Is it possible to use the Nucleo H755ZI-Q to authenticate on a 802.1x ethernet network ?

For a project, I'd like to use the Nucleo H755ZI-Q board to authenticate on an ethernet network protected by 802.1x authentication. The problem is I don't really know where to begin. Even after browsing the internet for answers I'm left without a clue and could use a little help.

The MCU just sends/receives Ethernet frames. So, yes - that is definitely possible. You have to implement that 802.1x protocol somehow. If necessary, it can also be implemented as a custom protocol for lwIP stack.
