Registering Certificates

  1. Register a client certificate.

    When EAP-TLS is selected for the authentication method, it is necessary to upload (register) key and client certificates issued by a certificate authority with Remote UI.

    • Remote UI

      Security > IEEE802.1X/EAP settings > Key and certificate settings > Upload key and certificate

  2. Register a CA certificate.

    It is necessary to enable [Verify authentication server certificates] and register a CA certificate. Upload (register) the certificate with Remote UI.

    • Remote UI

      Security > IEEE802.1X/EAP settings > CA certificate > Upload CA certificate

    Any authentication method also allows you to make settings not to verify a server certificate. In this instance, it is not necessary to upload a CA certificate.

    If the security policy imposes a restriction, you must verify the server certificate.

    • Remote UI

      Security > IEEE802.1X/EAP settings > Authentication > deselect Verify authentication server certificates

    1. Select Enable/disable IEEE802.1X/EAP to enable IEEE802.1X/EAP.

      Select OK and save the settings to enable IEEE802.1X/EAP.

      Note

      • You can enable or disable IEEE802.1X/EAP on the operation panel.

        Note that the advanced IEEE802.1X/EAP settings are not available on the operation panel.

    2. Connect to IEEE802.1X/EAP switch (Authenticator) or IEEE802.1X/EAP access point.

      When IEEE802.1X/EAP is enabled, it is possible to search for SSIDs of IEEE802.1X/EAP access points in the Wi-Fi detailed settings screen on the operation panel.

      Select the SSID of the IEEE802.1X/EAP access point to connect.

      For a Wired LAN, connect the LAN cable to the IEEE802.1X/EAP switch.

If You Cannot Connect

If you are unable to connect to the IEEE802.1X/EAP switch (Authenticator) or access point, please redo the settings from step 3 above.

Important

  • Wireless Direct is disabled when you connect to an IEEE802.1X/EAP access point. When using the Remote UI, enable Wireless Direct from the operation panel settings and connect again using Wireless Direct.

Note

  • If you cannot access to Remote UI after you restart LAN, reload your web browser.
