MAC-based Authentication
Overview of 802.1X (Port-Based) Authentication
In the 802.1X-world, the user is called the supplicant, the switch is the authenticator, and the RADIUS server is the
authentication server. The switch acts as the man-in-the-middle, forwarding requests and responses between the supplicant
and the authentication server. Frames sent between the supplicant and the switch are special 802.1X frames, known as EAPOL
(EAP Over LANs) frames. EAPOL frames encapsulate EAP PDUs (RFC3748). Frames sent between the switch and the
RADIUS server are RADIUS packets. RADIUS packets also encapsulate EAP PDUs together with other attributes like the
switch's IP address, name, and the supplicant's port number on the switch. EAP is very flexible, in that it allows for different
authentication methods, like MD5-Challenge, PEAP, and TLS. The important thing is that the authenticator (the switch) doesn't
