Enabling Layer 2 portal authentication
Before enabling Layer 2 portal authentication, make sure that:
The listening IP address of the local portal server is specified.
Layer 3 portal authentication is not enabled on any interface.
Follow these guidelines when you enable Layer 2 portal authentication:
To ensure normal operation of portal authentication on a Layer 2 port, do not enable port security, guest VLAN of 802.1X, or EAD fast deployment of 802.1X on the port.
To support assignment of authorized VLANs, you must enable the MAC-based VLAN function on the port.
