26To use 802.1X, you must select a RADIUS server to act as authenticator to devices connected to the NJ240FX. To select a Primary or Secondary RADIUS server, click the box and the Configure button. This will open a separate window.

In this box you can Enable or Disable the server, enter the server’s IP address and the Shared Secret.

27To set advanced 802.1X security settings, click the Advanced Settings button in the Security Configuration window.

Primary and secondary accounting servers are similar to the settings for RADIUS servers. The supplicant settings let you configure the IntelliJack as a supplicant to an 802.1X-enabled upstream switch. To enable this option, select the box next to Supplicant. When you do, the other fields on the screen will become active. You can enter a Supplicant User Name and Password as well as an EAP Type setting. MD5 is the only EAP type that the IntelliJack currently supports.
