802.1x Authentication

The machine supports 802.1x authentication based on the Extensible Application Protocol (EAP). 802.1x can be enabled for devices connected through both wired and wireless Ethernet networks. As described here, the 802.1x configuration is used to authenticate the machine, rather than individual users. After the machine has been authenticated, it will be accessible to users on the network.

The System Administrator can configure the machine to use one EAP type. EAP types currently supported on the machine are: EAP-MD5, EAP-MS-CHAPv2, and PEAP/MS- CHAPv2.

Before you configure 802.1x authentication, the following configuration is required.

Create a user name and password on your authentication server which will be used to authenticate the machine.

Ensure your 802.1x authentication server and authentication switch are available on the network.
