Configuring 802.1X and Port-Based Security

How Does the Authentication Server Assign DiffServ Filters?

The PowerConnect M6220, M6348, M8024, and M8024-k switches allow the

external 802.1X Authenticator or RADIUS server to assign DiffServ policies

to users that authenticate to the switch. When a host (supplicant) attempts

to connect to the network through a port, the switch contacts the 802.1X

authenticator or RADIUS server, which then provides information to the

switch about which DiffServ policy to assign the host (supplicant). The

application of the policy is applied to the host after the authentication

process has completed.
