EAP-PEAP (MSCHAPv2) Authentication workflow

When a Linux thin client is initially connected to the network, the thin client obtains Guest VLAN resources by default, that is TC should be able to reach INI server to fetch the INI configurations required for 802-1x configuration.

Pre-requisites for EAP-PEAP (MSCHAPv2) 802-1x authentication:

  • Make sure that the INI file has the configurations for 802-1x, Active Directory server, and Domain and Import certs. If you are pushing a CA certificate by using the Dell Wyse Device Manager (WDM), the Imports Certs INI is not required, but you must be sure that the CA certificate name is correct in the 802-1x INI parameter. For more information, see Dell Wyse ThinLinux INI Guide .

  • If you are using CA certificate for 802-1x authentication, then use the ImportCerts INI parameter to import CA certificates into the device. Ignoring CA certificate is considered as the default option, if the CA certificate name is not included in the 802–1x INI configuration.

  • Domain List INI parameter is required to display the available domains on the GDM login screen.

EAP-PEAP (MSCHAPv2) 802-1x authentication can be configured in two different modes:

  • User Authentication
  • Machine Authentication
