Mac-Address Authentication on 5400

[Tom Hardy]

Hello All,

I need to setup mac-address authentication on 5400. I want to create a pool of mac -addresses and authorize them to use any port on the hp switch.

Another thing that i might want to do in the future is to restrict individual port access by mac- address.

Can someone please give me the command to do this.

Thanks

[Tom Hardy]

anyone? :)

I've found this document to be very useful for this, same thing works on your ProCurve switches:

hi Tom
restiricted individual port by mac address

address-limit (how match mac address permision on port max.32 mac address )

action send-disable (to want different mac connection port ,is port turn disable state
