Is there any way to use DF as a 802.1x client (supplicant)? Can one use it on a network where this is mandatory in order to gain access to the LAN?
Sure we have wpa_supplicant, which can be used to do wired Lan 802.1X too, please apply following patch, compile wpa_supplicant and reinstall it: http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~sephe/wpa_supplicant.diff Create a wpa.conf containing following lines: ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=wheel ap_scan=0 network={ key_mgmt=IEEE8021X eap=MD5 identity="your_username" password="your_password" eapol_flags=0 } # ifconfig xxx0 down # ifconfig xxx0 up # wpa_supplicant -B -c ./wpa.conf -i xxx0 -D wired Then configure your IP address either by dhclient or manually Hope it will work for you.
