Re: Does Network Manager Support Machine Authentication?

[Michael Butash <michael butash net>]

I'm in the same boat at the moment - deploying enterprise wireless and 
using machine auth for certain components in mac/windows, but looking 
last week for how to accomplish machine authentication lead me to find 
little under linux.

Seems this might need to be lower in the stack than networkmanager 
though, as windows machine auth starts at login, and mac's start with 
filevault at efi or login.

Has there been any prior discussion about how to accomplish this in 
linux, or if it's feasible?  It's been a standard deployment model to 
utilize the machine auth component for both wired and wireless .1x 
models, and without some form of posture agent analysis or 
integrated/managed secure cert storage under linux, becomes necessary..
