7.6.1 Authentication Required: 802.1x
You need the following for IEEE 802.1x authentication.
• A computer with an IEEE 802.11 a/b/g wireless LAN adapter and equipped with a web
browser (with JavaScript enabled) and/or Telnet.
• A wireless station computer must be running IEEE 802.1x-compliant software. Not all
Windows operating systems support IEEE 802.1x (see the Microsoft web site for details).
For other operating systems, see their documentation. If your operating system does not
support IEEE 802.1x, then you may need to install IEEE 802.1x client software.
• An optional network RADIUS server for remote user authentication and accounting.
