Having a strange issue. Created a 802.1x network configuration profile in April and everything works on my test machines. As the months passed I found that some users could not connect to the corporate wireless even though the profile and PKI cert were present. This week I found that some of my user's 802.1x tabs are completely blank even with the profile in place. Only way to fix the issue is to redeploy the profile.

Have a similar issue trying to update our old wireless config with a new one. I think it’s a known issue…but I don’t know who the issue is with. 

Following.

I created an extension attribute for this issue. The EA can be used to create a smart group for tracking. Once you've identified all machines without the correct configuration, you can redeploy your wireless profile. 

#!/bin/bash # SSID Variable ssid="" # Corporate Wireless Variable corporateWireless=$(defaults read /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.network.eapolclient.configuration | grep -o "$ssid") # Determine if 802.1x Profile is properly installed if [[ $corporateWireless == "$ssid" ]]; then echo "<result>Configured</result>" else echo "<result>Not Configured</result>" fi
