Vlan comparison time! I'm currently running about 600 vlans, and PF doesn't bat an eye.
Yes, I have a problem: http://i.imgur.com/jlgNZOs.jpg All kidding aside, how many vlans PF can assign is completely up to you and how you design your network and how you implement PF. Basically, the only thing you need to do is find some kind of variable that you can use to define what vlan you want your users on. Most people use the switch the users are on, but you can also use AD group membership, SSID, and almost anything else you can come up with. You can also use more complicated setups like: If the user is on switch 10.0.0.1 and it is after noon and they are a member of the ad group "Sales" put the user on vlan 2. Good luck!

We've got about 100ish vlans and mapping the category by switch works great.

Is it possible for Packetfence to assign devices to more then one VLAN? For example, if someone plugs into a classroom switch, for it to assign them to VLAN 6 or if they plug into a department, to assign them to VLAN 8? Yes. VLAN assignments are per switch. You can define a role that will be assigned to a user. That role does not have to map to the same VLAN on every switch. -- Louis Munro [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> :: www.inverse.ca<http://www.inverse.ca> +1.514.447.4918 x125<tel:%2B1.514.447.4918%20x125> :: +1 (866) 353-6153 x125<tel:%2B1%20%28866%29%C2%A0353-6153%20x125> Inverse inc. :: Leaders behind SOGo (www.sogo.nu<http://www.sogo.nu>) and PacketFence (www.packetfence.org<http://www.packetfence.org>) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Meet PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance Requirements with EventLog Analyzer Achieve PCI DSS 3.0 Compliant Status with Out-of-the-box PCI DSS Reports Are you Audit-Ready for PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance?
