11.2.5 Creating an Embedded MAC Authentication DB
After you set up the environment for the MAC-based authentication system and complete the configuration process, the next step is to create the internal MAC-based authentication DB. This section also describes how to make changes to the database contents.
- <Structure of this section>
(1) Registering MAC Addresses
Use the set mac-authentication mac-address command to register a MAC address and VLAN ID for each MAC address that is subject to MAC-based authentication. The following example registers information for five MAC addresses:
- Command input
# set mac-authentication mac-address 0012.e200.1234 100 # set mac-authentication mac-address 0012.e200.5678 100 # set mac-authentication mac-address 0012.e200.9abc 100 # set mac-authentication mac-address 0012.e200.def0 100 # set mac-authentication mac-address 0012.e200.0001 100
(2) Deleting MAC addressing data
The command below deletes a MAC address registered in the database.
- Command input
# remove mac-authentication mac-address 0012.e200.1234
Removes the MAC address 0012.e200.1234 from the database.
(3) Reflection in the built-in MAC certification DB
The commit mac-authentication command applies the changes you made using the set mac-authentication mac-address and remove mac-authentication mac-address commands to the internal MAC-based authentication DB.
- Command input
# commit mac-authentication
