802.1X Authentication
This security mode is used when a RADIUS server is connected to the ceiling AP. 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. Select
