    Posted 4 hours ago

    Hi All,

    I need to know whether the same client can be authenticated from both the methods EAP-PEAP and EAP-TLS simultaneously. As a brief, user need to log in to the same SSID using Username and Password as well as certificate authentication also need to be done via EAP-TLS.

    Thank you

    Hi

    Short answer is No. If you are talking about performing both methods at the same time during 802.1x.

    Can you describe more about the intention behind the request to do this and also what types of clients the users will utilize?

    Is the intention to implement a type of multifactor authentication?

    Hi @jonas.hammarback,

    Thank you for the reply. 

    Basically yes!, customer is asking something like MFA scenario authenticating the user via U/N & password meanwhile authenticate the machine via the device certificate.

    Can't we implement a solution like first authenticate via certificates then ask U/N & password ?

    If you have Windows clients you can implement EAP-TEAP. This will authenticate both the computer and the user at the same time and you can select EAP-TLS for the computer and EAP-PEAP for the user account.
