"As of now Android doesn’t support 802.1x Authentication over Ethernet natively."

Below components need to be changed/modified

  • Ethernet Supplicant
  • Ethernet Supplicant interface
  • EthernetManager and EthernetService
  • IPConfiguration

Proposed solution supports EAP-TLS, EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS, EAP-MD5 and EAP-PWD authentication methods.

Solution is ready and tested on AOSP Android 4.4, Android 7, Android 9, Android 10, Android 11, Android 12 and Android 13. Contact for more details.

Hello Dharmesh Patel,
Is there any official documentation from Android where they specify this change? Just wanted to research more on this item.

The specified changes are part of custom solution of 802.1x in Android.

I am referring to the changes made by Android, when they decided to drop support for 802.1X. I am browsing their repo and cannot find any relevant changes where they decided not to support it anymore...

P.S. Can you solution be applied to a Samsung device?

Android only support Wifi based 802.1x. Android doesn't support Ethernet based 802.1x. The provided custom solution is different based on different version of Android OS.
