    • Choose Network Authentication Variant: Choose one of the following:

      • EAP-TLS: This authentication variant requires a client certificate and private key, which can be provided with one of the following certificate types:

        • PKCS#12: The client certificate and private key are both provided in a single PKCS#12 formatted file (usually with a .p12 file extension). Click the first Browse button to locate the certificate file.

        • X.509 PEM/DER: The client certificate is provided as a X.509 certificate (using PEM or DER encoding), and the key is encoded separately. Use the first Browse button to locate the X.509 certificate and the second Browse button to locate the PEM/DER key.

        If you are using PKCS#12 or X.509, you can protect the client certificate using an optional passphrase in the Enter passphrase field.

      • PEAP/MSCHAPv2: This authentication variant requires a Username (i.e. identity) and Passphrase. For this method to work, the server must be configured to accept a username/password scheme instead of a client certificate.

    • Select Browse to add a CA Certificate: This should be the root CA certificate for the CA which signed the authentication server certificate. If omitted, the server certificate will not be validated.
