Dude.. You are an incredibly gifted teacher. You made 802.1x so simple

[zongzoogly]

Studying for my Security+ and this is clearer and more thorough than the entire section of the textbook dedicated to "explaining" 802.1x

[scott]

Straight to the point explanation. Now lets have a video of you configuring some of the scenarios you explained please

[mohammedabdul-kader]

I like how you make it simple to understand.

background music is very noisy and distracting

[cedkams]

Amazing timeless explanation, thanks a lot!

[WargamerNed]

Wow this made perfect sense. Thank you, thank you, thank

[jewelminor]

Thank You for that helpful explanation.

[EHASZz]

It would be a great video if the music was not that loud... But still, thanks for clear explanation!

[samjones]

My Corporate Company has just implemented the restriction of all devices unless the MAC Address is in a whitelist. So now when I setup a new laptop or desktop, I have to have the MAC Address added to this whitelist first. Honestly, it's a pain. I feel like now imaging a new device or reimaging an existing device or trying to update a bios, we have gone backwards as far as now having to add the mac address to a whitelist work...more time consuming. I wish my company would have had it setup so that if a non company laptap was connected to the network, it would take them to a guest internet access. But my question is, would this method eliminate the need to still have to have the mac address added to the whitelist?

your personal laptop wouldnt have a supplicant right? is that still a thing? in the conference room

[josephbegala]

Thanks, excellent description of 802.1x

[allsoulsknight]

Let's say the NPS dies while a computer is connected. Where would I go to determine/configure the re-auth period (how can i see how often the supplicant retries to authenticate)? Is that on the switchport or the NPS server, or is it a windows specific value?

[pauljamieson]

Hey, can you search for a user (associated with a specific port) using this protocol? (ex. Jhomes is on switch ## port ##)

Don't make learning videos with music or instrument in the background mixed with the voice... it disturbs...

[srywahyuni]

explanation of what steps are needed when manually implementing IEEE 802.1X on a network?

[Doogy]

Thank you for putting it in dummy terms!!!!
