When devices on enterprise LANs need to connect to other devices, they need a standard method for identifying each other to ensure they are communicating with the device they want to, and that's what 802.1x does. 802.1X can be a complex topic to digest and, like the rest of networking, it can be overwhelming where to start learning about it.
