Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The invalid 802.1X authentication policy on the authenticator is causing the issue. The authenticator is the device that is responsible for authenticating the user to the network. If the authentication policy on the authenticator is invalid, the user will not be able to authenticate to the network, even if they have the correct credentials.
