What is IEEE 802.1x Authentication Overview about?

IEEE 802.1x is an authentication standard that uses a supplicant, authenticator, and radius server. The authenticator sends an authentication request to the supplicant and then to the radius server. If the radius server successfully authenticates the supplicant, it sends a message allowing network access. IEEE 802.1x provides strong authentication for network access using industry standard switches but can be difficult to deploy.
