Authentication Services
Authenticate users on specific services, including 802.1x, LDAP server and Windows.
802.1x Authentication
This authentication method provides a port-based authentication protocol where a network port allows
or blocks use, depending on client authentication results.
Select from the PEAP, LEAP, or EAP-TLS EAP/802.1X port-based Authentication Protocols. Protected
EAP (PEAP) is a mutual authentication tool that uses digital certificates for network server
authentication and passwords for client authentication. Lightweight EAP (LEAP) is a proprietary Cisco
Systems protocol that uses passwords for mutual authentication (the client and the server authenticate
each other). Extensible authentication protocol transport layer security (EAP-TLS) is a mutual
authentication protocol based on X.509v3-compliant digital certificates for authentication of both the
client and the network authentication server.
Before assessing the PEAP or EAP-TLS authentication protocol, the certificate must be fully configured
on the device and the associated server. Provide the 802.1X user name, the encryption strength,
authentication server name, whether to require an exact server name match, and the protocol.
