    Connection to Windows 11 machines through NPS server configured as Radius server was successful, whereas in Windows 10 machines WIFI connection is not established, also customer was trying to connect the Cisco WLC which is communicating with the Radius server

    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?

    WIFI Connection issue with Cisco WLC through Radius server on Windows 10 systems

    WIFI connection failure LEAP

    The Nokia 820 has the same issues, MS does not give any debugging tools to investigate the problem.

    I changed the inner termination of the WiFi configuration to MS-CHAPv2, instead of GTC (Cisco leap), to create a workaround.
    A radius server is needed for this, but it was the only way to workaround this problem.

    • Does anybody know a good debugging tool on WP8 for WiFi connectivity?
    • Does anybody know a utility to change advanced WiFi settings?
