The AXIS network video device presents its certificate to the network switch, which in turn 

forwards this to the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server validates or rejects the certificate 

and responds to the switch, and sends its own certificate to the client for validation. The 

switch then allows or denies network access accordingly, on a preconfigured port. 

RADIUS
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) is an AAA (Authentication, Authori-

zation and Accounting) protocol for applications such as network access or IP mobility. It 

is intended to work in both local and roaming situations.
