Hi,
A prospective client is testing a 620 controller with a 135 AP at the moment. On one of the SSIDs it is setup to use an external RADIUS server (running NPS on Windows) with authentication being via an internal domain issued certificate. This works okay but the problem is that machine group policies are not being applied.
From correlating the client and RADIUS logs you can see that the client fails to find a DC to get the machine group policy from a few seconds prior to the successful authentication on the RADIUS server. As the machine GP is only applied at boot-up the client will never get it.
What is responsilbe for the delay? Can I get better visibility on this somewhere in the controller?
This work-around below works but the client is still concerned as the same setup with Meru does not have this issue. Also would rather not implement a client side fix and is worried that this could be an issue for other services at boot-up that need full network connectivity straight away.

Also, he has only been able to test that on Win7 as that is all that is available.
Can anyone assist?
Cheers,
