Manually configure MacOS for machine authc

KelvinT — Mon, 25 Jan 2021 16:00:34 GMT

ISE 2.7

MacOS

ProfileEditor

Do anyone know the settings for a MacOS to authc using machine certificate? We are use the profileEditor and try a few options without success.

Any help would be appreciated.

AFAIK there is no concept of "machine authentication" on MacOS.

please take a look at the following post: Machine + User AuthC on MacOS.

Hope this helps !!!

Machine Authentication is considered "System" authentication on macOS.

You will need to provision a cert for each of your machines and for this people typically use an MDM/EMM product.

ISE can then authenticate those provisioned certificates when the computer presents them.
