Chapter 12

Technical introduction

to Inline enforcement 83

∏ Everyone behind an inline interface is on the same Layer 2 LAN

∏ Every packet of authorized users goes through the PacketFence server increasing the servers' load

considerably: Plan ahead for capacity

∏ Every packet of authorized users goes through the PacketFence server: it is a single point of failure

for Internet access

∏ Does not handle routed networks

∏ Ipset can store up to 65536 entries, so it is not possible to have a inline network class upper than B

This is why it is considered a poor man’s way of doing access control. We have avoided it for a long

time because of the above mentioned limitations. That said, being able to perform both inline and VLAN

enforcement on the same server at the same time is a real advantage: it allows users to maintain maximum

security while they deploy new and more capable network hardware providing a clean migration path

to VLAN enforcement.
