I have the iOS 9 beta on my phone and I was unable to connect to any 802.1x 
networks.  I have OS 10.11 on my laptop, but I haven't brought it to campus yet.

I can confirm that the issue was TLS v1.2 support in our RADIUS servers.  
Upgrading the RADIUS software and dependencies, along with adding a new line to 
the configuration fixed the issue.  We were already using a 4096-bit cert.  We 
don't terminate any 802.1x on our Aruba controllers, but I heard it does not 
support TLS v1.2 either.  I don't know if or when that will be fixed if it 
hasn't been already.

One more piece of information : we also run Aruba ClearPass, and our Apple 
Engineer contact told us that the issue is support for TLS v1.2 - its now 
"included" in iOS 9 & OSX 10.11

Note that the certificate bit length is different from the Diffie-Hellman group 
bit length; the latter is what is referred to in that document.

Also worth noting is that there are other Apple documents that say that OS X 
10.10.4 and iOS 8.4 require a 2048-bit DH group, so there appears to be some 
discrepancy at least in the docs.

We had to upgrade both ClearPass (6.5.2 plus a patch) and our Aruba controller 
code (6.4.2.9) to get both iOS 9 and OS X 10.11 to work with our 802.1X network.
