Entering the credentials directly into the profile permanently caches the credentials. In this case, the vehicle
computer does not require user login. If a profile does not contain credentials entered through the configuration
editor, you must log in to the vehicle computer before connecting.
Caching options only apply on credentials entered through the login dialog box.

If the vehicle computer does not have the credentials, you are prompted to enter a username and password. If the
vehicle computer has the credentials (previous entered via a login dialog box), it uses these credentials unless the
caching options require the vehicle computer to prompt for new credentials. If you entered the credentials via the
profile, the vehicle computer does not prompt for new credentials.
Table 4-10 Cache Options
At Connect Select this option to prompt for credentials whenever the mobile computer tries to connect to
a new profile. Deselect this to use the cached credentials to authenticate. If the credentials are
not cached, you are prompted to enter credentials. This option only applies when logged in.
On Resume Selecting this reauthenticates an authenticated user when a suspend/resume occurs. Once
reauthenticated, the user is prompted for credentials. If the user does not enter the same
credentials that were entered prior to the suspend/resume within three attempts, the user is
disconnected from the network. This option only applies when logged in.
At Time Select this option to perform a local verification on an authenticated user at a specified time.
The time can be an absolute time or a relative time from the authentication, and should be in
at least 5 minute intervals. Once the time has passed, the user is prompted for credentials. If
the user does not enter the correct credentials within three attempts, the user is disconnected
from the network. This option only applies when logged in.
Entering credentials applies these credentials to a particular profile. Logging out clears all cached credentials.
Editing a profile clears all cached credentials for that profile.
The following authentication types have credential caching:
• EAP TLS
• PEAP
• LEAP
• TTLS.
