The CredentialsBlob (EapHostUserCredentials) element is used when the method configuration is a binary BLOB instead of in XML text format.
<xs:element name="CredentialsBlob"
type="hexBinary"
/>
The CredentialsBlob element is defined by the EapHostUserCredentials element.
Remarks
The Credentials and CredentialsBlob elements cannot both be used simultaneously.
For certificate-based authentication, the CredentialsBlob should contain the SHA-1 hash (thumbprint) of the certificate, encoded as hexBinary. This 20-byte SHA-1 hash uniquely identifies the certificate and allows EAPHost to locate it in the system's certificate store. The actual certificate must already be present in the user's or computer's certificate store.
To obtain the SHA-1 thumbprint of a certificate, open the certificate in the Certificates MMC snap-in, navigate to the Details tab, and copy the value from the Thumbprint field. The hexadecimal string should be formatted without spaces when used in the binary blob.
For more information about certificate credentials, see EapCertificateCredential.
