Author 802.1x Computer validation

Hi All,

We're using XP SP1 clients on HP procurve switches to authenticate on IAS (through EAP) for network access.

Were using Computer Authentication to make sure unauthorised clients cannot access the network, and to make sure the (domain)clients are accessible for support before the user authenticates.

Is there a way to assure that after a cable reconnect, or a revalidation of the credentials, again the computer credentials are used? So far we can't get this to work without using user-authentication in addition to computer authentication.

Thanx,
Sander.

Hey Sander,

Propagate those 2 dword keys to those computers
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\EAPOL\Parameters
\General\Global\SupplicantMode=dword:3
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\EAPOL\Parameters
\General\Global\AuthMode=dword:2

Cheers,

I can confirm that Thomas suggestion works.
