3. When all settings are complete, move the video server to the protected LAN by connecting it to an

802.1x enabled switch. The devices will then start the authentication automatically.

NOTE

► The authentication process for 802.1x:

1. The Certificate Authority (CA) provides the required signed certificates to the video server (the

supplicant) and the RADIUS Server (the authentication server).

2. A video server requests access to the protected LAN using 802.1X via a switch (the authenticator).

The client offers its identity and client certicate, which is then forwarded by the switch to the RADIUS

Server, which uses an algorithm to authenticate the video server and returns an acceptance or

rejection back to the switch.

3. The switch also forwards the RADIUS Server’s certicate to the video server.

4. Assuming all certicates are validated, the switch then changes the video server’s state to authorized

and is allowed access to the protected network via a pre-congured port.
