● Saved credentials in profiles that are both Persistent and Pre-logon/Common are not
supported.
❍ Saved credential profiles become prompt for credentials profiles.
❍ Profiles that are Persistent-plus-Pre-logon/Common, use machine credentials,
with an exception of TTLS profiles.
❍ Profiles that are Persistent-plus-Pre-logon/Common with TTLS, are not
supported. Only Pre-logon/Common with TTLS profiles are supported.
● There is no pre-logon support for TLS profiles (including profiles with TLS as tunnel
method).
❍ No connection attempt during user log-in; TLS uses user certificates after user
logon.
❍ Machine certificates for user connection is not supported.
❍ Machine certificate setting will become user certificate setting on import.
For specific information about each profile type, see the following:
● SSO TTLS profiles
● SSO EAP-SIM profiles
● SSO EAP-AKA profiles
● SSO LEAP profiles
● SSO EAP-FAST profiles
● SSO PEAP-GTC profiles
● SSO PEAP-MS-CHAP-V2
● SSO PEAP-TLS profiles
● SSO TLS profiles
Persistent Profile
Persistent profiles are applied at boot time or whenever no one is logged on the computer.
After a user logs off, a Persistent profile maintains a wireless connection either until the
computer is turned off, or a different user logs on.
NOTE: Persistent profiles are not supported for Windows Vista* or Windows* 7. See Single
Sign-on Considerations for Windows Vista* and Windows* 7.
Persistent profile key points:
● The following types of profiles can be created as Persistent Profiles:
❍ All profiles that do not require 802.1X authentication (for example, Open
authentication with WEP encryption, Open authentication with no encryption).
❍ All profiles with 802.1X authentication that have the credentials saved: LEAP or
EAP-FAST.
