Overview of Configurating Cloudpath

If you deploy certificate=based authentication, a server running NPS must have a server certificate. During the autentication process, the NPS sends the server certificate to the client computer as proof of identity.

To work with Cloudpath, the NPS requires a server certificate and the private key of the Root CA from Cloudpath. The certificates are generated and downloaded from Cloudpath and then uploaded to the NPS.

This section describes how to configure Cloudpath as a private CA, generate the RADIUS server certificate, download the public and private key of the RADIUS server certificate, and download the public key of the intermediate CA.
