MAC network access rules allow users onto the network by
authenticating their MAC addresses instead of their user names.
authenticating their MAC addresses instead of their user names.
During log on, if the username does not match an 802.1X authentication
rule, but the MAC address of the user’s NIC or Voice-over-IP (VoIP) phone
and the SSID (if wireless) do match a MAC authentication rule, MSS
checks the RADIUS server group or local database for matching user
information. If the MAC address (and password, if on a RADIUS server)
matches, MSS grants access. Otherwise, MSS attempts the fallthru
authentication type, which can be Web, Open Access (last-resort), or
none.
