802.1X Authentication
IEEE 802.1X authentication is an IEEE standard for Port-based Network Access Control (PNAC),
part of the IEEE 802.1 group 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 Skype for
Business phone that wishes to attach to the LAN or WLAN. With 802.1X port-based
authentication, the Skype for Business phone provides credentials, such as user name 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 Skype for Business phone is allowed to access resources located on the protected side
of the network.
Skype for Business phones support protocols EAP-MD5, EAP-TLS, EAP-PEAP/MSCHAPv2,
EAP-TTLS/EAP-MSCHAPv2, EAP-PEAP/GTC, EAP-TTLS/EAP-GTC and EAP-FAST for 802.1X
authentication.
