3� When all settings are complete, move the Network Camera to the protected LAN by connecting

it to an 802�1x enabled switch� The devices will then start the authentication automatically�

► The authentication process for 802.1x:

1� The Certicate Authority (CA) provides the required signed certicates to the Network Camera

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

2� A Network Camera 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 Network Camera and

returns an acceptance or rejection back to the switch�

3. The switch also forwards the RADIUS Server’s certicate to the Network Camera.

4� Assuming all certicates are validated, the switch then changes the Network Camera’s state to

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