Setting up eth0 with 802.1X security and a certificate

Hello,
I`d like to ask for some help...
I`m living in a building owned by my university and they have rules about the internet connection. Everything was fine using ubuntu, I just entered a window and filled the form in the 802.1X security tab, username, password, certificate. clicked connect -> DONE
Now in a hope to learn more about linux I`m trying to get arch linux working, but the first problem I`ve encountered is that I can`t get the connection running...
So please, could you instruct me what to do?
I need to set up a connection, let`s call it eth0 for simplicity, and I need to have IPv4 enabled, IPv6 disabled, 802.1X security with a username, password some kind of a Add_Trust.... certificate, let`s call it just cert.pem for simplicity. And I have only the command line interface like... you know, 5  seconds after installing the base and rebooting...

Thank you very much
