Netlogin with AP on G1's, before AP Aware?

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Before the onset of G2 switches with policy and the ability to utilise AP Aware, I remember seeing an article that configured netlogin to simulate it?

In essence it replicates what AP Aware does on the switch and allows authentication to be performed on just the AP and not all end-systems coming through it.

Have tried to track down the information but been struggling.

Hoping someone might remember and point me in the right direction.

Many thanks in advance.

Yes, I'm using Wing AP with local-bridging (VX9000 CTRL) so authentication takes place on the AP (dot1x, web-based/dot1x).

We would like to put AP anywhere on the 5420 switch.

If we limit allowed-users to 1 on every port, VoIP Phones + Computer might not work.

I'm doing some tests on labs... I'll let you know if I found a good configuration.
