Problems solved by technology

Moreover, if the RADIUS server is busy when the user requests to go online again, or the network between the RADIUS server and the access device fails, the RADIUS server will not be able to respond to the user's MAC address authentication request in time, resulting in the user's online failure.

Embodiment Construction

[0025] The embodiment of the present invention provides a flexible MAC address authentication method. For remote authentication users who go online through MAC address authentication through the RADIUS server, when they go offline, their authentication information is added to the temporary local authentication database. When the access device receives the user's MAC address authentication request through the port configured for MAC address authentication by the RADIUS server, it first looks up the user's authentication information from the temporary local authentication database. If it exists, the access device uses the local authentication method. The device completes the MAC address authentication of the corresponding user, so it can reduce the busyness of the RADIUS server to a certain extent, and can also complete the MAC address authentication function more flexibly.

Abstract

The invention discloses an MAC address authentication method and an MAC address authentication device. The MAC address authentication method comprises the steps that: access equipment stores authentication information of a user to a temporary local authentication database when the access equipment performs MAC address authentication through a RADIUS server and the online user gets off line, sets a corresponding aging timer, and deletes the authentication information of the user from the temporary local authentication database when the aging timer times out; and the access equipment queries whether corresponding authentication information exists in the temporary local authentication database when receiving a MAC address authentication request of the user via a port which is configured to perform MAC address authentication by means of the RADIUS server, if so, the access equipment performs local authentication, otherwise, the RADIUS server performs remote authentication. By adopting the MAC address authentication method and the MAC address authentication device, processing burden of the RADIUS server can be alleviated, and the online success rate of the user is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a method and device for authenticating a MAC address. Background technique [0002] MAC address authentication is an authentication method that controls the user's network access rights based on port and MAC address. It does not require the user to install any client software, and the user does not need to manually enter the user name or password during the authentication process. [0003] After the access device detects the user's MAC address for the first time on the port on which MAC address authentication is enabled, it starts MAC address authentication for the user. At present, the access device supports two ways of MAC address authentication: one way is to perform remote authentication through the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server, and the other way is to directly authenticate on the access device. Perform local authentication. [0004] When...
