Use certificate
This is the certificate to be used during authentication. A certificate is required for TLS, optional
for TTLS and PEAP, and unused by MD5 and LEAP. Therefore, this option becomes active only
when TLS, TTLS, or PEAP is selected as the Authentication type.
If Use certificate is enabled, the client certificate displayed in the field is the one that is passed
to the server for verification.
To select a client certificate, tap Change and select the
certificate from the list that appears.
To appear in this list, certificates must be installed in the
system, for a description of this process see
The Issued to field should match the Identity field and the
user ID on the authentication server (i.e., RADIUS server)
used by the authenticator.
Your certificate must be valid with respect to the authentication server. This generally means that
the authentication server must accept the issuer of your certificate as a Certificate Authority.
Note: When obtaining a client certificate, do not enable strong private key protection. If you
enable strong private key protection for a certificate, you will need to enter an access
password for the certificate each time this certificate is used.
Tunneled authentication area
Tunneled authentication parameters are used by only by TLS, TTLS and PEAP protocols, in Phase 2 of authentication, and
after the secure tunnel has been established. The fields in this section are active only if TLS, TTLS, or PEAP is selected as
the Authentication type.
Identity
The user identity used in Phase 2 authentication. The identity specified may contain up to 63
ASCII characters, is case-sensitive and takes the form of a Network Access Identifier, consisting
of <name of the user>@<user’s home realm>. The user’s home realm is optional and indicates
the domain to which the tunneled transaction is to be routed.
Note: Because Microsoft .NET Enterprise Server Version 5.2 does not use this parameter for
PEAP, This field will have no effect for PEAP at this time. Phase 1 identity is used instead.
Password
The password used for the tunneled authentication protocol specified. It may contain up to 63
ASCII characters and is case-sensitive. Asterisks appear instead of characters for enhanced
security.
Protocol
This parameter specifies the authentication protocol operating within the secure tunnel.
The following protocols are currently supported for TTLS: EAP-MD5, CHAP, PAP, MS-CHAP
and MS-CHAP-V2.
The following protocols are currently supported for PEAP: EAP-MS-CHAP-V2, TLS/Smartcard,
and Generic Token Card (EAP-GTC).
