Specify how RADIUS request attributes are formatted 7.4.2

Starting in FortiOS 7.4.2 with FortiSwitchOS 7.4.1, you can specify how the following RADIUS request attributes are formatted when they are sent to the RADIUS server:

  • User-Name

    You can select a colon, hyphen, or single hyphen to use as a delimiter, or you can select none for no delimiter. By default, you can use a hyphen as the delimiter.

  • User-Password

    You can select a colon, hyphen, or single hyphen to use as a delimiter, or you can select none for no delimiter. By default, you can use a hyphen as the delimiter.

  • Called-Station-Id

    You can select a colon, hyphen, or single hyphen to use as a delimiter, or you can select none for no delimiter. By default, you can use a hyphen as the delimiter.

  • Calling-Station-Id

    You can select a colon, hyphen, or single hyphen to use as a delimiter, or you can select none for no delimiter. By default, you can use a hyphen as the delimiter.

The following are examples of MAC addresses with the different delimiters:

  • Using a colon as a delimiter: 00:11:22:33:44:55

  • Using a hyphen as a delimiter: 00-11-22-33-44-55

  • Using a single hyphen as a delimiter: 001122-334455

  • Using none for no delimiter: 001122334455

You can also select whether to use lowercase or uppercase letters in MAC addresses. By default, lowercase letters are used.

To specify how RADIUS request attributes are formatted:

config switch-controller managed-switch

edit <FortiSwitch_serial_number>

config 802-1X-settings

set local-override enable

set mac-username-delimiter {colon| hyphen | none | single-hyphen}

set mac-password-delimiter {colon| hyphen | none | single-hyphen}

set mac-calling-station-delimiter {colon| hyphen | none | single-hyphen}

set mac-called-station-delimiter {colon| hyphen | none | single-hyphen}

set mac-case {lowercase | uppercase}

end

next

end
