    Hello hot_111,

     

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 

     

    It looks like as of iOS 5.1 iOS devices did support  802.1x  EAP-SIM authentication. See this:

    You can integrate iOS devices into a broad range of RADIUS authentication environments. 802.1X wireless authentication methods supported on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch include EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, EAP-FAST, EAP- SIM, PEAPv0, PEAPv1, and LEAP. 

    This and more information is contained in the following article:

    Apple Technical White Paper 802.1x Authentication

     

    I have not found any information indicating that this support has been removed. 

     

    Best regards.
