Windows 10: NPS radius - Certificate

Hello,I am trying to configure NPS radius, where it is managed on a separate server from the AD. the NPS is registered with the AD.I am using PEAP, which needs a cert. should I manage a new certificate on the NPS server, or should I use the root CA which is on the AD server, and how to import it on the NPS server.thank you.

How to we generate certificates for 802.1x wired authentication in windows NPS?

How to generate the CA, server, and client certificates in the NPS server for 802.1x wired authentication. We need these certificates for our application which supports 802.1x wired authentication. We want our device to get authenticated from NPS Radius, but generating the certificates is not clear.

 

Radius server + WLC and Client Certificate Authentication

Hello people,

We have an issue with our radius server.

I will explain what is our goal and what configuration we have so far:

Our goal is to authenticate clients in the domain using WLC and Client Certificate Authentication.

Each client in our domain has a unique personal certificate.

The idea is when an employee opens his PC automatically connects to the specified by the GPO recommended network by using the certificate and not the username and password.



Currently, we configured the WLC Cisco controller to receive the client certificate, authenticate it and provide the IP address(of course if the policies are validated).

Afterward that the WLC controller has to send the request to the radius server. The radius should check if the certificate is valid (not expired) and not included in the revocation list.

Here our issue came. It seems that the radius cannot access the revocation list and cannot check if the certificate is revoked.

We validated that by disabling the revocation list check in the Radius server registry settings.

If we set it to ignore the revocation list check, the authentication succeeds, and the client is authenticated successfully.

The thing is that this way we lower the security of the connection significantly and we would like to make sure the certificate is validated against the revocation list.

At the same time, there are no issues in the connection between the RADIUS server and the server where the revocation list is stored/published.



Could you please let me know if there is any specific configuration that should be made in order for the radius to be able to check the status of the authenticated certificate in the revocation list?

Is there any configuration guide that we have to follow in order to implement the necessary configuration in the most proper way?
