Hello all,

I've been testing with 2 devices (Samsung s10 upgraded to android 11 and 
Samsung s20 also upgraded to android 11).
It seems that I'm still able to select "Do not validate" on these devices.

Is this because these devices were upgraded to android 11 and that the newer 
devices which were released with android 11 don't allow the "Do not validate"?
Or are the pixel phones the only ones?

Regards,

Mathieu

Onderwerp: [WIRELESS-LAN] android 11 upcoming changes Feb 15th 2021

FYI

I just received the following from securew2 about some additional security 
changes coming to android 11.




This action will need to take place before the upcoming Android application 
update that is planned for February 15th, 2021.



As you may already be aware, Google mandates server validation to be properly 
configured for WiFi from Android version 11. This means that any 802.1X WiFi 
configuration without the following two settings will fail to connect.



1.      Server Validation

2.      Connect to these server names



For more information about these configurations, please read below.



What is Server Validation in a Network Profile?

This configuration item is for clients to validate a RADIUS server certificate 
chain during an EAP authentication. Clients would forward its requests only 
when the received server certificate is signed by the CA that is configured on 
the SecureW2 Network Profile.  It may be required to upload only the Root CA of 
the RADIUS server certificate, however, in some cases, the full chain may need 
to be provided.



What is the Connect to these server names field?

This field is used to specify the name of your RADIUS server certificate using 
its Common Name. If there is only one RADIUS server in your setup, you can 
quickly find this name from the certificate. If there are more than one RADIUS 
servers, or if the RADIUS server Common Name has more than two subdomains, we 
advise to use a wildcard name.



For example:

If the RADIUS server certificate's Common Name = radius.domain.com Connect to 
these server names should be radius.domain.com



If the RADIUS server certificate's Common Name = 
radius.lab.department.domain.com Connect to these server names should be 
*.department.domain.com or *.domain.com









Thanks

Trent
