Multiple Host Multiple VLAN

With the MHMV feature, you can assign multiple authenticated devices to different VLANs on the same EAP-enabled port using device MAC addresses. Using RADIUS VLAN attributes, different clients can access different VLANS. This separates traffic for different MAC clients.

In MHMV mode, the port-priority assigned by the RADIUS server is configured by MAC address for each authenticated client. After configuration, the QoS level on the port does not change.

Use MHMV to assign multiple authenticated devices to different VLANs on the same port. Clients can access different VLANs access using the MAC address of the devices. Different clients with different level of access (unauthorized to authorized) in different VLANs and with different QoS priorities, can exist on the same port.

With MHMV, EAP Multihost VLAN supports tagged and untagged ports. A port can be a member of multiple tagged and untagged VLANs.

In MHMV mode, MAC based VLANs support traffic separation between different authenticated MAC clients. MAC based VLAN traffic separation applies only to untagged VLAN traffic. If the data traffic is tagged and if VLAN is configured on the port, then the traffic is forwarded to the VLAN associated with the tag.
