Using the 802.1X Authentication Function — 802.1X Menu

Using the 802.1X 
Authentication Function 
— 802.1X Menu
When you click 
 in the Administrator menu, the 
802.1X menu appears.
Use this menu to configure the wired port-based 
authentication in compliance with the 802.1X standard.
The 802.1X menu consists of three tabs: Common
Client certificate and CA certificate.
Notes
• To use the 802.1X authentication function, you need 
knowledge of the 802.1X authentication (WPA and 
WPA2) and digital certificate. To establish an 802.1X 
network, you need to configure the authenticator, 
authentication server and other elements. For details 
on these settings, refer to the manual of the 
corresponding equipment.
• When using the 802.1X authentication function, 
always configure the settings after setting the date and 
time of the camera. If the date and time are incorrect, 
port authentication may not be performed correctly.
System configuration of 802.1X 
network 
The following figure shows a general system 
configuration of an 802.1X network.
Supplicant
A supplicant is a device that connects to the 
authentication server to join the network. This unit 
serves as a supplicant in the 802.1X network. The 
supplicant can enter the 802.1X network after 
appropriate authentication by the authentication server.
Authenticator
An authenticator forwards certificate request data or 
response data that the supplicant or authentication server 
issues to the other party. Normally a hub or router serves 
as an authenticator.
Authentication server
An authentication server has a database of connected 
users and verifies if the supplicant is a valid user or not. 
It can also be called RADIUS server.
CA (Certificate Authority)
A CA issues and manages certificates of the 
authentication server (CA certificates) and user 
certificates. The CA is essential for certificate-based 
user authentication. Normally a CA is located inside an 
authentication server.
Note
This camera supports EAP mode in which the supplicant 
and the server authenticate using the certificate. This 
mode requires a CA to issue the certificate.
