AUTHENTICATION COMMANDS
AUTH
ROAMING DISCONNECTED
auth roaming disconnected
Overview This command enables the Roaming Authentication feature on an authenticated
interface that is link down. A supplicant (a client device) is not reauthenticated
when moved between authenticated interfaces, providing both interfaces have
the Roaming Authentication feature enabled before the supplicant is moved.
Use the auth roaming enable command before using this command. The auth
roaming disconnected command on its own will have no effect on the operation
of the switch. This command will only come into effect once the base Roaming
Authentication feature is enabled, using the auth roaming enable command.
The no variant of this command disables the Roaming Authentication feature on
an interface, and forces a supplicant to be reauthenticated when moving between
interfaces.
See the Authentication Feature Overview and Configuration Guide for further
information about this feature.
Syntax
auth roaming disconnected
no auth roaming disconnected
Default The Roaming Authentication disconnected feature is disabled by default on an
interface. Authentication status for a roaming supplicant is deleted by default
when an interface goes down.
Mode Interface Configuration for a static channel, a dynamic (LACP) channel group, or a
switch port.
Usage This command allows a supplicant to move to another authenticating interface
without reauthentication, if the link is down for the interface that the supplicant is
moved from.
Note that 802.1X port authentication, or MAC-Authentication, or
Web-Authentication must first be enabled on an interface to use this feature. The
port that the supplicant is moving to must have the same authentication
configuration as the port the supplicant is moving from.
Configure auth roaming enable on an interface before configuring auth roaming
disconnected if you require auth roaming disconnected configured on an interface
for a roaming supplicant.
Roaming Authentication cannot be enabled if DHCP snooping is enabled (service
dhcp-snooping command), and vice versa.
