Specifying a NAS ID profile for an interface

In some networks, user access points are identified by their access VLANs. Network carriers need to use NAS-identifiers to identify user access points. With the NAS ID profile specified on an interface, when a user logs in from the interface, the access device checks the specified profile to obtain the NAS ID that is bound with the access VLAN. The value of this NAS ID is used as the NAS-identifier attribute in the RADIUS packets to be sent to the RADIUS server.

The NAS ID profile defines the binding relationship between VLANs and NAS IDs. A NAS ID-VLAN binding is defined by the nas-id id-value bind vlan vlan-id command, which is described in detail in AAA configuration commands in the Security Command Reference.

If no NAS-ID profile is specified for an interface or no matching binding is found in the specified profile, the device uses the device name as the interface NAS ID.

To configure a NAS ID profile on an interface:
