802.1x Port Authentication

The access point supports IEEE 802.1x access control for wireless clients. This control feature prevents unauthorized access to the network by requiring a 802.1x client application to submit user credentials for authentication. Client authentication is then verified via by a RADIUS server using EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) before the access point grants client access to the network.
