Using the BayStack 420 10/100/1000 Switch
Security
The BayStack 420 Switch security features provide two levels of security for your 
local area network (LAN):
RADIUS-based security—limits administrative access to the switch through 
user authentication
MAC address-based security—limits access to the switch based on allowed 
source MAC addresses
 shows a typical campus configuration using the BayStack 420 Switch 
security features. This example assumes that the switch, the teachers’ offices and 
classrooms, and the library are physically secured. The student dormitory may (or 
may not be) physically secure.
