Hello,

We have the same problem .

Disabling the Cert check by selecting "undefined certificate" on the smartphone is the workaround.

The profile is attached.if it can help .

Hello,

both specimen have a CA chain with intermediate CAs, and we had one
person report earlier that certificate ordering seemed to be important
while it should not. I suspected that the app might load only the first
it sees.

I now see that the profiles contain all CAs in both recent cases.

For SPC, the first CA in the list is an intermediate. If the app loads
only that one, verification against the root will of course be impossible.

For CSIC, the first CA is the root - so verification should still work
*if* the RADIUS server sends the intermediate CA(s) during the EAP
handshake. If it does not, there is again no complete chain to the trust
root.

So:

1) Gareth, could you verify what happens if more than one CA is in a
eap-config profile? The app should iterate over all CAs and install all
of them, but maybe it does not?

2) Vicente, could you run the realm check and see if you get a warning
about intermediate CA not being sent in the EAP exchange?

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
