Using Peap (Eap-Mschap V2); Restarting The Authentication Process - Cisco CB21AG Installation And Configuration Manual

Chapter 6 Using EAP Authentication

Using PEAP (EAP-MSCHAP V2)

After you (or auto profile selection) activate a profile that uses PEAP (EAP-MSCHAP V2)
authentication or you eject and reinsert the client adapter, reboot the computer, or log on while this
profile is active, the EAP authentication process begins automatically. The client adapter should EAP
authenticate using either your Windows credentials or the username and password entered in the Define
PEAP (EAP-MSCHAP V2) Configuration window.
If your client adapter authenticates, ASTU and the Link Status field on the ADU Current Status window
show Authenticated. If the authentication attempt fails, ASTU and ADU show Authentication Failed.

Restarting the Authentication Process

To force your client adapter to try to reauthenticate using the username and password of the current
profile, choose Reauthenticate from the ASTU pop-up menu or the ADU Action drop-down menu.
When you choose this option, the authentication process begins.
If your client adapter is unable to authenticate using the specified username and password, you may be
prompted to re-enter them. If you click Cancel, a message appears indicating that the current profile will
be disabled until you choose the Reauthenticate option, reboot your computer, or eject and reinsert the
client adapter.
