    Hi,
    we have tried to authenticate a machine with Win XP SP3 using EAP-TLS but Clearpass doesn't receive any request. However, we have no problem using Windows 7.
    Any idea about what is happing? we have found in different forums similar issues but any of them showed a way to fix it.

    Cheers,
    Oscar

    Usually it is a driver issue for the adapter. I'm running an old laptop with XP sp3 with no issues but it is Broadcom on both wired and wireless.

    Hi Óscar

    Having read the post in the Microsoft forum I'd suggest you go for PEAP on the wired XP clients. Using clearpass you can easily build a policy that allows XP devices to connect using PEAP and forces W7 devices to do EAP-TLS. You just have to build an enforcement profile (or role derivation) that uses the profiling info in the endpoint repository.

    If you need further assistance please don't hesitate to ask.

    Regards
