Supplicant Policy Examples
The following table provides example supplicant policy commands and a description of how the resulting
policy is applied to classify supplicant devices:
Configuring Non-supplicant Policies
Non-supplicant policies are used to classify non-802.1x devices connected to 802.1x-enabled switch ports.
There are two types of non-supplicant policies. One type uses MAC authentication to verify the non-
802.1x device. The second type does not perform any authentication and limits device assignment only to
those VLANs that are not authenticated VLANs.
To configure a non-supplicant policy that will perform MAC authentication, use the 802.1x non-suppli-
cant policy authentication command. The following keywords are available with this command to spec-
ify one or more policies for classifying devices:
When multiple policies are specified, the policy is referred to as a compound non-supplicant policy. Note
that the order in which parameters are configured determines the order in which they are applied.
Supplicant Policy Command Example Description
802.1x 1/24 supplicant policy authentication pass
group-mobility default-vlan fail vlan 43 block
If the 802.1x authentication process is successful
but does not return a VLAN ID for the device, then
the following occurs:
1 Group Mobility rules are applied.
2 If Group Mobility classification fails, then the
device is assigned to the default VLAN for
port 1/24.
If the device fails 802.1x authentication, then the
following occurs:
1 If VLAN 43 exists and is not an authenticated
VLAN, then the device is assigned to
VLAN 43.
2 If VLAN 43 does not exist or is an authenti-
cated VLAN, then the device is blocked from
accessing the switch on port 1/24.
802.1x 1/48 supplicant policy authentication
group-mobility vlan 127 default-vlan
If the 802.1x authentication process is successful
but does not return a VLAN ID for the device, then
the following occurs:
1 Group Mobility rules are applied.
2 If Group Mobility classification fails, then the
device is assigned to VLAN 127.
3 If VLAN 127 does not exist, then the device is
assigned to the default VLAN for port 1/48.
If the device fails 802.1x authentication, the device
is blocked on port 1/48.
