Parameter fixed: Uses the MAC authentication username type of fixed username.
account name: Specifies the fixed username. The name argument is a
case-insensitive string of 1 to 55 characters and defaults to mac.
password { cipher | simple } password: Specifies the fixed password for the fixed
username. Using the cipher keyword displays the password in cipher text. Using
the simple keyword displays the password in plain text. In the former case, the
password can be either a string of 1 to 63 characters in plain text or a string of 24
or 88 characters in cipher text. In the latter case, the password must be a string of
1 to 63 characters in plain text.
mac-address: Adopts the user’s source MAC address as the username, which is
case-insensitive.
with-hyphen: Indicates that the MAC address must include “-”, like
xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx. The letters in the address must be in lower case.
without-hyphen: Indicates that the MAC address must not include “-”, like
xxxxxxxxxxxx. The letters in the address must be in lower case.
Description Use the
mac-authentication user-name-format command to configure the
username and password for MAC authentication.
Use the
undo mac-authentication user-name-format command to restore
the default.
By default, a user’s source MAC address is used as the username and password.
And whether “-” is necessary in the MAC address varies with devices.
Note that:
■ When using the type of fixed username, you must also manually configure the
password.
■ When the user’s source MAC address is used as the username, the password is
also that MAC address.
■ In cipher display mode, a password in plain text with no more than 16
characters will be encrypted into a password in cipher text with 24 characters,
