802.1x certificates and new SSID

[itdirectorscut]

Hi!

 

We are using 802.1x and working great on an existing SSID however we are pushing out a new SSID again with 802.1x with AES (currently TKIP) and the only way for the laptop to connect to the new SSID is connecting them to the ethernet and doing a GPUPDATE. We pushed out the new policy a while ago and was hoping the laptop would connect to the new SSID and then after a few weeks turn off the old one.

 

Trying to get staff to hand in laptops is always a nightmare so keen to do this in the background.

 

Any ideas, is it possible to push out new wifi settings for devices that only connect via wifi?

 

Thanks!

Yes - you can use the netsh wlan command and import it via a script - keep the old SSID active, along side the new one, then deactivate the old SSID in time.
