NGSME16T2H User Manual | 73

For ports in MAC-based Auth. mode, reauthentication doesn't cause direct

communication between the switch and the client, so this will not detect whether the

client is still attached or not, and the only way to free any resources is to age the

entry.

Hold Time

This setting applies to the following modes, i.e. modes using the Port Security

functionality to secure MAC addresses:

Single 802.1X

Multi 802.1X

MAC-Based Auth.

If a client is denied access - either because the RADIUS server denies the client

access or because the RADIUS server request times out (according to the timeout

specified on the "Configuration→Security→AAA" page) - the client is put on hold in

the Unauthorized state. The hold timer does not count during an on-going

authentication.

In MAC-based Auth. mode, the switch will ignore new frames coming from the client

during the hold time.

The Hold Time can be set to a number between 10 and 1000000 seconds.

RADIUS-Assigned QoS Enabled

RADIUS-assigned QoS provides a means to centrally control the traffic class to

which traffic coming from a successfully authenticated supplicant is assigned on the

switch. The RADIUS server must be configured to transmit special RADIUS

attributes to take advantage of this feature (see RADIUS-Assigned QoS Enabled

below for a detailed description).

The "RADIUS-Assigned QoS Enabled" checkbox provides a quick way to globally

enable/disable RADIUS-server assigned QoS Class functionality. When checked,

the individual ports' ditto setting determine whether RADIUS-assigned QoS Class is

enabled on that port. When unchecked, RADIUS-server assigned QoS Class is

disabled on all ports.

RADIUS-Assigned VLAN Enabled

RADIUS-assigned VLAN provides a means to centrally control the VLAN on which a

successfully authenticated supplicant is placed on the switch. Incoming traffic will be

classified to and switched on the RADIUS-assigned VLAN. The RADIUS server

must be configured to transmit special RADIUS attributes to take advantage of this

feature (see RADIUS-Assigned VLAN Enabled below for a detailed description).
