Machine Authentications not passing username

    Posted Aug 15, 2019 03:51 PM

    Hello all,

    I'm having an odd issue. I have three main roles (Student, Faculty and Machine) When I log into the MM and view the connected wireless clients the student and faculty users show the username of the user logged on the 802.1x network.

    However, we do have a lab with a few wireless Windows 10 clients. Users log on to those PCs using their AD creds and it gives them access to the wifi network as well without an additional prompt. How can I get their AD username to show up like the other roles instead of the hostname of the PC? 

    Do I need to specify something specific in my Wireless Network group policy perhaps? I'm kind of stuck.

     

    Thanks for any advice.

    Those devices might have been configured in the Wireless Policy to send only the machine authentication, so it would only show as host/<machine name>.  You would have to change the supplicant to send computer and username
