sorry, that's still wrong. they either support EAP or not. it is completely irrelevant which kind of EAP. be it TLS, MD5, TTLS, PEAP or whichever EAP scheme might EVER come out one day in the future, they support it already. nice, he?
My point is EAP pass-through not the type! (So we agree but you do not see...)
Such nitpicking. I did not mention md5 because it is IRRELEVANT to me! NOT ALL AP's PROVIDE EAP PASS-THROUGH FOR AUTH.
That was my point.
once again: we do not agree, i.e. what you say is wrong.
you say: your AP supports EAP/TLS but it doesn't support some other EAP type. so, the first half of your presumption obliges the support of 802.1X in the AP and the second relies uniquely on the usage of 802.1X in the AP. this is obviously a contradiction.
it's not the question of type at all, it's the question of EAP support in the AP (which you call "EAP pass through") which is ALWAYS general i.e. type-independent and which is called 802.1X.
conclusion: if your AP supports EAP/TLS, it also supports ALL other EAP types which exist and which will EVER come out in the future. that's what i say, not more and not less.
now, if your AP doesn't support 802.1X, it does not support ANY EAP type, not EAP/TLS and not any other. ok? it isn't nitpicking, since you don't understand that by concept&design all the EAP types are the same for the AP.
