802.1x Ethernet to Connect Automatically

[infrase2020]

Hi, 

I've created a 802.1x Ethernet configuration profile and deployed to a couple of test devices.

I can get 802.1x to connect going into Network - Ethernet Connection - Details - 802.1x - select Configuration Profile for Network and clicking connect. It auths via TLS and connects but i would like this to happen automatically, we cannot expect our users to manually go in and connect everytime.

Does anyone know how i get this to connect automatically?

TIA.

resolve the issue, had to include a username in the config profile even though we are using certificates for auth.

@infrase2020 even i have the same issue , if possible can you please share how did you fix the issue ? and also when a user uses a multiple adapters or network devices( Ethernet adapters ,docking station etc..) are you able to connect to 802.1x network ?

Nope, i thought i had fixed it but it doesn't automatically connect.

I think I'm having a similar issue but with Wifi.

I can select the 802.1X network but I then get a prompt asking me to select the right certificate identity.

I'm however expecting macOS to select the right identity straight away without asking the user.

Did you find a solution to your issue?
