Hello Kehinde,
It depends what you need the provisioner for, but to be honest, the best
use case of the provisioner is to provide client with certificates to
then authenticate on a EAP-TLS connection.
If you are using hidden SSID, I think it is nice for the client to not
have to configure manually the SSID. For let say a WPA2-Entreprise PEAP
not hidden, no I don't think it is necessary.
The use is also that it avoid users mistakes while configuring it.
Let us know if that help.
Thanks

Hello guys,
First would like to thank the Packetfence team for the great work done
so far and the continuous effort put in to make the solution even better.
I have a quick question regarding the Provisioner configuration and
how to set it up with mobile phones.
Assuming SSID is not hidden, after the provisoner is configured on PF
and the provisioner is tied to a Connection Profile, is the
provisioner setup here needed since I can easily login from the
captive portal.
And assuming SSID is hidden, will the mobile user need to setup this
manually at first time, and when browsing at first time, a link to
the Play Store will be displayed where the Packetfence agent can be
installed or how is the setup going to be like on the mobile phone?
In summary, is there any real use for the provisioner since I can set
it up manually at first run and save my settings for subsequent use.
Regards,
Kehinde
