Configuring Ethernet Ports
3. Click Update Settings to save your changes.
802.1X Configure the port as an 802.1X authenticator or
supplicant. The following options are available:
■ Disabled: No 802.1X controls are applied to
this port.
■ Authenticator (Port-based): Only one of the
attached MAC hosts must be authorized for
all hosts to be granted access to the network.
■ Authenticator (MAC-based): Each MAC host
is individually authenticated.
■ Supplicant: The port acts as a supplicant to
an upstream authenticator. Configure a port
as Supplicant if the port is a Trunk Port used
to connect the AP to a LAN switch.
See “
Working with 802.1X on Wired Ethernet
Ports” on page 96 for more information.
VLAN Untag ID: Enter a valid VLAN ID in this field to
segment traffic arriving on this port to a specific
VLAN. Default is 1. Valid VLAN entries are 1-4094.
Members: Displays the VLAN membership of the
port. (Membership is configurable only for the
General port type.)
See “
Working with Port-Based VLANs” on
page 96 for more information.
Insert DHCP Option 82 When this option is enabled for an Ethernet port,
additional information will be encapsulated in
DHCP option 82 and inserted into DHCP request
packets.
Current format of option 82 is:
Circuit ID sub-option:
ETH:<IFNAME>:<VLAN>:N/A:
<MODEL>:<HOSTNAME>:<DEVMAC>
This option supports the ability for a service
provider to allocate IP addresses intelligently by
considering information on the origin of the IP
allocation request.
Client Fingerprinting When this option is enabled, the AP attempts to
identify client devices by their operating system,
device type and host name, if available.
