5.8.6 NAS (802.1x)
A NAS (Network Access Server) is an access gateway between an external communications
network and an internal network. For example, when the user dials into the ISP, he/she will be
given access to the Internet after being authorized by the access server. The authentication
between the client and the server include IEEE 802.1X- and MAC-based.
The IEEE 802.1X standard defines a port-based access control procedure that prevents
unauthorized access to a network by requiring users to first submit credentials for
authentication. One or more backend servers (RADIUS
)
determine whether the user is allowed
access to the network.
MAC-based authentication allows for authentication of more than one user on the same port,
and does not require the users to have special 802.1X software installed on their system. The
switch uses the users' MAC addresses to authenticate against the backend server. As
intruders can create counterfeit MAC addresses, MAC-based authentication is less secure
than 802.1X authentication.
Overview of 802.1X (Port-Based) Authentication
In an 802.1X network environment, the user is called the supplicant, the switch is the
authenticator, and the RADIUS server is the authentication server. The switch acts as the
