HPE7-A06 · Question #125
A client is unable to connect to the network. In the HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass access tracker, we can see an EAP timeout. What is a possible cause of this message?
The correct answer is D. The client does not trust the radius server certificate. An EAP timeout commonly occurs when the client does not trust the RADIUS server certificate, causing the authentication process to stall until it times out. This is a typical issue in 802.1X/EAP deployments if the server certificate is not trusted by the client.
