GS108T port authentication with 802.1x problem
Recently I bought a couple of GS108T switches that I'm supposed to use together with 802.1x authentication. I set up a PKI structure that worked good and used NPS (network policy server) on Win 2k8...

What settings did you use on all three for making this work?
For now, I would settle for EAP-MD5.

You have to unlock EAP-MD5 in 2008 Server and then choose it in Network Policy Server as authentication option.

I think they have removed it in Server 2008 R2 though.
OK, I'm back.
Now I've got the EAP-MD5 auth to work Win2k8Srv - GS108T - XP client. The problem is that you can't save the password. This means that when you've restared the client you cannot log on as domain user, the port hasn't been authorized. This seems like a big limitation... gaaah. Does anyone have a solution?
I can't understand why cert isn't an option for the switch.
