After Your LEAP Credentials Expire

If the LEAP credentials (username and password) for your current profile expire or become invalid,
follow the steps below to reauthenticate.
Click OK when the following message appears: "The saved user name and password entered for this profile
Step 1
are no longer valid and have failed the LEAP authentication process. Please enter a new user name and
password. Remember to change them permanently in the profile using the ACU Profile Manager."
Step 2 When the LEAP login screen appears, enter your new username and password and click OK. The client
adapter should authenticate using your new credentials.
Note
Edit the profile in ACU by changing the saved username and password on the LEAP Settings screen.
Step 3
Click OK three times to save the changes to your profile.
Step 4

Using EAP-TLS

After Profile Selection or Card Insertion

After you (or auto profile selection) select a profile that uses host-based EAP authentication and you
configure the card in Windows (provided Windows is using the Microsoft 802.1X supplicant) for
EAP-TLS authentication or you eject and reinsert the client adapter while this profile is selected, follow
the steps below to EAP authenticate.
If your computer is running Windows XP and a pop-up message appears above the Windows system tray
Step 1
informing you that you need to accept a certificate to begin the EAP authentication process, click the
message and follow the instructions provided to accept the certificate.
Note
If a message appears indicating the root certification authority for the server's certificate, and it is the
Step 2
correct certification authority, click OK to accept the connection. Otherwise, click Cancel.

If you click Cancel rather than OK on the LEAP login screen, the following message appears:
"The profile will be disabled until you select the Reauthenticate option, Windows restarts, or the
card is ejected and reinserted. Are you sure?" If you click No, the LEAP login screen reappears
and allows you to enter your new credentials. If you click Yes, the current profile is disabled until
you select Reauthenticate from ACM or the Commands drop-down menu in ACU, reboot your
computer, or eject and reinsert the card. The Current Profile field on the ACU Status screen lists
the profile as being Disabled.
You should not have to accept a certificate for future authentication attempts. After you accept
one, the same certificate is used subsequently.
