Configure Legacy 802.1X

To use legacy 802.1X security, you need to define RADIUS server settings. For information

about RADIUS servers, see Configure RADIUS Server Settings on page 57.

When you select Legacy 802.1X from the Network Authentication drop-down list, the Data

Encryption drop-down list is automatically set to None. To use legacy 802.1X security, you

need to define the RADIUS servers only.
