Preparing for 802.1X Wireless Authentication with Active Directory
This section describes how to configure 802.1X 802.1X is an IEEE standard for port-based network access control designed to enhance 802.11 WLAN security. 802.1X provides an authentication framework that allows a user to be authenticated by a central authority. wireless authentication with Active Directory Microsoft Active Directory. The directory server that stores information about a variety of things, such as organizations, sites, systems, users, shares, and other network objects or components. It also provides authentication and authorization mechanisms, and a framework within which related services can be deployed.® in a ClearPass managed network.

A LAN is a network of connected devices within a distinct geographic area such as an office or a commercial establishment and share a common communications line or wireless link to a server. or a wired LAN Local Area Network. A LAN is a network of connected devices within a distinct geographic area such as an office or a commercial establishment and share a common communications line or wireless link to a server..
RADIUS Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service. An Industry-standard network access protocol for remote authentication. It allows authentication, authorization, and accounting of remote users who want to access network resources. (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) is a protocol that provides centralized authentication, authorization, and accounting management.
For authentication, the wireless client can associate with a network access server (NAS Network Access Server. NAS provides network access to users, such as a wireless AP, network switch, or dial-in terminal server. ) or a RADIUS Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service. An Industry-standard network access protocol for remote authentication. It allows authentication, authorization, and accounting of remote users who want to access network resources. client. Policy Manager is a RADIUS Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service. An Industry-standard network access protocol for remote authentication. It allows authentication, authorization, and accounting of remote users who want to access network resources. server. The wireless client can pass data traffic only after successful 802.1X 802.1X is an IEEE standard for port-based network access control designed to enhance 802.11 WLAN security. 802.1X provides an authentication framework that allows a user to be authenticated by a central authority. authentication.
802.1X 802.1X is an IEEE standard for port-based network access control designed to enhance 802.11 WLAN security. 802.1X provides an authentication framework that allows a user to be authenticated by a central authority. offers the capability to permit or deny network connectivity based on the identity of the end user or device.
802.1X 802.1X is an IEEE standard for port-based network access control designed to enhance 802.11 WLAN security. 802.1X provides an authentication framework that allows a user to be authenticated by a central authority. enables port-based access control using authentication. An 802.1X 802.1X is an IEEE standard for port-based network access control designed to enhance 802.11 WLAN security. 802.1X provides an authentication framework that allows a user to be authenticated by a central authority.-enabled port can be dynamically enabled or disabled based on the identity of the user or device that connects to it.
Before authentication, the identity of the endpoint is unknown and all traffic is blocked. After authentication, the identity of the endpoint is known, and all traffic from that endpoint is allowed.
