System Options

IEEE 802.1X

IEEE 802.1X is a standard for port-based Network Admission Control providing secure authentication of wired and wireless network devices. IEEE 802.1X is based on EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol).

To access a network protected by IEEE 802.1X, devices must authenticate themselves. The authentication is performed by a third-party entity called an authentication server, typically a RADIUS server, examples of which are FreeRADIUS and Microsoft Internet Authentication Service.

In Axis' implementation, the network device and the authentication server authenticate themselves with the help of digital certificates using EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol - Transport Layer Security). The certificates are provided by an Certification Authority (CA). You need:

a CA certificate to validate the identity of the authentication server

a CA-signed client certificate and a private key to authenticate the network device. To allow the network device to access a network protected by IEEE 802.1X:

1.Obtain a CA certificate, a client certificate and a client private key (contact your network administrator).

2.Go to Setup > System Options > Security > IEEE 802.1X and upload the CA certificate, the client certificate and the client private key.

3.Under Settings, select the EAPOL version, provide your EAP identity and private key password.

4.Check the box to enable IEEE 802.1X and click Save.

Certificates

 

CA Certificate

The CA certificate is used to validate the identity of the authentication server. Enter the path to

 

the certificate directly, or locate the file using the Browse button. Then click Upload. To remove

 

a certificate, click Remove.

Client certificate

The client certificate and private key are used to authenticate the network device. They can be

Client private key

uploaded as separate files or in one combined file (e.g. a PFX file or a PEM file). Use the Client

 

private key field if uploading one combined file. For each file, enter the path to the file, or locate the

 

file using the Browse button. Then click Upload. To remove a file, click Remove.

Settings

 

EAPOL version

Select the EAPOL version (1 or 2) as used in your network switch.

EAP identity

Enter the user identity (maximum 16 characters) associated with your certificate.

Private key password

Enter the password (maximum 16 characters) for the private key.

Enable IEEE 802.1X

Check the box to enable the IEEE 802.1X protocol.

Audio Support

Select Enable audio support to allow clients to retrieve audio streams from the Axis product. For information on how to configure audio settings, see Audio Settings, on page 21.

Note

Deselecting this option will disable audio globally in the Axis product, for configured events and profiles with audio as well.

Date & Time

The Axis product’s date and time settings are configured under System Options > Date & Time.
