| Summary | 0001848: Change docs to recommend using "spanning-tree portfast" or similar technology | ||||
| Description | I set up my first Packetfence install on a lab switch following the Packetfence documentation: http://www.packetfence.org/downloads/PacketFence/doc/PacketFence_Network_Devices_Configuration_Guide-4.5.1.pdf [^] "On each interface: switchport mode access authentication order mab authentication port-control auto mab dot1x pae authenticator" I was using mac address bypass only, and my MacBook would give up on DHCP and self-assign 169.254.x.x address. In order to prevent this, we need to add one more command to each interface: "spanning-tree portfast" I recommend adding this to all your port configs, including the corresponding command for other switch vendors. | ||||
