Information for the 802.1X authentication rule for the machine (host/bob-laptop.mycorp.com)
is also displayed. However, the
bonded
option is configured only for the user’s authentication
rule. The
bonded
option applies only to the authentication rules for users, not the authentication
rules for machines.
Configuring Authentication and Authorization by MAC Address
You must sometimes authenticate users based on the MAC addresses of their devices rather
than a username-password or certificate. For example, some Voice-over-IP (VoIP) phones
and personal digital assistants (PDAs) do not support 802.1X authentication. If a client does
not support 802.1X, MSS attempts to perform MAC authentication for the client instead. The
switch can discover the MAC address of the device from received frames and can use the
MAC address in place of a username for the client.
