Configuring an Authentication Password for VLAN or Stacked VLAN Ranges
You can specify an authentication password for dynamically created VLAN or stacked VLAN interfaces at the [edit interfaces interface-name auto-configure vlan-ranges authentication] or [edit interfaces interface-name auto-configure stacked-vlan-ranges authentication] hierarchy level. This password is sent to the external AAA authentication server for subscriber authentication.
 | Note: You must configure the username-include statement to enable the use of authentication. The password (Interfaces) statement is not required and does not cause the interface to use authentication if the username-include statement is not included. |
To configure an authentication password:
- Access the interface over which you want to create dynamic
VLANs.user@host# edit interfaces ge-0/0/0
- Edit the VLAN auto-configure stanza.[edit interfaces ge-0/0/0]user@host# edit auto-configure
- Edit the vlan-ranges or stacked-vlan-ranges stanza.[edit interfaces ge-0/0/0 auto-configure]user@host# edit vlan-ranges
or
[edit interfaces ge-0/0/0 auto-configure]user@host# edit stacked-vlan-ranges - Edit the VLAN authentication stanza.[edit interfaces ge-0/0/0 auto-configure vlan-ranges]user@host# edit authentication
- Specify a password that is sent to the external AAA authentication
server for subscriber authentication.[edit interfaces ge-0/0/0 auto-configure vlan-ranges]user@host# set password (Interfaces) PSSWD1
