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.
