Configure the Dot1x authentication list

You can configure the dot1x authentication list, which specifies the authentication
methods to validate port access for users associated with the dot1x list. Only a single
dot1x list exists. For that list, you can select a single access method only. By default,
access to ports does not require authentication, so no default access method exists.

To configure the dot1x authentication list:

1. Launch a web browser.

2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.

The login page displays.

3. Click the Main UI Login button.

The main UI login page displays in a new tab.

4. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password, and click the Login

button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.

The System Information page displays.

5. Select Security > Management Security > Authentication List > Dot1x

Authentication List.
The Dot1x Authentication List page displays.

6. Select the check box for the dot1x list.

7. Select the authentication method that must be used:

• Ias: The user’s ID and password in the internal authentication server (IAS) database

is used for authentication.

• Local: The user’s locally stored name and password are used for authentication.
• None: The user is allowed access without authentication.
• Radius: The user's name and password are authenticated using the RADIUS server

instead of the local server.

8. Click the Apply button.

Your settings are saved.
