    Hi, 

    Wifi in our environment is working for all, but one user with Google pixel couldn't connect even if the user membership and call are ok.

    Error Code: 215
    Error Category: Authentication failure (domain username and password are entered correctly)

    Error messagge:TLS session error

    Radius: EAP-PEAP: fatal alert by client- unknow ca
    ERROR in establishing TLS session...

    Any suggestion , advice ? 

    Many thanks,
    Binod

    Hi,

    from where do you get those logs?
    Radius: EAP-PEAP: fatal alert by client- unknow ca
    This indicates that some trusts are not established. I would assume, that your client (pixel phone) does not trust your radius server certificate.

    Thank you for your reply. 

    Is there any way to resolve it  such that Google Pixel device will trust our certificate and will allow the connection ?

    Many thinks.

    Kind regards,

    You will need to deploy the Root CA that issued your ClearPass EAP/RADIUS certificate to the Android device, and select that as Trusted certificate in the configuration.

    Best to use Device Management (MDM/EMM) for that. Also best to avoid PEAP/MSCHAPv2 as it introduces risks if you don't fully control and harden your clients.

    Thank you Herman.

    Is that the Root CA issued by Domain CA server or Radius server  certificate, that we need to install on the device ?

    Please let me know..I am bit new in this area.

    Many Thanks.

    Kind regards,

    If you check in ClearPass the certificate installed for EAP/RADIUS, follow the path to the Root CA that issued that certificate, that is the one you need to install on your client devices for the trust.

    In the case your RADIUS certificate was issued by AD Certificate Services, that is RootCA of your AD CS; and you had to install that in the ClearPass Trust list as well to get the EAP/RADIUS certificate installed, so you can export it from there, if needed.
