Certificate authentication also need to be domain joined?

Hi, 

 

Does a device joining the wireless corp network using certificate authentication also need to be domain joined or is it just a certificate based check?

 

Thanks

It depends entirely on the specific configuration.

 

You could just have the radius server validating whether the certificate is present, in which case it could be a domain enrolled laptop or an iphone, so long as it has a cert it is allowed on.

 

You could also have a rule that stated it must have a valid certificate and be domain enrolled.

Thanks a lot for your response. 

 

If the SSID is configured with - [WPA2][Auth(802.1X)] and using ISE. 

 

How can I check if a device joining the wireless corp network using certificate authentication also need to be domain joined or is it just a certificate based check?

You have to check the policy on the ISE. If you check there for valid domain membership, then yes, the device must be joined. If you only check the validity of the certificate, then no, the device doesn't need to be joined.
