if the server doesnt even see the auth attempts when the client is physically connected to the switch then take a good long look at the switch. use all the commands etc that you can on that switch - the show commands, the debug commands etc to find out what its doing or failing to do. we've had quite a few issues over the years with manufacturers and how they read the specs - life wouldnt be the same without a few interesting firmware upgrades (and cryptic changelogs that come with them). we had a recent one where cisco voip firmware blocked EAP-TLS through the softswitch - kinda annoying. alan - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
