  • Page 57: Security Tab - Authentication Servers

    When a client (i.e., Supplicant) connects to a switch port, the Switch (i.e., Authenticator) responds with an EAPOL identity request. The client provides its identity (such as a user name) in an EAPOL response to the Switch, which it forwards to the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server verifies the client identity and sends an access challenge back to the client.
  • Page 58: Security Tab - 802.1X Settings

    • Each client that needs to be authenticated must have dot1X client software installed and properly configured. • The RADIUS server and 802.1X client support EAP. (The Switch only supports EAPOL in order to pass the EAP packets from the server to the client.) •...

  • Page 60: Security Tab - Ports Security

    Security Tab - Ports Security Port security is a feature that allows you to configure a switch port with one or more device MAC addresses that are authorized to access the network through that port. When port security is enabled on a port, the Switch stops learning new MAC addresses on the specified port when it has reached a configured maximum number.
  • Page 61: Security Tab - Https Settings

    If anyone tries to access a management interface on the Switch from an invalid address, the Switch will reject the connection, enter an event message in the system log, and send a trap message to the trap manager.

    (Version 1), DSA (Version 2), Both: Default: RSA) The SSH server uses RSA or DSA for key exchange when the client first establishes a connection with the Switch, and then negotiates with the client to select either DES (56- bit) or 3DES (168-bit) for data encryption.
  • Page 64: Qos Tab

    Class of Service (CoS) allows you to specify which data packets have greater precedence when traffic is buffered in the Switch due to congestion. The Switch supports CoS with four priority queues for each port. Data packets in a port’s high-priority queue will be transmitted before those in the lower-priority queues. You can set the default priority for each interface, and configure the mapping of frame priority tags to the Switch’s priority queues.The...

    ToS octet may contain six bits for Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) service. When these services are enabled, the priorities are mapped to a Class of Service value by the Switch and the traffic then sent to the corresponding output queue. Because different priority information may be contained in the traffic, the Switch maps priority values to the output queues in the following manner: The precedence for priority mapping is DSCP Priority and then Default Port Priority.

    A fiber connection always require two fiber cables: one transmits data, and the other receives it. Each fiber optic cable is tipped with a connector that fits into a fiber port on a network adapter, hub, or switch.
