z 802.1x users use domain names to associate with the ISP domains configured on switches
z Configure the AAA scheme (a local authentication scheme or a RADIUS scheme) to be adopted in
the ISP domain.
z If you specify to use a local authentication scheme, you need to configure the user names and
passwords manually on the switch. Users can pass the authentication through 802.1x client if they
provide user names and passwords that match those configured on the switch.
z If you specify to adopt the RADIUS scheme, the supplicant systems are authenticated by a remote
RADIUS server. In this case, you need to configure user names and passwords on the RADIUS
server and perform RADIUS client-related configuration on the switches.
z You can also specify to adopt the RADIUS authentication scheme, with a local authentication
scheme as a backup. In this case, the local authentication scheme is adopted when the RADIUS
server fails.
Refer to the AAA Operation Manual for detailed information about AAA scheme configuration.
