    Running a basic 802.1X machine-only authentication setup at a customer without any issues for several years now.

     

    That is untill the customer bought some new Win10 HP Probooks.

    Now machine auth for those new clients is failing. 

    Previous Win10 HP Probooks are still working as expected.

    Both types of HP Probooks have the same intel ac-8265 chipset. Both types were tested with the same wlan drivers  and even with the same Win10 updates installed.

    If I reconfigure the 'faulty' client to do user-only auth he is able to get access.

     

    Eventlog on the client gives a warning: "6105 - deauth after EAPOL key exchange sequence".

     

    Eventlog on the auth server logs nothing for this failed authentication

    The radius auth server used is MS NPS with both connection and network policies as basic as possible. 

     

    Controller is an old 3600 running 6.4.4.16.

    User-debug gives a   "Deauth from sta:  Reason Unspecified Failure".

     

     

    show auth-tracebuf:
