5.4.12 802.1x Configuration
System Configuration
802.1x makes use of the physical access characteristics of IEEE 802 LAN infrastructures in order
to provide a means of authenticating and authorizing devices attached to a LAN port that has
point-to-point connection characteristics, and of preventing access to that port in cases in which
the authentication and authorization process fails.
To enable 802.1x, go to Administrator > Switch Settings > Advanced. You can enable 802.1x
at the bottom of the page. After enabling 802.1x, proceed to the “802.1x Configuration” section
to fill in the authentication server information.

Server Port: The UDP port number used by the authentication server to authenticate.
Accounting Port: The UDP port number used by the authentication server to retrieve accounting
information.
Shared Key: A key shared between this switch and the authentication server.
