Hey guys,
I would like to achieve the following:
If a known host (identified by MAC address) is connected to any switch within the company network, the corresponding port should be configured automatically (assigned to a specific VLAN). At the same time, the host should automatically be assigned a defined IP address. If the host is unknown, it should end up in a prison guest VLAN.
While doing research, I stumbled upon 802.1x. But if I understand correctly, it only works in conjunction with a DC. We have a large number of hosts that aren't members of the domain so I'm not sure whether this is the right way to go.
I know that there is DHCP MAC binding. But I would like to avoid having to configure the one thing here and the one thing there... A central way to define VLANs and IP addresses based on MAC addresses would be my dream.
Is there such a thing? If so, which keywords do I need to delve deeper into the subject?
Thanks a lot in advance!
PS: The security aspect is secondary.
