  • 1.  EAP-TLS vs. PEAP

    Hi,

      I was in a conversation with my boss and we started arguing about what we should do for our new campus, EAP-TLS or EAP-PEAP. to be honest, I don't know which one is better and why from Aruba point of view? Any help would be highly appreciated.

    PEAP uses legacy authentication protocols. EAP-TLS is always recommended.

    be sure to mark it as accepted if that was the correct answer for you.

    Also if I'm not mistaken it's worth adding that EAP-PEAP also consists of an inner authentication method. When people refer to just PEAP they usually mean EAP-PEAP as the outer protocol and EAP-MSCHAPv2 as the inner. You could also do EAP-PEAP and tunnel EAP-TLS inside.

    PEAP/EAP-TLS is only supported on Windows clients.

    So EAP-TLS will not work on Android and IOS at all?

    EAP-TLS is fully supported on both platforms.

    PEAP/EAP-TLS is only supported on Windows.

    Thanks for clarifying! Can an eap-tls connection be established if either of the certificates is untrusted/unaccepted?
