Network Access (MAC Address Authentication)
Some devices connected to switch ports may not be able to support 802.1X
authentication due to hardware or software limitations. This is often true for
devices such as network printers, IP phones, and some wireless access points. The
switch enables network access from these devices to be controlled by
authenticating device MAC addresses with a central RADIUS server.
Note: RADIUS authentication must be activated and configured properly for the
MAC Address authentication feature to work properly. (See “Configuring
Remote Logon Authentication Servers” on page 238.)
Note: MAC authentication cannot be configured on trunk ports.
