If you have a RADIUS server on your network, you can have authentication of port access done through the RADIUS server. This does affect traffic passing through the switch, which can be helpful in securing your network from wireless eavesdropping when a wireless access point is connected to the switch. To enable 802.1x, provide the IP address of the RADIUS server, and the shared secret authentication key.

Advanced > Advanced Security > Trusted MAC Address Table This page shows all of the trusted MAC addresses you can set to allow the switch to forward traffic from. The maximum number of trusted MAC addresses is 128 per port and 1024 per system. Any traffic from MAC addresses that are not included in the trusted MAC address table will be dropped.

). If you have a RADIUS
server on your network, you can have authentication of port access done through the RADIUS
server. This does affect traffic passing through the switch, which can be helpful in securing your
network from wireless eavesdropping when a wireless access point is connected to the switch. To
enable 802.1x, provide the IP address of the RADIUS server, and the shared secret authentication
key. The re-authentication timer determines how frequently the session will refresh the data
encryption with a new key.
