Wired 802.1x Security
The X-Series controllers support wired 802.1x, an IEEE Standard for Port-based
Network Access Control. To enable wired 802.1x, you must load an 802.1x certificate
file to your controller using NetLinx Studio. Once you add the certificate file to your
workspace, NetLinx Studio transfers the file to the appropriate directory on the
controller.

Click to select (highlight) a System (in the Workspace tab of the Workspace Bar).
2.
Right-click on the
Other
folder to access the Other File Folder context menu, and
select
Add Existing Other File
.

In the Add Existing Other File dialog, locate and select the certificate file (.crt) that
you want to add to the selected System. Change the Files of Type option to All
Files (*.*) to look for other file types, if necessary.
4.
Click
Open
to access the File Properties dialog, where you can view/edit general
file information for the selected file.
5.
Click
OK
to add the file to the selected System. The file should now appear in the
Other folder under the selected System.
Setting the Clock Manager Mode
To set the clock manager mode:
1.
On the Manage System tab, select a Time Sync option.
• Network Time: When this option is selected, the controller will connect to the
default NIST Server to get date and time information. You can select a different
NIST Server (or specify the IP Address of a known NIST Server) on the NIST
Servers tab.
• Stand Alone: This option lets the controller use its own internal clock. When this
option is selected, the Date and Time fields are available on this tab.
2.
Click
Accept
to save these settings to the controller.
