Using 802.1X authentication with other features
ACL assignment
You can specify an ACL for an 802.1X user to control the user's access to network resources. After
the user passes 802.1X authentication, the authentication server assigns the ACL to the access port
to filter traffic from this user. The access port drops only packets that match deny rules in the ACL.
The authentication server can be the local access device or a RADIUS server. In either case, you
must configure the ACL on the access device.
To ensure a successful ACL assignment, make sure the ACL does not contain rules that match
source MAC addresses.
To change the access control criteria for the user, you can use one of the following methods:
•
Modify ACL rules on the access device.
•
Specify another authorization ACL on the authentication server.
For more information about ACLs, see
ACL and QoS Configuration Guide
.
User profile assignment
You can specify a user profile for an 802.1X user to control the user's access to network resources.
After the user passes 802.1X authentication, the authentication server assigns the user profile to the
user for filtering traffic. The authentication server can be the local access device or a RADIUS server.
In either case, you must configure the user profile on the access device.
To change the user's access permissions, you can use one of the following methods:
•
Modify the user profile configuration on the access device.
•
Specify another user profile for the user on the authentication server.

EAD assistant
Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD) is an integrated endpoint access control solution of Hewlett
Packard Enterprise to improve the threat defensive capability of a network. The solution enables the
security client, security policy server, access device, and third-party server to operate together. If a
terminal device seeks to access an EAD network, it must have an EAD client, which performs 802.1X
authentication.
The EAD assistant feature enables the access device to redirect a user that is seeking to access the
network to download and install an EAD client. This feature eliminates the administrative task to
deploy EAD clients.
EAD assistant is implemented by the following functionality:
•
Free IP.
A free IP is a freely accessible network segment, which has a limited set of network resources
such as software and DHCP servers. To ensure security strategy compliance, an
unauthenticated user can access only this segment to perform operations. For example, the
user can download EAD client from a software server or obtain a dynamic IP address from a
DHCP server.
•
Redirect URL.
If an unauthenticated 802.1X user is using a Web browser to access the network, the EAD
assistant feature redirects the user to a specific URL. For example, you can use this feature to
redirect the user to the EAD client software download page.
