Configuring Access Guardian Configuring Access Guardian Policies
OmniSwitch AOS Release 6 Network Configuration Guide September 2009 page 34-27
To configure a non-supplicant policy that will not perform MAC authentication, use the 802.1x non-
supplicant policy command. The following parameter keywords are available with this command to spec-
ify one or more policies for classifying devices
:
Note that this type of policy does not use 802.1x or MAC authentication. As a result, all of the available
policy keywords restrict the assignment of the non-supplicant device to only those VLANs that are not
authenticated VLANs. The pass and fail keywords are not used when configuring this type of policy.
Non-supplicant Policy Examples
The following table provides example non-supplicant policy commands and a description of how the
resulting policy is applied to classify supplicant devices:
supplicant policy keywords
group-mobility
user-network-profile
vlan
default-vlan
block
Supplicant Policy Command Example Description
802.1x 1/24 non-supplicant policy authentication
pass group-mobility default-vlan fail vlan 10 block
If the MAC authentication process is successful
but does not return a VLAN ID for the device, then
the following occurs:
1 Group Mobility VLAN or UNP mobile rules
are applied.
2 If Group Mobility classification fails, then the
device is assigned to the default VLAN for
port 1/24.
If the device fails MAC authentication, then the
following occurs:
1 If VLAN 10 exists and is not an authenticated
VLAN, the device is assigned to VLAN 10.
2 If VLAN 10 does not exist or is an authenti-
cated VLAN, the device is blocked from
accessing the switch on port 1/24.
802.1x 1/48 non-supplicant policy authentication
vlan 10 default-vlan
If the MAC authentication process is successful
but does not return a VLAN ID for the device, then
the following occurs:
1 The device is assigned to VLAN 10.
2 If VLAN 10 does not exist, then the device is
assigned to the default VLAN for port 1/48.
If the device fails MAC authentication, the device
is blocked from accessing the switch on port 1/48.
