I have a 2 tier PKI infrastructure. With my SUB CA issuing certificates to machines(win 10) and user's through group policy. We are testing certificate based authentication with the NAC(aruba clearpass).The machine has user and the client certificate, we changed the network adaptor settings to smart card and other certificates. EAP-TLS is configured on the NAC.
The machine authentication is successful but while user authentication it is unsuccessful and in the event log we find :
A certificate could not be found that can be used with this extensible authentication protocol.
My user certificate is v3 cert with Client Authentication, Server Authentication usage.
