Opening the Client
To access the client the first time, tap Start > Programs > Meetinghouse AEGIS Client.
After the Client has been activated, you can tap the icon in the lower left corner of the command bar.
Color Indicators
The color of the icon indicates the status of the controlled ports.
Main Screen
On the terminal, open the Client. The main screen opens displaying a list of ports on the system’s network interface cards, You
manage ports on this screen.
Port Status Icon
The main screen contains a port status icon to the left of each port listed. The color of this icon indicates the status of the port.
The color of the icon changes as the port starts authentication, negotiates with the AP and/or authentication server, and then
joins the network. As the network interface starts or stops, the color of the port icon and the status field in the Interface List
updates to reflect the current state of the interface. For details about what each color means, see
Icon
Color
This color icon indicates that …
Green
Authentication succeeded.
Yellow
Authentication is in process.
Red
Authentication failed.
If there is no yellow, red or green in the icon then either the ports are not being controlled by 802.1X, or there is no
authentication activity on the controlled ports. The absence of yellow, red or green may also indicate that the network
access server is not an 802.1X aware device.
Gray
The port is not in use or is disabled.
Either the Client isn’t running, or the port is not bound to the 802.1X protocol.
Orange
The port is associated, but there is no response to 802.11b packets.
If using WEP without 802.1x authentication, this will be the final state when the connection
is complete. If using 802.1x authentication, it is either a transient condition or can indicate
that attempts to authenticate have timed out as there was no response to 802.1X packets.
Blue
There is no 802.11b activity. The port may not be connected to an 802.1X-aware entity.
