Description

 

 

Trusted Root Certificate

Select one of more Trusted Root CA certificates from the list of

Authority (CA)

 

certificates that are installed on the system. Only trusted CA

 

 

certificates that are installed on the host system are displayed in the

 

 

drop-down list, so you must make sure that the desired trusted root

 

 

CA certificate is installed.

 

 

To view details about the selected Trusted Root CA certificate,

 

 

double-click the certificate name. Double-clicking the certificate

 

 

name opens the Windows certificate property screen, where

 

 

certificate details are available.

 

 

Default: None

that was selected. If this box is checked and the server certificate is

 

 

not trusted, the authentication fails.

 

 

Default: Off

 

 

Enable fast reconnect

Check this box to allow session resumption.

 

 

The PEAP-GTC module supports fast reconnect (also called session

 

 

resumption). When you enable fast reconnect, you can roam without

 

 

re-entering your credentials. Fast reconnect can be used across

 

 

different network access servers.

 

 

Default: On

 

 

Note If you switch profiles, log off, or reboot, fast reconnect is not

 

 

attempted. You must be reauthenticated.

 

 

 

Configuring PEAP-GTC Settings in the User Credentials Tab

The PEAP-GTC module supports OTP and a username and password as user credentials for authentication.

The user provides one of the following types of username and password:

One-time password (OTP)—The user must manually enter a OTP. New PIN mode and next token mode for OTP are supported.

Windows username and password—The Windows username and password are used as network access credentials. The user is always prompted to enter a password unless PEAP-GTC is configured to use single sign-on (SSO) or the password is cached.

Prompted user credentials—The user is prompted during authentication for credentials. These credentials are credentials that are separate from the Windows username and password, such as Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) credentials.

Saved user credentials—These are user credentials that are entered as part of the PEAP-GTC configuration. The user is not prompted for credentials during authentication unless the saved credentials fail or have expired. New credentials that the user enters after successful authentication are saved automatically in the configuration. The user does not have to return to the configuration screen to change the old saved credentials.
