Scenario 4: Custom – Multi Host
Enabling RFC5176 – Multiple Connections will force the system to use the RFC5176 Message type and Attribute Groups under RFC5176 – Multiple Connections to build up the CoA/Disconnect message if the following is true:
-
The port has multiple hosts connected to it.
-
There is no IP Phone connecting, or there is an IP phone connecting but RFC5176 – Daisy Chain is disabled.
For example, this port here has two hosts connected: a PC and an IP Phone.
-
In Network > Model Configuration, enable RFC5176 – Multiple Connections, disable RFC5176 – Daisy Chain and set up type and attribute group under RFC5176 – Multiple Connections.
-
When a host on a port with multiple hosts switches VLAN, FortiNAC will use the multiple connection configurations for sending DM/CoA Messages no matter what the setting in Logical network is.
