If you plan to use EAP-TLS as your authentication protocol for user-level authentication on a dial-up, PPTP VPN, or L2TP/IPSec VPN connection, or if you plan to use L2TP/IPSec with computer certificates for your VPN connection, or if you plan to do both, you must have a certificate infrastructure in place in your network.
