4.11.10 802.1X Client Configuration

Windows XP is originally 802.1X support. As to other operating systems (windows 98SE, ME, 2000), an
802.1X client utility is needed. The following procedures show how to configure 802.1X Authentication
in Windows XP.
Please note that if you want to change the 802.1x authentication type of a wireless client, i.e. switch to
EAP-TLS from EAP-MD5, you must remove the current existing wireless network from your preferred
connection first, and add it in again.

Configure Sample: EAP-MD5 Authentication

1. Go to Start > Control Panel, double-click on “Network Connections”.

2. Right-click on the Local Network Connection.

3. Click “Properties” to open up the Properties setting window.
