Because AEGIS Client enables your terminal to access a network that is protected by the IEEE 802.1X protocol, you must 
configure EAP data communication to match your network server parameters. If the EAP configuration doesn’t match your 
network configuration, you can’t access the network. 

Installing and configuring the Client usually takes less than 15 minutes, provided you have the required equipment, software, and 
configuration information. You need clear information from the network administrator about how the network’s authentication 
works. 

The worksheets on the following pages provide space to record the required Client configuration information to set up the Client 
to match specific Extensible Authentication Protocols (EAP). The forms are designed so that hard copies can be filled out, copied, 
and distributed.

The client software supports the following EAP authentication methods:

•           MD5
•           LEAP
•           TLS/SmartCard
•           TTLS
•           PEAP

There is a worksheet for each method. Complete the worksheet for the method you choose.

To configure AEGIS Client to use MD5 authentication, you need to know:

1. Will you use your Windows user name and password for network authentication? (Applies only to Windows clients.)

2. If not, what is your unique user name/password combination?

If a second set of credentials is required, you need to know the exact user name and password. These are typically case-
sensitive.

To configure AEGIS Client to use LEAP authentication, you need to know:

1. Will you use your Windows user name and password for network authentication? (Applies only to Windows clients.)

2. If not, what is your unique user name/password combination?

If a second set of credentials is required, you need to know the exact user name and password. These are typically case-
sensitive.
