This article describes how to setup EAP-TLS on various Linux distributions. EAP-TLS is a strong wireless authentication scheme of choice for many large institutions such as universities and corporations and is used by Virginia Tech for connections to VT-Wireless.

Obtain the VT-Wireless Certificate

Regardless of what program you use to make your connection, you will need to obtain your p12 certificate and password from CNS, which is needed to establish your connection. Note the certificate password; you can save it permanently if you'd like, but you will only need it during set up.
