During a post-validation assessment, you have configured a client for 802.1X/EAP but it is not passing authentication. Which areas should you check in the WLAN configuration?
Response:
You are validating association capabilities from clients to an 802.1X/EAP secure SSID. The RADIUS server's IP address is 10.100.50.25 and the
default RADIUS authentication port is used. When testing them, none of the clients are able to associate to the SSID. Troubleshooting the WLAN
