RADIUS-Assigned QoS Enabled: When RADIUS-Assigned QoS is both globally enabled and enabled
(checked) on a given port, the switch reacts to QoS Class information carried
in the RADIUS Access-Accept packet transmitted by the RADIUS server when
a supplicant is successfully authenticated. If present and valid, traffic
received on the supplicant's port will be classified to the given QoS Class. If
(re-)authentication fails or the RADIUS Access-Accept packet no longer
carries a QoS Class or it's invalid, or the supplicant is otherwise no longer
present on the port, the port's QoS Class is immediately reverted to the
original QoS Class (which may be changed by the administrator in the
meanwhile without affecting the RADIUS-assigned).
This option is only available for single-client modes, i.e.
• Port-based 802.1X
• Single 802.1X
RADIUS attributes used in identifying a QoS Class:
Refer to the written documentation for a description of the RADIUS
attributes needed in order to successfully identify a QoS Class. The User-
Priority-Table attribute defined in RFC4675 forms the basis for identifying
the QoS Class in an Access-Accept packet.
Only the first occurrence of the attribute in the packet will be considered,
and to be valid, it must follow this rule:
All 8 octets in the attribute's value must be identical and consist of ASCII
characters in the range '0' - '3', which translates into the desired QoS Class in
the range [0; 3].
RADIUS-Assigned VLAN Enabled: When RADIUS-Assigned VLAN is both globally enabled and enabled
(checked) for a given port, the switch reacts to VLAN ID information carried
in the RADIUS Access-Accept packet transmitted by the RADIUS server when
a supplicant is successfully authenticated. If present and valid, the port's
Port VLAN ID will be changed to this VLAN ID, the port will be set to be a
member of that VLAN ID, and the port will be forced into VLAN unaware
mode. Once assigned, all traffic arriving on the port will be classified and
switched on the RADIUS-assigned VLAN ID.
If (re-)authentication fails or the RADIUS Access-Accept packet no longer
carries a VLAN ID or it's invalid, or the supplicant is otherwise no longer
present on the port, the port's VLAN ID is immediately reverted to the
original VLAN ID (which may be changed by the administrator in the
meanwhile without affecting the RADIUS-assigned).
This option is only available for single-client modes, i.e.
