Nortel WLAN Security Switch 2300 Series Configuration Guide
Assigning a Security ACL to a User or a Group
Once a security access control list (ACL) is defined and committed, it can be applied dynamically and auto-
matically to users and user groups through the 802.1X authentication and authorization process. When you
assign a Filter-Id attribute to a user or group, the security ACL name value is entered as an authorization
attribute into the user or group record in the local WSS database or RADIUS server.
(For details about security ACLs, see “Configuring and Managing Security ACLs,” on page 351.)
Assigning a Security ACL Locally
To use the local WSS database to restrict a user, a MAC user, or a group of users or MAC users to the permis-
sions stored within a committed security ACL, use the following commands:
You can set filters for incoming and outgoing packets:
•Use acl-name.in to filter traffic that enters the WSS switch from users through an AP access point or
wired authentication port, or from the network through a network port.
•Use acl-name.out to filter traffic sent from the WSS switch to users through an AP access point or wired
authentication port, or from the network through a network port.
For example, the following command applies security ACL acl-101 to packets coming into the WSS from user
Jose:
23x0# set user Jose attr filter-id acl-101.in
success: change accepted.
The following command applies the incoming filters of acl-101 to the users who belong to the group
eastcoasters:
23x0# set usergroup eastcoasters attr filter-id acl-101.in
Note. If the Filter-Id value returned through the authentication and authorization process
does not match the name of a committed security ACL in the WSS, the user fails
authorization and cannot be connected.
Security ACL Target Commands

password

set usergroup groupname attr filter-id acl-name.out
User authenticated by a MAC
address
set mac-user username attr filter-id acl-name.in
set mac-user username attr filter-id acl-name.out
Group of users authenticated
by a MAC address
set mac-usergroup groupname attr filter-id acl-name.in
set mac-usergroup groupname attr filter-id acl-name.out
