  • 1.  CPPM 802.1x works with mobile but not pc (TLS error)

    Posted Nov 10, 2020 04:15 AM
    Hello, im trying to set up 802.1x with CPPM, the user successfully connected using mobile devices but fails when trying to connect with a laptop.

    Here is the alert i found in access tracker:

    TLS Handshake failed in SSL_read with error:140760FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:unknown protocol eap-tls: Error in establishing TLS session​
    Any idea about this?
    Thank you.

    Hi Aria_A,

    • What EAP method do you use? (example EAP-TLS or EAP-PEAP).
    • Could you share your 802.1x profile settings of your client device?
    • Did you install computer or user certificates?
    • Did you install the root and intermediate certificates on the client?

    It seems like your windows 7 device missed the root ca and or intermediates in your client trust store. This is needes so your client can trust the server radius certificate your radius server is sending.

    I believe that TLS1.0 should be disabled as its considers as not secure.

    Also note that EAP-PEAP is not secure, credentials can be easy be stolen. Dont't use it in a production environment. A little bit protection can be set in the client profile where the client should not be allowed to accept new server certificates (lower checkbox)

    As an additional note

    1. I tried using different laptop (Windows 10), and it works. The previous laptop was Windows 7.
    2. I tried enabling TLS v1 and TLS v2 in Cluster wide parameters, and the alerts changes
    EAP-PEAP: fatal alert by client - unknown_ca TLS Handshake failed in SSL_read with error:14094418:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:tlsv1 alert unknown ca eap-tls: Error in establishing TLS session​
