A network administrator is implementing a WPA3-Enterprise wireless network across a corporate campus. When users attempt to connect their laptops to the corporate SSID, the wireless access points pass the user credentials to a centralized infrastructure service to validate them against the domain directory before granting network access. Which server role is responsible for handling these centralized authentication and authorization requests?
- AAA / RADIUS serverCevap
- BDHCP server
- CSyslog server
- DAPIPA auto-configuration service
Cevap
The AAA / RADIUS server is responsible for authenticating and authorizing network connection requests against a central user database.
In a 802.1X enterprise network setup, wireless access points act as authenticators that forward user credentials to a RADIUS/AAA server. The RADIUS server queries the central domain database (such as Active Directory) to authenticate the user and authorize access to the network.
