By default, the setting is disabled.
To enable the switch to create dynamic VLANs, use the following command:
configure netlogin dynamic-vlan [disable | enable]
When enabled, the switch dynamically creates VLANs. Remember, dynamically created VLANs are not permanent nor are user-created VLANs. The switch uses the VLAN ID supplied by the RADIUS attributes (as described below) to create the VLAN. The switch only creates a dynamic VLAN if the requested VLAN, indicated by the VLAN ID, does not currently exist on the switch.
Extreme-specific VSAs have greater precedence than IETF Tunnel-Private-Group-Id attribute if both are sent using RADIUS Access-Accept. For example, if Extreme-Netlogin-Extended-Vlan 211: Uv1;Tcorp and Tunnel-Private-Group-Id:200 are both sent, MAC is authenticated on VLAN v1 and corp, and not on vlanid 200.
Note
If the ASCII string contains only numbers, it is interpreted as the VLAN ID. Dynamic VLANS support only numerical VLAN IDs; VLAN names are not supported.The switch automatically generates the VLAN name in the following format: SYS_VLAN_TAG where TAG specifies the VLAN ID. For example, a dynamic VLAN with an ID of 10 has the name SYS_VLAN_0010.
Note
Like all VLAN names, dynamic VLAN names are unique. If you create a VLAN and use the name of an existing dynamic VLAN, the switch now sees the dynamic VLAN as a user-created VLAN and will save this VLAN to the switch configuration. If this occurs, the switch does not delete the VLAN after the supplicants are authenticated and moved to the permanent VLAN.For more information on Extreme Networks VSAs, see Extreme Networks VSAs.
