Web and MAC Authentication
Configuring MAC Authentication on the Switch
Configuring Custom Messages
This feature allows administrators to configure custom messages that are
displayed when authentication with the RADIUS server fails. The messages
are appended to the existing internal web page that displays during the
authentication process. Messages can be configured using the CLI, or centrally
using the RADIUS server, and can provide a description of the reason for the
failure as well as possible steps to take to resolve the authentication issue.
There is no change to the current web authentication functionality..
