26 To use 802.1X, you must select a RADIUS server to act as authenticator to devices 

connected to the NJ240FX. To select a Primary or Secondary RADIUS server, click 

the box and the Configure button. This will open a separate window.

In this box you can Enable or Disable the server, enter the server’s IP address and 

the Shared Secret.

27 To set advanced 802.1X security settings, click the Advanced Settings button in 

the Security Configuration window. 

Primary and secondary accounting servers are similar to the settings for RADIUS 

servers. The supplicant settings let you configure the IntelliJack as a supplicant to 

an 802.1X-enabled upstream switch. To enable this option, select the box next to 

Supplicant. When you do, the other fields on the screen will become active. You 

can enter a Supplicant User Name and Password as well as an EAP Type setting. 

MD5 is the only EAP type that the IntelliJack currently supports.
