ONEX_EAP_METHOD_BACKEND_SUPPORT enumeration (dot1x.h)

  • Article

The ONEX_EAP_METHOD_BACKEND_SUPPORT enumerated type specifies the possible values for whether the EAP method configured on the supplicant for 802.1X authentication is supported on the authentication server.

Syntax

typedef enum _ONEX_EAP_METHOD_BACKEND_SUPPORT {
  OneXEapMethodBackendSupportUnknown,
  OneXEapMethodBackendSupported,
  OneXEapMethodBackendUnsupported
} ONEX_EAP_METHOD_BACKEND_SUPPORT;

Constants

 
OneXEapMethodBackendSupportUnknown
It is not known whether the EAP method configured on the supplicant for 802.1X authentication is supported on the authentication server. This value can be returned if the 802.1X authentication process is in the initial state.
OneXEapMethodBackendSupported
The EAP method configured on the supplicant for 802.1X authentication is supported on the authentication server. The 802.1X handshake is used to decide what is an acceptable EAP method to use.
OneXEapMethodBackendUnsupported
The EAP method configured on the supplicant for 802.1X authentication is not supported on the authentication server.

Remarks

The ONEX_EAP_METHOD_BACKEND_SUPPORT enumeration is used by the 802.1X module, a new wireless configuration component supported on Windows Vista and later.

The ONEX_RESULT_UPDATE_DATA contains information on a status change to 802.1X authentication. The ONEX_RESULT_UPDATE_DATA structure is returned when the NotificationSource member of the WLAN_NOTIFICATION_DATA structure is WLAN_NOTIFICATION_SOURCE_ONEX and the NotificationCode member of the WLAN_NOTIFICATION_DATA structure for received notification is OneXNotificationTypeResultUpdate. For this notification, the pData member of the WLAN_NOTIFICATION_DATA structure points to an ONEX_RESULT_UPDATE_DATA structure that contains information on the 802.1X authentication status change.

The BackendSupport member of the ONEX_RESULT_UPDATE_DATA struct contains a value from the ONEX_EAP_METHOD_BACKEND_SUPPORT enumeration.
