For example:Administrator IP addressAlways allow the IP address to access this device: You can check this item and add the Administrator IPaddress in this field to make sure the Administrator can always connect to the device.2.11.4 IEEE 802.1XEnable this function if your network environment uses IEEE 802.1x, which is a port-based network accesscontrol. The network devices, intermediary switch/access point/hub, and RADIUS server must support andenable 802.1x settings.The 802.1x standard is designed to enhance the security of local area networks, which provides authenticationto network devices (clients) attached to a network port (wired or wireless). If all certificates between client andserver are verified, a point-to-point connection will be enabled; if authentication fails, access on that port willbe prohibited. 802.1x utilizes an existing protocol, the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), to facilitatecommunication.The components of a protected network with 802.1x authentication:Authenticator(Network Switch)Authentication Server(RADIUS Server)Supplicant(KX-NTV150)1. Supplicant: A client end user (KX-NTV150/KX-NTV160), which requests authentication.2. Authenticator (an access point or a switch): A "go between" which restricts unauthorized end users fromcommunicating with the authentication server.3. Authentication server (usually a RADIUS server): Checks the client certificate and decides whether toaccept the end user’s access request.KX-NTV150/KX-NTV160 support two types of EAP methods to perform authentication: EAPPEAP andEAP-TLS.Please follow the steps below to enable 802.1x settings:100 User’s Manual2 Software
