Manage 802.1X authentication
If you enable 802.1X access authentication, port authentication is performed by a RADIUS
server. If you disable 802.1X access authentication, port authentication is globally
disabled and the switch allows traffic on any ports without authentication.
Note: Before you enable 802.1X access authentication globally, manually set the port
authentication mode of the uplink port or ports to Authorized (see Manage port
authentication for individual ports on page 63) to enable the switch to keep its network
connection and, if applicable, Internet connection.
To manage 802.1X access authentication:
1. Launch a web browser.
2.
In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
