Security

Hi All,

I know that today we can use cloud authentication for APs, WPA2/3 Enterprise, and I have seen there was an online session talking about Cloud Identity and integration with Azure AD/Google Workspace for EAP-TLS authentication, but I can't find any recorded video.

My question is, does Aruba Central cloud authentication support 802.1x for switches managed by Aruba Central?

Yes, Cloud Auth supports 802.1x (EAP-TLS only) with both wired and wireless infra. Certificate provisioning has to be done through Aruba Onboard app. This video covers both wired and wireless configuration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvuarP200pI

Hi ! 

Thanks for the video link ! 

One question though, does that work only for user authentication or we can also use device groups in azure to push certificates and authenticates devices, not just the users? (In the video it seems to be only with users, but I don't want to have users bringing their personnal computers on the EPA-TLS 802.1X SSID...) Also this  means that if I disconnect from my windows for example, the computer won't be authenticated and thus not receivinf any e-mails or so...

Thanks !
