A system supplies configuration information, via an EAP protocol, to a remote device trying to access the network. An authentication server performs an authentication exchange by receiving, from a remote device, a connection attempt to access the network. The authentication server performs an authentication exchange with the remote device to allow the remote device access to the network. During the authentication exchange, a configuration selection characteristic associated with the remote device is identified. A device configuration to be applied to the remote device, based on the configuration selection characteristic, is determined. The authentication server provides the determined device configuration to the remote device, via an EAP protocol, to allow the remote device to install the determined device configuration prior to being allowed access to the network.
