Main Menu> Advanced> Advanced Security
This menu option allows you to configure the advanced security settings of the switch to limit the
access to the management interfaces.
Figure 4-16: Advanced Security
There are two advanced security options beyond the basic password protection: RADIUS client
authentication and IP Filtering. If you have a RADIUS server on your network, you can have
authentication of management access done through the RADIUS server. This does not affect
traffic passing through the switch, but only authenticates access to the switch management. The
same is true for IP Filtering. Here, you can allow only users with specific IP addresses to access
the management features, thus preventing unauthorized personnel from configuring to the switch.
Main Menu> Advanced> 802.1x Port-Based Authentication
This menu option allows you to configure the 802.1x security settings of the switch to require
RADIUS authorization to access ports on the switch.
