What about wired devices, how do we authenticate and authorize wired clients. We use the exact same policy engine we used for wireless clients.
How do we validate? We’ve connected a couple of clients to a switch, one is a laptop using a certificate and the other one is a Phillips U-hub that doesn’t do 802.1x and just doing MAC authentication…
Mist Access Assurance is able to natively integrate into Google Workspace IdP leveraging secure LDAPS connector for the following use-cases: User Credential Authentication (via EAP-TTLS/PAP) – validate user credentials (username/password) against Google IdP. User account and Group attribute lookup – obtain information about user account validity and user group memberships for both EAP-TLS and EAP-TTLS...
Overview Mist Access Assurance supports user and device authentication by leveraging a Mist Auth Proxy application running on a Mist Edge platform. Mist Edge is managed by the Mist Cloud and servers as a “gateway” for any non-Mist managed device that needs to perform authentication of end-clients connecting to it (a 3rd party switch, wireless...
Overview Additional configuration is necessary if opting to use EAP-TTLS/PAP (username+password) authentication for Apple devices, which can be achieved by creating a profile using a free Apple Configurator tool. Note: trying to input Username/Password at the login prompt by clicking on the SSID will not work (Apple devices use PEAP-MSCHAPv2 or EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2, which uses password...
Overview Mist Access Assurance allows you to integrate our authentication service natively into Microsoft Entra ID (formerly known as Azure Active Directory) using OAuth. How can you leverage Entra ID as Identity Provider in combination with Mist Access Assurance? User authentication via EAP-TTLS Authenticate User by doing delegated authentication checking username and password via OAuth...
Overview Mist Access Assurance allows you to integrate natively into Microsoft Intune Endpoint Management platform for the purposes of checking managed endpoint compliance state. Microsoft Intune managed devices (laptops, mobile devices) are evaluated by Intune for compliancy using Device Compliance Policies (presence of an antivirus, firewall status, latest security patches, and so on). Mist Access...
Overview Mist Access Assurance allows you to integrate natively into JAMF Pro Endpoint Management platform for the purposes of checking managed endpoint compliance state. JAMF managed devices (macbooks, iOS or iPadOs mobile devices) are evaluated by JAMF for compliancy using Smart Computer Groups for macbooks and Smart Device Groups for iPads and iOS devices (presence...
Overview When clients are using any form of EAP authentication, authentication is always mutual, i.e. both the client need to trust or authenticate the server they are talking to, as well as the server needs to authenticate the client. First step of that mutual authentication is for the client to validate or trust a Server...
