We currently have a separate PSK SSID for our wireless Cisco phones. We are 
migrating them to our WPA2  secure SSID. We had 2 options for this. We could 
either use MSCHAPv2 with a preconfigured service account per department, or use 
EAP-TLS using the MIC (Manufacturer's Installed Certificate) on the phone. We 
currently use the MIC with EAP-TLS on our wired Cisco phones with mac auth for 
the older models that do not support EAP-TLS.

For the wired phones, our RADIUS server just needed to trust the Cisco 
certificate chain. For the wireless phones, the phone needs to trust the RADUS 
certificate chain. This involves uploading certificates through the phone web 
UI, We are choosing to use MSCHAPv2 with service accounts.

Subject: Wifi Phone on Separate SSID`

I currently have a separate SSID for wireless cisco phones. I am thinking about 
using my wpa2 secure SSID for them. Anybody got any caveats or suggestions?
