I am really new and have never yet tried to use Radius.
We have a network with multiple CRS354 switches.
We want to TRY using a FreeRadius Server and accomplish automatic port to untagged-VLAN assignment based on device MAC address when such a device is plugged in to a port.
And maintain the MAC database on FreeRadius3.
Is this even possible?
This is not for security and this is not a concern.
We would like a port to “configure itself” to be on certain VLANS when a device is plugged in based on it’s MAC address.
And maintain that table and assignment to VLAN information at the FreeRadius.
If this can be done I should be able to figure it out.
But wanted to ask here first to try and find out if this is even possible or impossible for any reason.
And I am super new to Radius never have worked with it yet.
Any reads that I have done seem to be far more complicated than what I am trying to accomplish involving a lot of security and seem to be centered on wifi CAPSMAN and PPPoe.
I am not trying to do anything with wifi just wired ethernet devices.
And no security/authentication features at the device/MAC level.
Thanks!
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks!

Thanks,
Any help and pointers are appreciated.
I currently have no clue if something this simple is possible or a function of radius or not.
Will definitely read and study.
sidenote: that RB3011 got fixed totally.
I imagine you saw the end result on that other post.
