RADIUS-administered CoS and rate-limiting

The switches covered in this guide take advantage of vendor-specific attributes (VSAs) applied in a RADIUS server to support these optional, RADIUS-assigned attributes:

  • 802.1p (CoS) priority assignment to inbound traffic on the specified port(s) (port-access authentication only)

  • Per-Port Rate-Limiting on a port with an active link to an authenticated client (port-access authentication only)
