Dolphin® 7900 Series User’s Guide Rev D 9 - 21
Use certificate This is the certificate to be used during authentication. A certificate is required for TLS, optional for
TTLS and PEAP, and unused by MD5 and LEAP. Therefore, this option becomes active only when TLS,
TTLS, or PEAP is selected as the Authentication type.
If Use certificate is enabled, the client certificate displayed in the field is the one that is passed to the
server for verification. To select a client certificate, tap Change and select the certificate from the list
that appears.
To appear in this list, certificates must be installed in the system. The Issued to column should match
the Identity field and the user ID on the authentication server used by the authenticator.
Your certificate must be valid with respect to the authentication server. This generally means that the
authentication server must accept the issuer of your certificate as a Certificate Authority.
When obtaining a client certificate, do not enable strong private key protection. If you enable strong pri-
vate key protection for a certificate, you will need to enter an access password for the certificate each
time this certificate is used.
Tunneled authentication area
Tunneled authentication parameters are used by only by TLS, TTLS and PEAP protocols, in Phase 2 of authentication, and
after the secure tunnel has been established. The fields in this section are active only if the TLS, TTLS, or PEAP is selected
as the Authentication type.
Identity The user identity used in Phase 2 authentication. The identity specified may contain up to 63 ASCII
characters, is case-sensitive and takes the form of a Network Access Identifier, consisting of <name of
the user>@<user’s home realm>. The user’s home realm is optional and indicates the domain to which
the tunneled transaction is to be routed.
Because Microsoft .NET Enterprise Server Version 5.2 does not use this parameter for PEAP, This field
will have no effect for PEAP at this time. Phase 1 identity is used instead.
Password The password used for the tunneled authentication protocol specified. It may contain up to 63 ASCII
characters and is case-sensitive. Asterisks appear instead of characters for enhanced security.
Protocol This parameter specifies the authentication protocol operating within the secure tunnel.
The following protocols are currently supported for TTLS:
EAP-MD5, CHAP, PAP, MS-CHAP and MS-CHAP-V2.
The following protocols are currently supported for PEAP:
EAP-MS-CHAP-V2, TLS/SmartCard, and Generic Token Card (EAP-GTC).
