To create a MAC user group and assign users to it:

1 Access the Create MAC User Group wizard:

a Select the Configuration tool bar option.

b In the Organizer panel, click the plus sign next to the WX switch. 

c Click the plus sign next to AAA.

d Select Local User Database.

e In the Task List panel, select MAC User Group. 

2 In the User Group Name box, type a name for the MAC address user 

group (1 to 60 alphanumeric characters, with no spaces or tabs).

3 To set authorization attributes for MAC addresses in the group, click 

Next and go to step 5. 

4 Otherwise, if you plan to set authorization attributes in another way, such 

as configuring default AAA attribute values for the SSID the user will 
access, click Finish.

5 In the VLAN Name box, select or type the VLAN that the group belongs to 

(1 to 16 alphanumeric characters, with no spaces or tabs). The WX switch

information on VLANs, see “Viewing and Configuring VLANs” on 
page 206.

6 In the attribute row you want to configure, click the Attribute Value 

column.

See Table 22 on page 293 for a description of user attributes and their 
values.

7 Type the new attribute value in lowercase characters. ACL names are 

case-sensitive. 

8 Repeat step 5 through step 7 for each attribute value you want to 

change.

9 To add MAC addresses to the group, click Next.

10 Select users in the Available MAC Address Users list.

11 Click Add to move them to the Current MAC Address Users list.
