Conguring a Mobility Prole
A Mobility Prole is a way of specifying, on a per-user basis, those users who are allowed
access to specied DWL-8220AP access ports and wired authentication ports on a switch.
In this way, you can constrain the areas to which a user can roam. You rst create a
Mobility Prole, assign it to one or more users, and nally enable the Mobility Prole feature
on the DWS-1008 switch.
Use the following command to create a Mobility Prole by giving it a name and identifying
the accessible port or ports:
set mobility-prole name name {port {none | all | port-list}} | {dap {none | all | dap-num}}
Specifying none prevents users assigned to the Mobility Prole from accessing any DWL-8220AP
access ports, Distributed APs, or wired authentication ports on the DWS-1008 switch.
Specifying all allows the users access to all of the ports or Distributed APs.
Specifying an individual port or Distributed AP number or a list limits access to those ports or
APs. For example, the following command creates a Mobility Prole named roses-profile that
allows access through ports 2 through 4, port 7, and port 9:
DWS-1008# set mobility-prole name roses-prole port 2-4,7,9
success: change accepted.
You can then assign this Mobility Prole to one or more users. For example, to assign the
Mobility Prole roses-profile to all users at EXAMPLE\, type the following command:
DWS-1008# set user EXAMPLE\* attr mobility-prole roses-prole
success: change accepted.
During 802.1X authorization for clients at EXAMPLE\, MSS must search for the Mobility Prole
named roses-profile. If it is not found, the authorization fails and clients with usernames like
EXAMPLE\jose and EXAMPLE\tamara are rejected.
If roses-profile is congured for EXAMPLE\ users on your DWS-1008 switch, MSS checks
its port list. If, for example, the current port for EXAMPLE\jose’s connection is on the list of
allowed ports specied in roses-profile, the connection is allowed to proceed. If the port is
not in the list (for example, EXAMPLE\jose is on port 12, which is not in the port list), the
authorization fails and client EXAMPLE\jose is rejected.
The Mobility Prole feature is disabled by default. You must enable Mobility Prole attributes
on the switch to use it. You can enable or disable the feature for the whole DWS-1008 switch
only. If the Mobility Prole feature is disabled, all Mobility Prole attributes are ignored.
To put Mobility Prole attributes into effect on an DWS-1008 switch, type the following
command:
DWS-1008# set mobility-prole mode enable
success: change accepted.
