Wired 802.1X support
The X-Series controllers support 802.1X, an IEEE Standard for Port-based Network Access Control. The X-Series
controller will act as a supplicant (client device) to an 802.1X enabled network and will present customer provided
X.509 certificates to be allowed access to protected networks.
To enable 802.1X, you must load an 802.1X certificate file to your controller using NetLinx Studio. Once you add the
certificate file to your workspace, NetLinx Studio transfers the file to the appropriate directory on the controller.
1. Click to select (highlight) a System (in the Workspace tab of the Workspace Bar).
2. Right-click on the Other folder to access the Other File Folder context menu, and select Add Existing Other File.
3. In the Add Existing Other File dialog, locate and select the certificate file (.crt) that you want to add to the selected
System. Change the Files of Type option to All Files (*.*) to look for other file types, if necessary.
4. Click Open to access the File Properties dialog, where you can view/edit general file information for the selected
file.
5. Click OK to add the file to the selected System. The file should now appear in the Other folder under the selected
System.
