Quick EAD Deployment Overview
As an integrated solution, an Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD) solution can improve the overall
defense power of a network. In real applications, however, deploying EAD clients proves to be time
consuming and inconvenient.
To address the issue, the Switch 4200G provides the forcible deployment of EAD clients with 802.1x
authentication, easing the work of EAD client deployment.
Operation of Quick EAD Deployment
Quick EAD deployment is achieved with the two functions: restricted access and HTTP redirection.
Restricted access
Before passing 802.1x authentication, a user is restricted (through ACLs) to a specific range of IP
addresses or a specific server. Services like EAD client upgrading/download and dynamic address
assignment are available on the specific server.
HTTP redirection
In the HTTP redirection approach, when the terminal users that have not passed 802.1x authentication
access the Internet through Internet Explorer, they are redirected to a predefined URL for EAD client
download.
The two functions ensure that all the users without an EAD client have downloaded and installed one
from the specified server themselves before they can access the Internet, thus decreasing the
complexity and effort that EAD client deployment may involve.
The quick EAD deployment feature takes effect only when the authorization mode of an 802.1x-enabled
port is set to
auto
