802.1x Port Authentication

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 a user name and password for authentication. Client
authentication is then verified via by a RADIUS server using
EAPOL (Extensible Authentication Protocol Over LAN) before the
access point grants client access to the network.
