802.1x Machine Authentication Only

Hi Guys,

Just want to double check, do I still need to reboot my machine every time I transfer connection from wired to wireless and vice versa?

Thanks

The supplicant should handle it for you without the need for a reboot. Of course, not all supplicants behave in the same way so you'll need to test it out.

Hi @Timothy Abbott,

I just have another question, since I will be using only machine authentication for both wired and wireless, can I still see the user information who logs into that authenticated machine if I dig down the RADIUS live logs?

Thanks

A Windows log out triggers a machine authentication.
