Because you're unfamiliar with the correct terminology, and with how
things really work. To recap:
EAP-TLS uses certificates to identify users. And nothing else. No
passwords, etc.
AD is a database. MySQL is a database. They store user information.
They don't authenticate users.
FreeRADIUS is an authentication server. Where necessary, it pulls
user information from a database. It also returns user profiles to a
WiFI AP. e.g. VLAN, etc.
