Operation Manual – VLANH3C S5500-EI Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 VLAN Configuration1-12z Auto configuration though the authentication server (that is, VLAN issuing)The device associates MAC addresses and VLANs dynamically based on theinformation provided by the authentication server. If a user goes offline, thecorresponding MAC address-to-VLAN association is removed automatically. Autoconfiguration requires MAC address-to–VLAN mapping relationship be configured onthe authentication server. For detailed information, refer to 802.1x Configuration.The two configuration methods can be used at the same time, that is, you can configurea MAC address-to-VLAN entry on both the local device and the authentication serer atthe same time. Note that the MAC address-to-VLAN entry configuration takes effectonly when the configuration on the local device is consistent with that on theauthentication server.1.5.2 Configuring a MAC Address-Based VLANNote:MAC address-based VLANs are available only on Hybrid ports.Follow these steps to configure a MAC address-based VLAN:To do...
