Step 8 IAS Configuration
Step 9 HP Jetdirect 802.1X Configuration
Using Windows 2003, we can simply go to the Start Menu, Select Administrator Tools, then select
“Active Directory Users and Computers”. Highlight the Users folder and create a generic user. If we
are going to use PEAP, we simply want to specify a password that never expires for the user. This
password will be used in the Jetdirect configuration for 802.1X, so it is important to remember it and
use strong passwords. If we are going to use EAP-TLS, we need to associate this user with the Identity
Certificate configured on Jetdirect.
