User Certificates
EAP-TLS authentication requires a user certificate. The user certificate must be stored in the
Windows certificate store.
To generate the user certificate, follow the instructions in “Generating a User Certificate for the
Mobile Device”, later in this chapter.
Import the user certificate into the Windows certificate store by following the instructions in
“Installing a User Certificate on the Mobile Device”, later in this chapter.
A Root CA certificate is also needed for EAP-TLS. Refer to the section below.
Root CA Certificates
Root CA certificates are required for PEAP/MSCHAP, PEAP/GTC, and EAP-TLS. Two options
are offered for storing these certificates. They may be imported into the Windows certificate store
or copied into the Certs Path directory.
How To: Use Windows Certificate Store
1. Follow the instructions later in this chapter for “Downloading a Root CA Certificate to a PC”.
2. To import the certificate into the Windows store, follow the instructions for “Installing a Root
CA Certificate on the Mobile Device” later in this chapter.
