User’s Manual of IGS-801M 4.5 VLANs VLAN Overview A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain. It allows you to isolate network traffic so only members of the VLAN receive traffic from the same VLAN members. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plug into the same switch physically.
User’s Manual of IGS-801M ■ 802.1Q VLAN Tags The figure below shows the 802.1Q VLAN tag. There are four additional octets inserted after the source MAC address. Their presence is indicated by a value of 0x8100 in the Ether Type field. When a packet's Ether Type field is equal to 0x8100, the packet carries the IEEE 802.1Q/802.1p tag.
User’s Manual of IGS-801M ■ Port VLAN ID Packets that are tagged (are carrying the 802.1Q VID information) can be transmitted from one 802.1Q compliant network device to another with the VLAN information intact. This allows 802.1Q VLAN to span network devices (and indeed, the entire network – if all network devices are 802.1Q compliant). Every physical port on a switch has a PVID. 802.1Q ports are also assigned a PVID, for use within the switch.
User’s Manual of IGS-801M either manually or dynamically using GVRP. However, if you want a port on this switch to participate in one or more VLANs, but none of the intermediate network devices nor the host at the other end of the connection supports VLANs, then you should add this port to the VLAN as an untagged port.

User’s Manual of IGS-801M 4.9 802.1X Network Access Control Overview of 802.1X (Port-Based) Authentication In the 802.1X-world, the user is called the supplicant, the switch is the authenticator, and the RADIUS server is the authentication server. The switch acts as the man-in-the-middle, forwarding requests and responses between the supplicant and the authentication server. Frames sent between the supplicant and the switch are special 802.1X frames, known as EAPOL (EAP Over LANs) frames.
User’s Manual of IGS-801M 4.9.1 Understanding IEEE 802.1X Port-Based Authentication The IEEE 802.1X standard defines a client-server-based access control and authentication protocol that restricts unauthorized clients from connecting to a LAN through publicly accessible ports. The authentication server authenticates each client connected to a switch port before making available any services offered by the switch or the LAN. Until the client is authenticated, 802.
User’s Manual of IGS-801M Switch (802.1X device)—controls the physical access to the network based on the authentication status of the z client. The switch acts as an intermediary (proxy) between the client and the authentication server, requesting identity information from the client, verifying that information with the authentication server, and relaying a response to the client.
User’s Manual of IGS-801M Figure 4-9-2 EAP message exchange Ports in Authorized and Unauthorized States The switch port state determines whether or not the client is granted access to the network. The port starts in the unauthorized state. While in this state, the port disallows all ingress and egress traffic except for 802.1X protocol packets. When a client is successfully authenticated, the port transitions to the authorized state, allowing all traffic for the client to flow normally.
User’s Manual of IGS-801M 4.9.2 RADIUS Server Configuration This page allows you to configure the IEEE 802.1X authentication system and port settings. The IEEE 802.1X standard defines a port-based access control procedure that prevents unauthorized access to a network by requiring users to first submit credentials for authentication. A central server, the RADIUS server, determines whether the user is allowed access to the network. This page is to configure the RADIUS server connection features.
