Chapter 46 Configuring 802.1X Port-Based Authentication
Controlling Switch Access with RADIUS
For example, this AV pair activates Cisco’s multiple named ip address pools feature during IP
authorization (during PPP IPCP address assignment):
cisco-avpair= ”ip:addr-pool=first“
This example shows how to provide a user logging in from a switch with immediate access to privileged
EXEC commands:
cisco-avpair= ”shell:priv-lvl=15“
This example shows how to specify an authorized VLAN in the RADIUS server database:
cisco-avpair= ”tunnel-type(#64)=VLAN(13)”
cisco-avpair= ”tunnel-medium-type(#65)=802 media(6)”
cisco-avpair= ”tunnel-private-group-ID(#81)=vlanid”
This example shows how to apply an input ACL in ASCII format to an interface for the duration of this
connection:
cisco-avpair= “ip:inacl#1=deny ip 10.10.10.10 0.0.255.255 20.20.20.20 255.255.0.0”
cisco-avpair= “ip:inacl#2=deny ip 10.10.10.10 0.0.255.255 any”
cisco-avpair= “mac:inacl#3=deny any any decnet-iv”
This example shows how to apply an output ACL in ASCII format to an interface for the duration of this
connection:
cisco-avpair= “ip:outacl#2=deny ip 10.10.10.10 0.0.255.255 any”
Other vendors have their own unique vendor-IDs, options, and associated VSAs. For more information
about vendor-IDs and VSAs, see RFC 2138, “Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS).”
To configure the switch to recognize and use VSAs, perform these steps:
Note For a complete list of RADIUS attributes or more information about vendor-specific attribute 26, see the
“RADIUS Attributes” appendix in the Cisco IOS Security Configuration Guide, Release 12.2 from the
Cisco.com page under Documentation > Cisco IOS Software > 12.2 Mainline > Command
References.
Command Purpose
Step 1
Switch# configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2
Switch(config)# radius-server vsa
send [accounting |
authentication]
Enables the switch to recognize and use VSAs as defined by RADIUS IETF
attribute 26.
• (Optional) Use the accounting keyword to limit the set of recognized
vendor-specific attributes to only accounting attributes.
• (Optional) Use the authentication keyword to limit the set of
recognized vendor-specific attributes to only authentication attributes.
If you enter this command without keywords, both accounting and
authentication vendor-specific attributes are used.
Step 3
Switch(config)# end
Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
Switch# show running-config
Verifies your settings.
Step 5
Switch# copy running-config
startup-config
(Optional) Saves your entries in the configuration file.
