● FAST—If you select the FAST option, click Properties to open and configure the Authentication Properties
dialog box. Be sure to select either EAP_GTC or EAP_MSCHAPv2, and then use the correct username, password
and domain. Validate Server Certificate is optional.
From ThinOS 8.3, EAP-FAST authentication is supported. During the initial connection, when there is a request for
a Tunnel PAC from the authenticator, the PAC is used to complete the authentication. Therefore, the first time
connection always fails and the following connections succeed. Only automatic PAC provisioning is supported. The
user/machine PAC provisioning generated with Cisco EAP-FAST utility is not supported.
Configuring EAP-GTC and EAP-MSCHAPV2
● To configure EAP-GTC, enter the username only. The password or PIN is required when authenticating.
● To configure EAP-MSCHAPv2, enter the username, password and domain.
NOTE: The domain\username in the username box is supported, but you must leave the domain box blank.
The CA certificate must be installed on the thin client and the server certificate is forced to be validated. When
EAP-MSCCHAPV2 is selected as EAP type in the Authentication Properties dialog box for PEAP or FAST
authentication, an option to hide the domain is available for selection. Username and Password boxes are available for
use, but the Domain text box is disabled.
When EAP-MSCHAPV2 is selected as EAP type in the Authentication Properties dialog box for PEAP or FAST
authentication, a check box to enable Single Sign-On feature is available for selection.
3. Click OK to save the settings.
NOTE: From ThinOS version 8.5, client reboot is not required to change the network settings. All the changes take
effect immediately. For example, ThinOS connects to the new wireless SSID immediately without reboot.
