GS752TP, GS728TP, and GS728TPP Gigabit Smart Switches 
A port access entity (PAE) is able to adopt one of the following roles within an access control 
interaction:
Authenticator. A port that enforces authentication before allowing access to services 
available through that port.
Supplicant. A port that attempts to access services offered by the authenticator.
Authentication server. Performs the authentication function necessary to check the 
credentials of the supplicant on behalf of the authenticator.
All three roles are required in order to complete an authentication exchange.
The switch supports the authenticator role only, in which the PAE is responsible for 
communicating with the supplicant. The authenticator PAE is also responsible for submitting 
the information received from the supplicant to the authentication server so that the 
credentials can be checked, which determines the authorization state of the port. The 
authenticator PAE controls the authorized or unauthorized state of the controlled port 
depending on the outcome of the RADIUS-based authentication process.

Sample 802.1x Configuration
This example shows how to configure the switch so that 802.1x-based authentication is 
required on the ports in a corporate conference room (g1–g8). These ports are available to 
visitors and need to be authenticated before they are granted access to the network. The 
authentication is handled by an external RADIUS server. When the visitor is successfully 
authenticated, traffic is automatically assigned to the guest VLAN. This example assumes 
that a VLAN has been configured with a VLAN ID of 150 and VLAN name of Guest.
1. 
In the Port Authentication screen, select ports g1 through g8.
2. 
From the Port Control list, select Unauthorized.
The Port Control setting for all other ports where authentication is not needed must be 
Authorized. When the Port Control setting is Authorized, the port is unconditionally put in 
a force-authorized state and does not require any authentication. When the Port Control 
setting is Auto, the authenticator PAE sets the controlled port mode.
3. 
In the Guest VLAN field for ports g1–g8, enter 150 to assign these ports to the guest VLAN.
