Bruce, I've successfully built a wireless profile for Apple TVs using 802.1X (WPA2/AES) and PEAP/MSChapv2 in my lab. It worked fine until I removed the power of the Apple TV. Once power is removed, the Apple TV loses its time and can no longer validate certificates. You must then connect the Apple TV to an open or PSK network to get the time corrected before another successful 802.1X connection.
Because of this, we will not connect the Apple TV to our dot1X wireless network. We connect them via guest/open WLAN and move them to another L3 network on the back end.

We are currently using our ClearPass server to authenticate this connection. I have utilized many different combinations of WPA/WPA2 authentication options along with different combinations of trusted certificates. These included the certificate from the authentication server(ClearPass) along with the associated root and intermediate certs. However the connection still fails with the following error message, Radius EAP: Client doesn't support configured EAP methods. I was looking to see if anyone has been successful using the Apple configurator to build such a profile which contains the SSID, username, password, security type and certificates then pushing it to the Apple TV so it can connect to the wireless network.
