User Authentication 3

•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 encryption method for passing authentication messages – MD5, TLS, TTLS, PEAP. Native support for these encryption methods is provided in Windows 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.
