Android VIA Authentication Profile

    Today i got the VIA-Client on Windows 7 working but not now on Android:

    When connection from an Android device the controller uses the default VIA Connection and Authentication profile. Therefore the controller authenticates against the internal database instead of our RADIUS servers.

     

    Where can i configure the controller to use my own VIA Connection profile instead of the default one?

     

    Could you please help me?


    Kind regards

    Well ihad this issue but with the MACs...

    i opened a support ticket with TAC and they told me that its a bug, and that i had to use the default profile...

    I havent tried again to use other profiles on 6.2.x versions...

    I tink when i opened the support ticket i was on 6.1.3.5

    But the weird thing here is that on my androids that was working properly... you need a minimum of stuff on your android to make it work...

    Android running Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0.2) onwards

    And Kernel version: 3.0.8 onwards

     

    Cheers

    OK thanks for the information.

    I tried with a Samsung Galaxy SII with Android 4.0.4 and an ASUS TF700T with Android 4.1.2 with no success.

    Can u add authentication profiles into configration->authentication -> l3 authentication->VIA web authenticaton, as these authentication profile link to your VIA connection profile. so when u try to download profile you are presented with the list of auth profiles to select.
