802.1X Security 802.1X is an Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standard that defines a method for port-based network access control or authentication. In an 802.1X secured network, the printer must be authenticated by a central authority, typically a RADIUS server, before it can access the physical network. You can enable and configure the printer to be used in an 802.1X secured network. Before you begin: • Ensure your 802.1X authentication server and authentication switch are available on the network. • Determine the supported authentication method. • Create a user name and password on your authentication server. Enabling and Configuring 802.1X You can enable 802.1X settings from the printer control panel or in CentreWare IS. Notes: • • Changing and applying 802.1X settings causes the printer to restart. The printer may be offline for several minutes. If your printer is locked, you must log in as a system administrator. For details, see Accessing CentreWare IS on page 17. At the Control Panel 1.
