802.1X Authentication
The access point supports IEEE 802.1X access control for wireless clients. This
control feature prevents unauthorized access to the network by requiring an
802.1X client application to submit user credentials for authentication. Client
authentication is then verified by a RADIUS server using EAP (Extensible
Authentication Protocol) before the access point grants client access to the
network. The 802.1X EAP packets are also used to pass dynamic unicast session
keys and static broadcast keys to wireless clients.
