Click 802.1x Authentication | Lexmark X2500 instruction

Support for 802.1x requires the establishment of credentials for the printer, such as certificates. Certificates provide a way for the printer to be known to the Authentication Server (AS). The AS allows network access to print servers presenting a valid set of credentials. You can manage the credentials by using the Embedded Web Server.

To install and use certificates as part of the credentials:

1Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the format: http://ip_address/.

2Click Configuration.

3Under Other Settings, click Network/Ports.

4Click Certificate Management.

To enable and configure 802.1x after installing the required certificates:

1Open a Web browser. In the address bar, type the IP address of the printer or print server to be protected using the format: http://ip_address/.

2Click Configuration.

3Under Other Settings, click Network/Ports.
