Microsoft NPS with Mac Authentication

Question

_{Monday, June 15, 2015 8:01 AM}

Hi All,

I hope someone might be able to assist. I have managed to setup 802.1x authentication with my wireless system and NPS. Want I want to be able to do and am not sure on is how to get 802.1x and mac-auth working. I have a 3rd party product where I store all the mac addresses and want NPS to check this system to ensure the client is valid in the database of MAC addresses as well as authenticating the device. Is this possible? If so what does the setup look like?

Hi Spray,

I’m afraid NPS server could not use the mac addresses stored in 3^rd party product to implement mac authentication.

To implement mac authentication, we could configure NPS server to work with Active Directory.

Here is the guide:

MAC Address Authorization:
