Configure IEEE 802.1x Authentication for a Wired or a Wireless Network
Using Web Based Management (Web Browser)
• If you configure your machine using EAP-TLS authentication, you must install the client certificate issued by a
CA before you start configuration. Contact your network administrator about the client certificate. If you have
installed more than one certificate, we recommend writing down the certificate name you want to use.
• Before you verify the server certificate, you must import the CA certificate that has been issued by the CA
that signed the server certificate. Contact your network administrator or your Internet Service Provider (ISP)
to confirm whether a CA certificate import is necessary.
You can also configure IEEE 802.1x authentication using:
•
BRAdmin Professional 3
•
•
1. Start your web browser.
2. Type "http://machine's IP address" in your browser's address bar (where "machine's IP address" is the
machine's IP address).
For example:

• If you are using a Domain Name System or enable a NetBIOS name, you can type another name, such
as "SharedPrinter" instead of the IP address.
-
For example:
http://SharedPrinter

For example:
http://brnxxxxxxxxxxxx
The NetBIOS name can be found in the Network Configuration Report.
