Re: [PacketFence-users] Provisioner Setup necessary for hidden and non-hidden SSIDs??
I mean "I'll try the pki setup". And is this not also possible with local usernames and passwords? Because when I tried it, the Provisioner in the Connection Profile wasn't hit when client was authenticating. On 17 Jul 2017 5:06 PM, wrote: Thanks for your swift reply Antoine. If the ssid is hidden, how then do you connect at first time to the ssid. Don't think that is possible, except maybe if you download the PF agent first and use to configure the ssid. Or what's the order of setup? Don't really understand. I will try the point setup. My PF setup is currently working with local usernames and passwords to get to the reg. vlan and AD to get to production vlan.
