Yeah, the authenticator and server roles are super important in 802.1X!

Wait, does the server really only support RADIUS? That seems limiting.

Totally agree, the authenticator makes the access decisions.

I thought the server stored the user accounts, not the authenticator.

The authenticator is definitely a RADIUS client!

I believe the authenticator makes access decisions, but I'm a bit confused about how the server communicates those decisions to the supplicant.

I practiced a similar question about EAP and RADIUS, and I feel like the authenticator does more than just support EAP.

I think the authenticator is a RADIUS client, but I can't recall if the server is specifically a RADIUS server or something else.

I remember that the authenticator acts as a gatekeeper, but I'm not sure if it also stores user accounts or just makes access decisions.

Okay, I think I've got this. The authenticator is responsible for actually granting or denying access, while the authentication server handles the user account database and policies. I'll go with option A.

The authenticator and authentication server work together, but I'm not sure exactly how. I'll try to eliminate the options that don't sound right and see if I can narrow it down.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused about the roles of the authenticator and authentication server. I'll need to review my notes on 802.1X to make sure I understand the difference.

I'm pretty sure the authenticator acts as a RADIUS client and the authentication server is the RADIUS server, so I'll go with option C.

Ah, I think I've got this. Configuring the correlation notable event index sounds like the right answer here. That's probably the key part of tuning correlation searches for a new ES setup.

Hmm, the DRS rules option seems interesting, but I'm not sure if that's the best approach here. I'll need to think through the implications of that recommendation and how it would work with the other options.

This seems like a straightforward project management question. I'll carefully review the inputs listed and think through which one is not an actual input to the schedule development process.
