Insight Managed 28-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP 1G & 2 SFP+ 10G Fiber Ports
If RADIUS-assigned VLANs are enabled, the RADIUS server is includes the VLAN ID in
the 802.1X tunnel attributes of its response message to the device. If dynamic VLAN
creation is enabled on the device and the RADIUS-assigned VLAN does not exist, then
the assigned VLAN is dynamically created. This implies that the client can connect from
any port and can get assigned to the appropriate VLAN. This feature gives flexibility for
clients to move around the network without much additional configuration required.
