Usage Guidelines
-
A DHCP server must be available, and a DHCP range must be configured for the port or ports in the VLAN on which you want to enable Network Login.
-
The switch must be configured as a RADIUS client, and the RADIUS server must be configured to enable the network login capability.
For ISP mode login, no special conditions are required. A RADIUS server must be used for authentication.
Network login is used on a per port basis. A port that is tagged can belong to more than one VLAN. In this case, network login can be enabled on one port for each VLAN.
Windows authentication is not supported via network login.
Example
The following command configures network login on port 2:9 using web-based authentication:
enable netlogin ports 2:9 web-based
