Configuring 802.1X Port Authentication
– 344 –
◆
The RADIUS server and 802.1X client support EAP. (The switch only supports
EAPOL in order to pass the EAP packets from the server to the client.)
◆
The RADIUS server and client also have to support the same EAP authentication
type – MD5, PEAP, TLS, or TTLS. (Native support for these encryption methods is
provided in Windows 8, 7, Vista and XP, and in Windows 2000 with Service Pack
4. To support these encryption methods in Windows 95 and 98, you can use the
AEGIS dot1x client or other comparable client software)
Configuring 802.1X
Global Settings
Use the Security > Port Authentication (Configure Global) page to configure IEEE
802.1X port authentication. The 802.1X protocol must be enabled globally for the
switch system before port settings are active.
Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
◆
System Authentication Control
– Sets the global setting for 802.1X.
(Default: Disabled)
◆
EAPOL Pass Through
– Passes EAPOL frames through to all ports in STP
forwarding state when dot1x is globally disabled. (Default: Disabled)
When this device is functioning as intermediate node in the network and does
not need to perform dot1x authentication,
EAPOL Pass Through
can be
enabled to allow the switch to forward EAPOL frames from other switches on to
the authentication servers, thereby allowing the authentication process to still
be carried out by switches located on the edge of the network.
When this device is functioning as an edge switch but does not require any
attached clients to be authenticated,
EAPOL Pass Through
can be disabled to
discard unnecessary EAPOL traffic.
◆
Identity Profile User Name
– The dot1x supplicant user name. (Range: 1-8
characters)
The global supplicant user name and password are used to identify this switch
as a supplicant when responding to an MD5 challenge from the authenticator.
These parameters must be set when this switch passes client authentication
requests to another authenticator on the network (see
Port Supplicant Settings for 802.1X” on page 350
◆
Set Password
– Allows the dot1x supplicant password to be entered.
◆
Identity Profile Password
– The dot1x supplicant password used to identify
this switch as a supplicant when responding to an MD5 challenge from the
authenticator. (Range: 1-8 characters)
◆
Confirm Profile Password
– This field is used to confirm the dot1x supplicant
password.
