The network access control entails a computer network approach that promotes the
security and management of a network through enforcing security policies, conformity, and
management of the access control of a network. According to Green (2012), the network access
control promotes the security of the resources of a network by restricting access to a network by
noncompliance devices. The network access control also plays a substantial role in preventing
threats to a network by restricting insecure nodes that affect networks.
The EAP is a data communication structure that provides a range of authentication
mechanisms. Besides, the EAP is a general protocol for authentication that sustains various
authentication types such as certificates, smart and token cards. The EAP is highly applicable in
wireless networks and point-to-point connections. The EAP operates through a user request to
