*sigh*

But that is *NOT* what you asked.  

You asked this: " I want to know the communication between switch and server."

Normally this is an English language list, but in this case I think we may make 
an exception.

Post here in French and perhaps Inverse will have pity and answer you.  

But you can't post extremely vague questions and then say "I already know that 
part"

Subject: Re: [PacketFence-users] PF Server Dialog

Thanks for your answer, but I already understood the dialog between cisco and 
the PF server.
My really question was what the folder log I can see for look all the 
communication between PF and the switch.
I really want to know what directive PF tell to the switch and switch to.
I have a problem I configure my switch in two modes: Port security and for the 
radius mode.
But I don't know how to configure radius into the PF. Can you help me please?

Best regards

I'm still not sure what you're trying to identify, but basically the 
conversation between PF and the switches goes something like this :

If you're using RADIUS, then the following occurs :

A new client is plugged into the switch.  If the switch is configured for 
802.1x, then an 802.1x session is started with the client.  If the client is 
configured for 802.1x, then the user's credentials are obtained and sent to PF 
via RADIUS.

If MAB is also configured and the MAB timeout is reached, then the client MAC 
is sent to the PF server via RADIUS.

In either case, RADIUS verifies the credentials and returns an accept or reject 
to the switch.  In the case of an accept, the RADIUS server also sends the VLAN 
information necessary to put the client in the proper network.

If the switch is configured for port security, or just SNMP Mac Notification, 
the following happens :

A new client is plugged into the switch.  In the case of port security, if the 
new MAC is different than the MAC listed for that port, then a trap is sent to 
the PF server.

In the case of MAC notification, a trap is sent to the PF server.

In either case, PF uses the MAC from the trap to determine if the client is 
registered or not.  SNMP (or sometimes CLI) is used to send the switch the 
proper VLAN that client should be put in.  In most cases, the port is then 
bounced to force the client to re-try DHCP.

Is that what you're looking for?
