Network requirements
In the network in Figure 37, perform local MAC authentication on port GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to control
Internet access. Make sure that:
• All users belong to domain aabbcc.net.
• Local users use their MAC address as the username and password for MAC authentication. The
MAC addresses are separated by hyphens and in lowercase characters.
• The access device detects whether a user has gone offline every 180 seconds. When a user fails
authentication, the device does not authenticate the user within 180 seconds.

# Add a local user account, set both the username and password to 00-e0-fc-12-34-56, the MAC
address of the user host, and enable LAN access service for the account.
