We're running PacketFence 4.0.3 and our switches are Nortel/Avaya 5500 and 5600
series.
A problem we've seen lately is that on switches where we allow more than one
MAC address per port, the following happens:
1. User unplugs a registered device
2. User plugs in an unregistered device that doesn't have a web browser
(ie. Xbox 360), port gets put in the registration VLAN
3. User does not register the device and unplugs it
4. User plugs registered device back in to the same port
5. Because the registered device is still authorized on the port, a Mac
Security trap is not sent, therefore the port stays in the registration VLAN
Is there a way to get the port placed back into the normal VLAN when the
registered device plugs back in to the port where it is still authorized? We
would prefer to use Mac Security traps if possible. We could use Link Up/Down
traps but would like to avoid it due to the volume of traps it would generate.
Thank you,
Chelsi Doyle
