Wireless-N Broadband Router
6. 802.1X
This security mode is used
when a RADIUS server is
connected to the Router.
802.1x, a kind of Port-based
authentication protocol, is
an authentication type and
strategy for users. The port
can be either a physic port
or logic port (such as
VLAN). For wireless LAN
users, a port is just a
channel. The final purpose
of 802.11x authentication is
to check if the port can be
used. If the port is
authenticated successfully,
you can open this port which
allows all the messages to
pass. If the port isn’t
authenticated successfully,
you can keep this port
“disable” which just allows
802.1x authentication
protocol message to pass.
