iMC UAM providing separate VLAN for each access device, regardless where user logs on

Hello 

 

I am trying to figure out how to make UAM issue separate VLAN regarding to which wired/wireless access device user authenticates.

Meaning - there are several floors on the building. Each floor has it's own data VLAN. 

User could authenticate in any of those devices and they should receive appropriate VLAN (floor VLAN so to speak) depending on which floor they are. 

 

Is that even possible with current version of iMC ? v7.0?

Hi Marcis,

 

There are 2 options here:

* UAM based with Access scenario's in the Access Service:

- define access device groups (1 group with all switches of each floor)

- define Access policy per vlan to be used

- open Access service and define different scenario's : per device group select different access policy

* Switch based (would seem easier to me):

- in UAM define a vlan name instead of vlan ID (e.g. DATA or VOICE )

- on the switches define the name on the correct vlan

 e.g.

# floor 1

vlan 10

 name DATA

vlan 11

 name VOICE

# floor 2

vlan 20

 name DATA

vlan 21

 name VOICE

 

Hope this helps,

 

Best regards,Peter
