802.1X Authentication
IEEE802.1X authentication is an IEEE standard for Port-based Network Access Control (PNAC), part of the IEEE
802.1group of networking protocols.It offers an authentication mechanism for devices to connect/link to a LAN or
WLAN. The 802.1X authentication involves three parties: a supplicant, an authenticator and an authentication
server. The supplicant is the IP phone that wishes to attach to the LAN or WLAN. With 802.1X port-based
authentication, the IP phone provides credentials, such as username and password, for the authenticator, and then
the authenticator forwards the credentials to the authentication server for verification. If the authentication server
determines the credentials are valid, the IP phone is allowed to access resources located on the protected side of
the network.
IP phones support protocols EAP-MD5, EAP-TLS, PEAP-MSCHAPv2 and EAP-TTLS/EAP-MSCHAPv2 for 802.1X
authentication.
