3Com 5500-SI Switch User Manual


 
416 CHAPTER 21: 802.1X CONFIGURATION
If the threshold is reached, the switch sends messages containing the user's
remaining online time to the client at the interval you configured.
The client keeps the user informed of the updated remaining online time through
a dialog box.
Perform the following configuration in ISP domain view.
By default, messenger alert is disabled on the switch.
Configuring Self-Service
Server URL
The self-service-url enable command can be used to configure self-service server
uniform resource locator (URL). This command must be incorporated with a RADIUS
server (such as a CAMS) that supports self-service. Self-service means that users can
manage their accounts and card numbers by themselves. And a server with the
self-service software is called a self-service server.
Once this function is enabled on the switch, users can locate the self-service server
and perform self-management through the following operations:
Select Change user password on the 802.1x client.
After the client opens the default explorer (IE or NetScape), locate the specified
URL page used to change the user password on the self-service server.
Change user password on this page.
Perform the following configuration in ISP domain view.
By default, the self-service server URL is not configured on the switch.
Note that, if "
?" is contained in the URL, you must replace it with "|" when inputting
the URL in the command line.
The "Change user password" option is available only when the user passes the
authentication; otherwise, this option is in grey and unavailable.
