Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) device management settings for Apple devices

You can configure the various EAP protocols for Apple devices that enroll in a device management service. Device management services can support the following 802.1X authentication methods for WPA Enterprise and WPA2 Enterprise networks. You can select multiple EAP methods.

  • TLS

  • TTLS (MSCHAPv2)

  • EAP-FAST

  • EAP-SIM

  • PEAP (EAP-MSCHAPv2, the most common form of PEAP)

  • PEAP (EAP-GTC, less common and created by Cisco)

  • EAP-AKA (requires no additional configuration)

The tables that follow describe the settings for each EAP method.
