Using Access Guardian Policies Configuring 802.1X
page 23-10 OmniSwitch 6800/6850/9000 Network Configuration Guide June 2006
When multiple policies are specified when configuring a device classification policy, they form a
compound policy. Compound policies that use 802.1x authentication are supplicant policies; all others are
non-supplicant policies.
The order in which policies are applied to client traffic is determined by the order in which the policy was
configured. For example, if a compound non-supplicant policy is configured by specifying MAC authenti-
cation, Group Mobility rules, and default VLAN, then the policies are applied in the following sequence:
1 MAC authentication is performed.
2 If authentication was successful and provided a VLAN ID, the client is assigned to that VLAN and no
further policies are applied.
3 If a VLAN ID was not provided or authentication failed, then Group Mobility rules are applied.
4 If there are no Group Mobility rules that match the client traffic, then the device is learned in the
default VLAN for the port.
See “Configuring Access Guardian Policies” on page 23-14 for more information about how to use and
configure policies.
