Tiivistelmä
This project is mainly to build a port-based authentication and authorization in wired network system. Here I took HP switch as the authenticator; VAMK’s NPS as authentication server; and Window XP PC as a client.
The method is to install 802.1X supplicant software on client; use PUTTY to configure Authenticator; use IDM to do RADIUS server configuration. The essence is to make authenticator communicates with RADIUS server.
Now the whole authentication and authorization system is working fine, each user plugging to an authenticator is required to login, and then authentication server will give response, and the user will pass or fail. Authorized supplicant will get correct IP address according to its membership; unauthorized supplicant and guest will be forced to the GUEST VLAN.
This project is a good ‘shot’ in network authentication area. In the future, 802.1X will play a significant role in the rapid development high-tech era.
