802.1X: Deployment Experiences and Obstacles to Widespread AdoptionTerry Simons, University of Utah/open1x.org; Jon Snyder, Portland State UniversityPresentation Date: October 18, 2004, 10:05 AM - 10:35 AM
Room: Grand Ballroom
Abstract: Ratified as an IEEE standard in 2001, 802.1X defines port-based network access control. While providing a host of benefits to network operators, adoption of 802.1X has been slow--much slower than the rapid deployment experienced by 802.11b.
This presentation highlights 802.1X deployment experiences at a number of institutions, focusing particularly on lessons learned that will (we hope) serve to aid others in deploying this technology.
Additionally, there are a number of obstacles that have yet to be satisfactorily resolved and impede many organizations from deploying 802.1X. These include vendor implementation issues, client compatibility problems, and the rate of change in encryption standards and associated client software support.
Terry Simons Biography: Terry Simons is a developer and member of Open1x, an Open Source 802.1X project focusing mainly on Xsupplicant, an 802.1X client for Linux. He is co-author of the University of Utah Wireless white paper and author of the Networld + Interop "Decentralized Scalability with 802.1X" white paper. Terry's university duties include general network maintenance, 802.1X client and authenticator testing and support, and Radius mesh administration.
Jon Snyder Biography: Jon Snyder is the Data Network and Systems Team Leader at Portland State University. In that capacity, he is responsible for PSU's campus network and the Portland Research and Education Network, a consortium that provides Internet2 access in the Portland metropolitan area. He received his B.S. at PSU in 2000.
