How-To: Connect Manually Connect to an Enterprise Network Using Entra ID and RADIUS Authentication

What Needs to Be Configured To Connect to an Enterprise Network?

To connect your device to an enterprise network using RADIUS authentication, you typically need to configure the following settings on your device:

1. Network SSID: The name of the Wi-Fi network you want to connect to.
2. Security Type: The type of security protocol used by the network (e.g., WPA2-Enterprise, WPA3-Enterprise).
3. EAP Method: The Extensible Authentication Protocol method used for authentication (e.g., EAP-TTLS/PAP, EAP-TLS, PEAP-MSCHAPv2).
4. RADIUS Server CA Certificate: The certificate authority (CA) certificate that your device will use to trust the RADIUS server during the authentication process.
5. User Credentials: Your Entra ID username and password, or a client certificate if using EAP-TLS.

While an MDM solution like Microsoft Intune can automate this configuration process, you can also manually set up these parameters on your device.
