Section 3: Configuring the Access Point
LAPAC1750PRO Access Point Software User Manual
802.1X Supplicant
802.1X Supplicant settings allow the access point to gain access to a secured
wired network.
Use these settings to enable the access point as an 802.1X supplicant (client)
on the wired network. An MD5 user name and password can be configured to
allow the access point to authenticate via 802.1X.
On networks that use IEEE 802.1X, port-based network access control, a
supplicant cannot gain access to the network until the 802.1X authenticator
grants access. If your network uses 802.1X, you must configure 802.1X
authentication information that the AP can supply to the authenticator.
To configure the access point 802.1X supplicant user name and password by
using the Web interface, click the Configuration > Security > 802.1X Supplicant
tab and configure the fields shown in Table 44.

Click Enabled to enable the Administrative status of the
802.1X Supplicant.
Click Disabled to disable the Administrative status of the
802.1X Supplicant.
EAP
Method
Select the algorithm to be used for encrypting authentication
user names and passwords. The options are as follows:
• MD5—A hash function defined in RFC 3748 that provides
basic security.
• PEAP—Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol,
which provides a higher level of security than MD5 by
encapsulating it within a TLS tunnel.
• TLS—Transport Layer Security, as defined in RFC 5216, an
open standard that provides a high level of security.
Username Enter the MD5 user name for the AP to use when responding
to requests from an 802.1X authenticator. The user name can
be up to 64 characters. ASCII printable characters are allowed,
which includes upper and lower case alphabetic letters, the
numeric digits, and special symbols such as @ and #.
Password Enter the MD5 password for the AP to use when responding to
requests from an 802.1X authenticator. The password can be
up1 to 64 characters. ASCII printable characters are allowed,
which includes upper and lower case letters, numbers, and
special symbols such as @ and #.
Certificate File Status
Certificate
File Present
Indicates if the HTTP SSL Certificate file is present. Range is yes
or no. The default is no.
Certificate
Expiration
Date
Indicates when the HTTP SSL Certificate file will expire. The
range is a valid date. If no certificate file exists on the AP, the
field displays Not Present.
