Radius - WAP - "Validating Identity" message
Today one of our wireless access points is not letting anyone in and keeps on displaying "validating identity" on the view wireless networks panel on each laptop. I know it's using radius for authentication on the server end, and that's about it. It's a Cisco POE device. I tried power-cycling the device and it's still not working.
Any ideas?

I don't know, and I just checked all of our servers and that service does not appear to be running, nor is the cert authority server configured on any of them.
Is there anyway else this can be configured? There is no documentation on this end.

Jakob - I did that, and still nothing. I appreciate all the guidance. I think I'm going to throw in the towel and have a consultant stop by and take a look at the situation.
