802.1X Authentication

IEEE 802.1X authentication is an IEEE standard for Port-based Network Access Control (PNAC),

part of the IEEE 802.1 group of networking protocols. It offers an authentication mechanism for

devices to connect/link to a LAN or WLAN. The 802.1X authentication involves three parties: a

supplicant, an authenticator and an authentication server. The supplicant is the phone that

wishes to attach to the LAN or WLAN. With 802.1X port-based authentication, the phone

provides credentials, such as user name and password, for the authenticator, and then the

authenticator forwards the credentials to the authentication server for verification. If the

authentication server determines the credentials are valid, the phone is allowed to access

resources located on the protected side of the network.

Phones support protocols EAP-MD5, EAP-TLS, EAP-PEAP/MSCHAPv2,

EAP-TTLS/EAP-MSCHAPv2, EAP-PEAP/GTC, EAP-TTLS/EAP-GTC and EAP-FAST for 802.1X

authentication.
