Security > Dial-in User
Dial-in User feature provides the local authentication server for port security when a
remote (RADIUS) server is not available.
The Dial-in User (local) authentication method allows you to set up 802.1x
authentication parameters internally in the Switch. In this case, the user name and
password combinations are entered with an optional VLAN when they are defined.
Based on these entries, the authentication process of a supplicant is done locally by the
Switch Management Utility using a standard EAPOL (EAP over LAN) transaction.
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page”
on page 5).
2. Click on Security and click on Dial-In User.
3. Review the settings.
To create a dial-in user for local authentication, use the following procedure:
• In the User Name field, type a name for the user.
• In the Password field, type a password for the user.
• In the Dynamic VLAN field, enter the VID of the VLAN which you will allow the
user to access. If you enter 0, this field will be ignored.
Click Add to add the entry to the table.
