How to set up an 802.1x environment.
We should configure Authenticator, RADIUS and Supplicant three parts in 802.1x
environment. The Microsoft 802.1x client and ZyXEL Vantage 50 will be used as
supplication and RADIUS, respectively. Following sections will describe the detailed
procedure to set up the environment.
1. IES-5000 (Authenticator) settings:
1.1 RADIUS settings:
Enable the 802.1x Authentication and the RADIUS server IP address, UDP port and
shared Secret, which is the same as Radius server. Then click Apply to make the
settings take effect.
TGE1> sys sw dot1x enable
TGE1> sys sw dot1x set radius server 192.168.1.3
TGE1> sys sw dot1x set radius port 1812
TGE1> sys sw dot1x set radius sec 12345678
TGE1> config save
2. Vantage 50(RADIUS) settings:
We use Vantage 50 as the RADIUS server. It’s a one of ZyXEL’s product. Of course,
you can use other RADIUS server like Funk Steel-Belted RADIUS, Cisco Access
Control Server, MeetingHouse Aegis server and so on. You can configure it by WEB
GUI and its default IP is 192.168.1.3.
