    Hello all,
    A customer has asked if it is possible with ClearPass to copy the inner EAP authentication ID (for TTLS and PEAP) to the outer ID for our staff and students. They have done this previously with FreeRADIUS, apparently this provide better visibility/usefulness locally.

    I've never heard such a thing with copying the username at the RADIUS server. If your goal is to show the actual (inner) username, instead of the anonymous username, return the authenticated username as the IETF:User-Name attribute.

    BTW, please be advised that PEAP and TTLS are likely to be vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks, unless you have full control over your clients to enforce that credentials are only sent by the client if the server certificate matches. PEAP uses MSCHAPv2 which has been severely broken and should not be used as per Microsoft recommendation.
