EAP-TLS Fragmentation Error

[freeradius at lunchinglads.net]

Hi Gang,

I get the following auth failure for machines connecting wirelessly through a Cisco AP-1142N:

> eap: Calling submodule eap_tls to process data
> eap_tls: Continuing EAP-TLS
> eap_tls: Peer indicated complete TLS record size will be 31 bytes

There appears to be no method to this madness. Same setup[1] at our auxiliary site and everything works fine.

I don't know how to interpret this error, so looking for a root cause has so far escaped me. Some of our Windows 10 workstations connect without any problems, some won't. The only obvious difference between those two locations is the model of Cisco WAP involved. Could this be an authenticator issue?

Any pointers greatly appreciated!
