You are suggested to take the following further steps to ensure the network security. 

1.  It’s recommended to inspect and repair the system vulnerability regularly. It is also necessary 

to install the system bulletins and backup the important information in time. 

2.  The network administrator is suggested to inspect the physic environment of the network and 

block the unnecessary network services. 

3.  Enhance the network security via the protection devices, such as the hardware firewall.   

The 802.1X protocol was developed by IEEE802 LAN/WAN committee to deal with the security 
issues of wireless LANs. It was then used in Ethernet as a common access control mechanism for 
LAN ports to solve mainly authentication and security problems. 

802.1X is a port-based network access control protocol. It authenticates and controls devices 
requesting for access in terms of the ports of LAN access control devices. With the 802.1X 
protocol enabled, a supplicant can access the LAN only when it passes the authentication, 
whereas those failing to pass the authentication are denied when accessing the LAN.
