37 Configuring 802.1X
Physical devices attached to a LAN port on the switch through a point-to-point LAN connection may be
authenticated through the switch through port-based network access control. This control is available
through the IEEE 802.1X standard implemented on the switch.
authenticated through the switch through port-based network access control. This control is available
through the IEEE 802.1X standard implemented on the switch.
The Access Guardian functionality uses this implementation of 802.1X to provide configurable device
classification policies for authenticating both 802.1x clients (supplicants) and non-802.1x clients (non-
supplicants). Such policies include the option of using Captive Portal Web-based authentication. In addi-
tion, device classification policies determine the VLAN assignment of a device and are particularly useful
for providing secure network access to guest clients.
