(Optional) Specifying the MAC Address Segment Allowed by MAC Address Authentication

Context

After MAC address authentication is configured on a VLANIF interface, MAC address authentication will be performed for every new MAC address entry generated on the device. To restrict the users for whom MAC address authentication can be performed on the VLANIF interface, you can specify a MAC address segment allowed by MAC address authentication.

Procedure

Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
Run interface interface-type interface-number
The interface view is displayed.
Run mac-authen permit mac-address mac-address mask { mask | mask-length }
The MAC address segment allowed by MAC address authentication is specified.

By default, no MAC address range is specified for MAC address authentication.
