto setting determine whether RADIUS-assigned QoS Class is enabled on
that port. When unchecked, RADIUS-server assigned QoS Class is disabled on all ports.
RADIUS-Assigned VLAN Enabled
RADIUS-assigned VLAN provides a means to centrally control the VLAN on which a
successfully authenticated supplicant is placed on the switch. Incoming traffic will be
classified to and switched on the RADIUS-assigned VLAN. The RADIUS server must be
configured to transmit special RADIUS attributes to take advantage of this feature (see
RADIUS-Assigned VLAN Enabled below for a detailed description).
The "RADIUS-Assigned VLAN Enabled" checkbox provides a quick way to globally
enable/disable RADIUS-server assigned VLAN functionality. When checked, the individual
ports' ditto setting determine whether RADIUS-assigned VLAN is enabled on that port. When
unchecked, RADIUS-server assigned VLAN is disabled on all ports.
Guest VLAN Enabled
A Guest VLAN is a special VLAN - typically with limited network access - on which 802.1X-
unaware clients are placed after a network administrator-defined timeout. The switch follows a
set of rules for entering and leaving the Guest VLAN as listed below.
The "Guest VLAN Enabled" checkbox provides a quick way to globally enable/disable Guest
VLAN functionality. When checked, the individual ports' ditto setting determines whether the
port can be moved into Guest VLAN. When unchecked, the ability to move to the Guest
VLAN is disabled on all ports.
Guest VLAN ID
This is the value that a port's Port VLAN ID is set to if a port is moved into the Guest VLAN.
It is only changeable if the Guest VLAN option is globally enabled.
Valid values are in the range [1; 4095].
