Overview
This chapter explains the sequence of events that occurs as soon as you or ACU's auto profile selection feature selects a profile that uses EAP authentication as well as after you eject and reinsert the client adapter, reboot the computer, log on while this profile is selected, or are informed that your username and password have expired. The chapter contains seven sections based on the profile's authentication type and its username and password settings:
•LEAP with the Windows username and password, page 3
•LEAP with an automatically prompted login, page 6
•LEAP with a manually prompted login, page 9
•LEAP with a saved username and password, page 13
•EAP-TLS, page 15
•PEAP, page 16
•EAP-SIM, page 19
Also provided are an overview of LEAP (below) and instructions for restarting the authentication process when necessary (page 21).
Follow the instructions for your profile's authentication type and credential settings to successfully authenticate.
Note If any error messages appear during authentication, refer to Chapter 10 for explanations and recommended actions.
Using LEAP
Step 1 When LEAP authentication begins, the LEAP Authentication Status screen appears (see Figure 6-1).
Note The LEAP Authentication Status screen might appear behind any open applications.
Figure 6-1 LEAP Authentication Status Screen
This screen provides information about the status of LEAP authentication. Table 6-1 lists and explains the stages of LEAP authentication. As each stage is completed, a status message (such as Successful) appears in the Status field. If any error messages appear, refer to the "LEAP Authentication Error Messages" section for an explanation and the recommended action to take.
Table 6-1 Stages of LEAP Authentication
|
|
Starting LEAP Authentication |
The client adapter associates to an access point, and the LEAP authentication process begins. |
Checking Link Status |
The client adapter is LEAP authenticated, and the network connection is verified. |
Renewing IP Address |
If DHCP is enabled, the IP address is released and renewed. |
Detecting IPX Frame Type |
On Windows 2000 and XP, the IPX frame type is reset if AutoDetect is enabled. |
Finding Domain Controller |
If you are logging into a domain and the active profile specifies that the domain name be included, an attempt is made to find the domain controller to make sure subsequent access to the domain is successful. |
Step 2 If you do not want the LEAP Authentication Status screen to appear each time the client adapter attempts to LEAP authenticate, check the Shown minimized next time check box in the bottom left corner of the screen. On future LEAP authentication attempts, the LEAP Authentication Status screen appears minimized in the Windows system tray.
Note To make the LEAP Authentication Status screen reappear once it has been minimized, click the LEAP Authentication Status tab in the Windows system tray and uncheck the Shown minimized next time check box. The LEAP Authentication Status screen should now appear for all future LEAP authentication attempts.
Using LEAP with the Windows Username and Password
After Profile Selection or Card Insertion
After you (or auto profile selection) select a profile that uses LEAP authentication and specifies that your Windows username and password also serve as your LEAP username and password or you eject and reinsert the client adapter while this profile is selected, the following events occur:
1. The LEAP Authentication Status screen appears.
2. If your client adapter authenticates, the screen shows that each stage was successful and then disappears. ACM now shows Authenticated, and the Server Based Authentication field on the ACU Status screen shows LEAP Authenticated.
If the authentication attempt fails, an error message appears after the LEAP timeout period has expired. Refer to the "LEAP Authentication Error Messages" section for the necessary action to take.
After a Reboot or Logon
After your computer reboots or you log on, follow the steps below to LEAP authenticate.
Step 1 When the Windows login screen appears (see Figure 6-2 and Figure 6-3), enter your Windows username and password and click OK. The domain name is optional.
