Customizing 802.1X Settings

CAUTION: Do not customize these options unless you are an experienced network

administrator or are under the guidance of an IT/support professional.

If you choose WPA as the encryption method, you have the option to set up the Access

Point to act as an 802.1X proxy, utilizing external authentication sources such as a

RADIUS server.

In 802.1X authentication, the supplicant sends access request messages along with

credentials, such as user name / password or digital certificate, to an authenticator,

which forwards the credentials to the authentication server for verification. The

supplicant (client device) remains in an unauthorized state until verification has been

received. In unauthorized state, only 802.1X traffic is allowed; all other traffic, such as

DHCP and HTTP traffic, is dropped. For its wireless interfaces, the Access Point can

serve as the authenticator communicating between the supplicant and the authenti-

cation server.
