Pre-logon/Common Profiles
Pre-logon/Common profiles are applied once a user logs on. If Single Sign On support is
installed, the connection is made prior to the Windows log-on sequence (Pre-logon/
Common). If Single Sign On support is not installed, the profile is applied once the user
session is active. Pre-logon/Common profiles always appear at the top of the Profiles list.
Users can still prioritize profiles that they have created but they cannot reprioritize Pre-logon/
Common profiles. Because these profiles appear at the top of the Profiles list, the WiFi
connection utility automatically attempts to connect to the Administrator profiles first before
any user-created profiles.
NOTE: Only administrators can create or export Pre-logon/Common profiles.
Pre-logon Connect key points are:
● Pre-logon Connect is active only at the Windows log on.
● The following types of profiles can be created as Pre-logon/Common profiles:
❍ 802.1X PEAP, TTLS or EAP-FAST profiles that use either the "Use Windows
Logon user name and password" or "Use the following user name and
password" credentials when configuring the profile's security settings.
❍ LEAP profiles that use the "Prompt for the user name and password."
credentials when configuring the profile's security settings.
❍ 802.1X PEAP or TTLS profiles with user or machine certificates (the user must
have administrative rights to use machine certificates).
❍ TLS profiles that use digital certificates to verify the identity of a client and a
server.
❍ EAP-SIM profiles that use a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card to validate
your credentials with the network.
❍ All non-802.1X (Open and WEP) Common or User Based profiles.
● A Pre-logon/Common profile is applied at Windows user log-on time.
