Following are the benefits of 802.1X authentication:
- Supports dynamic authentication policy using 802.1X, RADIUS, and RADIUS proxy.
- Supports RADIUS Change of Authorization (CoA) and RADIUS Disconnect, which allows devices to change the VLAN/ACL for the endpoint based on roles.

- Supports native client, Ivanti Secure Access Client, and third party supplicants.
