Configuring Match FQDN Option
You can also use the “match FQDN” option for a server match rule. With a match FQDN rule, the server is selected
if the <domain> portion of the user information in the formats <domain>\<user> or <user>@<domain>
exactly
matches a specified string. Note the following caveats when using a match FQDN rule:
l This rule does
not
support client information in the host/<pc-name>.<domain> format, so it is not useful for
802.1x machine authentication.
l The match FQDN option performs matches on only the <domain> portion of the user information sent in an
authentication request. The match-authstring option (described previously) allows you to match all or a portion
of the user information sent in an authentication request.

Trimming Domain Information from Requests
Before the controller forwards an authentication request to a specified server, it can truncate the domain-specific
portion of the user information. This is useful when user entries on the authenticating server do not include domain
information. You can specify this option with any server match rule. This option is only applicable when the user
information is sent to the controller in the following formats:
l <domain>\<user> the <domain>\ portion is truncated
l <user>@<domain> — the @<domain> portion is truncated
NOTE: This option does not support client information sent in the format host/<pc-name>.<domain>
