Configuring IEEE 802.1X
IEEE 802.1X can be configured using Web Image Monitor's administrator mode. You can select four types
of EAP authentication method: EAP-TLS, LEAP, EAP-TTLS and PEAP. Note that each EAP authentication
method has different configuration settings and authentication procedures.
Types and requirements of certificates are as follows:
If a certificate is required, configure all settings after installing the certificate.
