How Do I Authenticate to the Network With 802.1X Authentication So That I Can Decrypt the Root Volume With Clevis/Tang?

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • Need to authenticate to the network using 802.1x before the root volume is able to be decrypted with clevis/tang
  • Our network is secured with 802.1x and our root volume is encrypted and needs to be decrypted through the network with clevis/tang before the system can be used. How can we authenticate to the network in order to decrypt the volume so that the boot process can complete?
