5.4 Configuring IEEE 802.1x Authentication
You can set the ZyAIR and your network to authenticate a wireless station before the wireless station can
communicate with the ZyAIR and the wired network to which the ZyAIR is connected. Your ZyAIR
supports the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.1x standard that works with IEEE
802.11 to enhance user authentication.
To change your ZyAIR’s authentication settings, click WIRELESS, then the 802.1x tab. The screen
appears as shown.
