Using IEEE 802.1x authentication

You can configure IEEE 802.1x authentication for a wired or a wireless network.
To use IEEE 802.1x authentication, you must install a certificate issued by a CA. Contact your network
administrator or your ISP (Internet Service Provider) whether a CA certificate import is necessary. (For how
to install a certificate, see Using Certificates for device security on page 69.)
IEEE 802.1x authentication configuration using Web Based Management (web
browser)
If you are configuring IEEE 802.1x authentication for a wired or a wireless network using Web Based
Management, follow the instructions.
You can also configure IEEE 802.1x authentication using:
(Wired network)

 Wireless setup wizard from the control panel (For details, see Configuring your machine for an enterprise
wireless network on page 20.)

Note
• If you configure your machine using EAP-TLS Authentication, you must install the Client Certificate before
you start configuration. If you have installed more than one certificate, we recommend you write down the
certificate you want to use. For installing the certificate, see Using Certificates for device security
on page 69.
• Before you verify the Server Certificate, you must import the CA certificate that has been issued by the CA
that signed the Server Certificate. Contact your system administrator about the CA certificate. For
importing the certificate, see Import and export a CA certificate on page 79.
• For the details of each certificate, see Using Certificates for device security on page 69.
