Hello everyone !
A customer have a particular demand. I'm going to try to explain it :
He has stacks of switches (from 4 to 9 members).
Some ports are "PROD" ports and the others are "GUEST" ports.
All these ports à configured for 802.1X authentication. If the authentication is succesful, then ClearPass push the correct vlan, that's fine.
However, when the authentication fails, then there is a fallback vlan which depends on the type of port :
- If the port is a "GUEST", then the fallback vlan is "VLAN GUEST".
- If the port is a "PROD", then the fallback vlan will depends on the port number in the stack
-if 1<port number<48 then the fallback vlan is VLAN_100
-if 49<port number<96 then the fallback vlan is VLAN_200
-if 97<port number<144 then the fallback vlan is VLAN_300
-ETC.
He asked me if there is a fast and easy way to change the type of port, without reconfiguring the port manually.
For example the port number 38 is a "GUEST" port, and he wants to changes it into a "PROD" port, without reconfiguring the fallback VLANs.
According to me, some programmation is needed. What would be needed to make that possible ?
Thanks in advance for your help and for reading ! :)
PS : I put a schema, to make it the most understandable !
