The clean solution is <strong>WPA2-Enterprise</strong>—each user authenticates with their own Active Directory credentials, without ever entering a WiFi password. The domain-joined laptop connects automatically, transparently, as soon as the Ethernet cable is unplugged.</p> <p>In this article, we'll transform an existing SSID into WPA2-Enterprise using <strong>NPS (Network Policy Server)</strong> as the RADIUS server, <strong>Active Directory</strong> for user management, and a <strong>GPO</strong> to automate the connection on domain laptops. We'll use <strong>Cisco Aironet</strong> access points in standalone mode.</p>
