802.1X Settings
The 802.1X standard defines the mechanism for port-
based network access control. This provides a means of
authenticating and authorizing devices attached to a
LAN port. This screen allows for the configuration of
the 802.1X security.
The supported authentication types are:
• --None—
• EAP TLS
• EAP GTC
• EAP MD5
• EAP MSCHAPV2
• PEAP GTC
• PEAP MD5
• PEAP MSCHAPV2
• PEAP TLS
• TTLS PAP
• TTLS CHAP
• TTLS MSCHAP
• TTLS MSCHAP-V2
• TTLS EAP-MD5
• TTLS EAP GTC
• TTLS EAP MSCHAP-V2
• TTLS EAP-TLS
The TLS authentication types (also called SmartCard)
allow you to import a User Certificate provided by your IT
administrator and use alternate IDs (in Advanced
Options) in the encryption.
The other encryption types allow you to enter a User
Name and Password. These encryption types are not as
secure as the TLS encryption types.
