and VLAN Port" pages. These pages show which modules have (temporarily) overridden
the current Port VLAN configuration.
Guest VLAN Operation:
When a Guest VLAN enabled port's link comes up, the switch starts transmitting EAPOL
Request Identity frames. If the number of transmissions of such frames exceeds Max.
Reauth, count and no EAPOL frames have been received. In the meanwhile, the switch
considers entering the Guest VLAN. The interval between transmission of EAPOL Request
Identity frames is configured with EAPOL Timeout. If Allow Guest VLAN in EAPOL Seen is
enabled, the port will now be placed in the Guest VLAN. If disabled, the switch will first
check its history to see if an EAPOL frame has previously been received on the port (this
history is cleared if the port link goes down or the port's Admin State is changed), and if not,
the port will be placed in the Guest VLAN. Otherwise it will not move to the Guest VLAN,
but continue transmitting EAPOL Request Identity frames at the rate given by EAPOL
Timeout.
Once in the Guest VLAN, the port is considered authenticated, and all attached clients on
the port are allowed access on this VLAN. The switch will not transmit an EAPOL Success
frame when entering the Guest VLAN.
While in the Guest VLAN, the switch monitors the link for EAPOL frames, and if one such
frame is received, the switch immediately takes the port out of the Guest VLAN and starts
authenticating the supplicant according to the port mode. If an EAPOL frame is received,
the port will never be able to go back into the Guest VLAN if the "Allow Guest VLAN if
EAPOL Seen" is disabled.
Port State :
The current state of the port. It can undertake one of the following values:
Globally Disabled: NAS is globally disabled.
Link Down: NAS is globally enabled, but there is no link on the port.
Authorized: The port is in Force Authorized or a single-supplicant mode and the supplicant
is authorized.
Unauthorized: The port is in Force Unauthorized or a single-supplicant mode and the
supplicant is not successfully authorized by the RADIUS server.
X Auth/Y Unauth: The port is in a multi-supplicant mode. Current X clients are authorized
and Y are unauthorized.
Restart :
Two buttons are available for each row. The buttons are only enabled when authentication
is globally enabled and the port's Admin State is in an EAPOL-based or MAC-based mode.
Clicking these buttons will not cause settings changed on the page to take effect.
Reauthenticate: Schedules a reauthentication whenever the quiet-period of the port runs
out (EAPOL-based authentication). For MAC-based authentication, reauthentication will be
attempted immediately.
The button only has effect for successfully authenticated clients on the port and will not
cause the clients to get temporarily unauthorized.
Reinitialize: Forces a reinitialization of the clients on the port and thereby a
reauthentication immediately. The clients will transfer to the unauthorized state while the
reauthentication is in progress.
