accessonthatportwillbeprohibited.802.1xutilizesanexistingprotocol,theExtensibleAuthentication
Protocol (EAP), to facilitate communication.

Thecomponentsofaprotectednetworkwith802.1xauthentication:
1.
Supplicant: A client end user (camera), which requests authentication.
2.
Authenticator (an access point or a switch): A “go between” which restricts unauthorized end users
from communicating with the authentication server.
3.
