MAC Address Authentication
The Network Access feature controls host access to the network by authenticating
its MAC address on the connected switch port. Traffic received from a specific MAC
address is forwarded by the switch only if the source MAC address is successfully
authenticated by a central RADIUS server. While authentication for a MAC address
is in progress, all traffic is blocked until authentication is completed. On successful
authentication, the RADIUS server may optionally assign VLAN settings for the
switch port.
