LAN Access Mediation

LAN access mediation encompasses the application of strict access control policies, systematic verification of devices, and authentication mechanisms to govern connectivity to a Local Area Network.

How it works

LAN Access Mediation is a network security approach that manages and controls access to a Local Area Network by using key components such as Access Control Lists (ACLs) to specify which devices are allowed or denied access, Port Security to restrict device connections to specific switch ports, RADIUS for determining the level of access or specific resources available to users or devices, and 802.1X for enforcing device authentication before granting network access. This comprehensive strategy ensures that only authorized devices and users can connect to the network, enhancing overall security.
