Configuring an HABP client
An HABP client is usually configured on each device that is attached to the authentication device. After receiving an HABP request from the HABP server, an HABP client responds to the request, delivering its MAC address to the server, and forwards the HABP request to its attached switches. HABP packets are transmitted in the VLAN to which the HABP client belongs.
