The BYOD feature must work with the IMC server. During portal authentication, the device encapsulates obtained DHCP Option 55 information into portal and RADIUS packets and then uploads them to the UAM component of the IMC server.

Based on DHCP Option 55 information, UAM identifies the endpoint type, OS, and vendor information. UAM pushes different authentication pages and deploys different authorization information to different endpoints.
