For Thinkpad computers that support the use of a fingerprint reader to log
on to Windows, the wireless network authentication will be processed
automatically.
Automatically display user name and password prompt for EAP-FAST
To display the prompt asking you to enter the user name and password
displayed when the location profile is deployed (if they have not already
been entered), choose this setting. The authentication starts as soon as you
enter the user name and password. The authentication information is saved
by the computer, and the prompt does not appear again unless you log off
or restart your computer; then it is cleared, and will need to be input again
the next time you log on.
Manually display user name and password prompt for EAP-FAST
A prompt asking you to enter the user name and password is displayed
every time you deploy the location profile. After you enter the user name
and password, the authentication process starts.
Use saved user ID and password
The user ID and password for the EAP-FAST authentication are set in
advance.
If using the Windows logon user name and password for wireless network
authentication is enabled, the available user ID and password will be used
for EAP-FAST authentication at Windows logon, and the computer will log
on to the Windows domain server. To enable this setting, go to Option, and
select the check box for Use Windows logon user name and password
to authenticate the wireless network.
Protected Access Credential (PAC): Allow automatic PAC provisioning for this
profile
To process EAP-FAST authentication by automatically receiving a PAC file
from Cisco ACS server, select this check box. Automatic PAC provisioning
is useful if you want to use the EAP-FAST authentication to log on to the
Windows server domain.
If you are using a Cisco 802.11b wireless adapter or an IBM wireless
adapter, you can use the saved PAC file for EAP-FAST authentication by
selecting the PAC file from the list. These adapters support the importing of
a PAC file. To import the PAC file, click the Import button.
You can also configure the following settings by use of the Logon option button.
Append Windows logon domain to user name
Select this check box if the network contains multiple domains. Then both
the user name and the domain name are verified by the access point during
LEAP authentication.
Do not connect to network when user is not logged on
Select this check box to disconnect from network when the user logs off.
Otherwise, the computer will maintain the connection.
EAP-FAST authentication time out
If EAP-FAST authentication takes longer than usual, change this setting to
increase the time before the connection is timed out. The default setting is
60 seconds. For some wireless LAN adapters, this setting cannot be
changed.
Enable fast roaming (CCKM)
Select this check box to enable switching between different Cisco access
