3). 802.1x Configuration
If 802.1x function is enabled, the switch will act as an authenticator for users accessing
network through the switch. It needs a RADIUS server for the authentication function.
Users will be asked for username and password before network access. If the RADIUS
server authenticates it, the switch will enable the port for network access. This function
is very useful for network security application to prevent illegal users access network
through the switch.
