    Posted Apr 10, 2019 02:17 PM

    Hello every one, 

     

    i am facing issue with Aruba WC 7030, where mobiles are able to connect but Windows 10 not(Cant connect to this network), it has 2 SSID's: 

    first SSID has password is fine but the issue is with the second SSID which requred auth over RADIUS. 

    my question is :

    how can i trace the issue, or if there is any way to let the controller not ask for certification during the Auth?

     

    thanks

    Did you check the radius server log to see why it was rejected?

    Does your Windows computer already have the server certificate or the CA that issued the certificate in the trust list?

     

    Also, Windows does not guess correctly when you just click on an SSID.  In most cases,  have to  setup the SSID manually.  Typical domain computers are setup via group policy to avoid this.

     

    Mobile clients will properly guess the EAP type and ask you for what is needed or just ask you to accept.  Windows doesn't....
