Feature Configuration
The Feature Configuration page is used to globally enable 802.1X and define how ports are
authenticated. For 802.1X to function, it must be activated globally and individually on each port.
To define port-based authentication:
1. Click Configuration > Security > Network Access Control > Feature Configuration.
2. Enter the parameters:
• Port-Based Authentication—Enable or disable port-based authentication. If this is
disabled 802.1X is disabled.
• Authentication Method—Select the user authentication methods. The options
are as follows:
o RADIUS, None—Perform port authentication first by using the RADIUS
server. If no response is received from RADIUS (for example, if the server is
down), then no authentication is performed, and the session is permitted.
o RADIUS—Authenticate the user on the RADIUS server. If no
authentication is performed, the session is not permitted.
o None—Do not authenticate the user. Permit the session.
