In the Enterprise Deployment Guide, it says that as of version 3.2, iOS supports the following 802.1X authentication methods for WPA Enterprise and WPA2 Enterprise networks:

EAP-TLS
EAP -TTLS
EAP-FAST
EAP-SIM
PEAP v0
PEAP v1
LEAP

I don't know how you'd configure that on an individual iPhone, but that guide might be of help.

Regards.

Thanks for the manual, although the manual stated it is support PEAP (which is good to know) but there is no instruction on how to setup!

Any one know how?

From what other sites say, such as these:

you just connect to the secure wireless and accept the certificate when presented. Nothing special appears to need to be set. But perhaps someone else here will have further information.

Our office's WiFi require us to manually upload/install the cert. onto the laptop, computer or phone. I have already emailed the cert to myself and installed into my iPhone. When I try to join the network there is not option for me to pick EAP-MSCHAPv2 this is require for windows.

At this point I give up.
