etsysMultiAuthPortMode

Module: ENTERASYS-MULTI-AUTH-MIB

OID (symbolic): ENTERASYS-MULTI-AUTH-MIB::etsysMultiAuthPortMode

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.46.1.2.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object specifies the authorization mode to use for packets received on this interface.

A value of forceUnauthorized(1) indicates that the interface is always unauthenticated.

A value of forceAuthorized(2) indicates that users on this port will always be considered to be authenticated.

A value of authOptional(3) indicates that authentication is optional on this interface. Packets received from unauthenticated users on the interface will be processed using the static configuration of the interface. Users may promote the policy applied to their traffic by actively authenticating on this interface.

A value of authRequired(4) indicates that all packets received on the interface will be dropped until authentication succeeds. Some authentication types, such as PWA, will not be fully functional in this mode of operation.

What is etsysMultiAuthPortMode?

Sets this port's authentication policy: forceUnauthorized always blocks it, forceAuthorized always treats traffic as authenticated, authOptional lets unauthenticated traffic through under the port's static policy while still allowing users to authenticate up to a better policy, and authRequired drops all traffic until authentication succeeds (PWA won't fully work in this last mode).

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.46.1.2.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-MULTI-AUTH-MIB::etsysMultiAuthPortMode

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.46.1.2.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ENTERASYS-MULTI-AUTH-MIB::etsysMultiAuthPortMode.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.46.1.2.1.1.1.1 i <value>
