3-2After the client is patched and compliant with the required security standard, the security policy serverreissues an ACL to the switch, which then assigns access right to the client so that the client canaccess more network resources.EAD ConfigurationThe EAD configuration includes:z Configuring the attributes of access users (such as username, user type, and password). For localauthentication, you need to configure these attributes on the switch; for remote authentication, youneed to configure these attributes on the AAA sever.z Configuring a RADIUS scheme.z Configuring the IP address of the security policy server.z Associating the ISP domain with the RADIUS scheme.EAD is commonly used in RADIUS authentication environment.This section mainly describes the configuration of security policy server IP address.
