Hi Petri X,
802.1x can be disabled on the network, not on the Surface Hub. The Surface Hub is ready to connect using 802.1x if it's requested by the network.
In regards to the Device account, you will need to have the .csv file configured as described in this article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/surface-hub/provisioning-packages-for-surface-hub#sample-configuration-file
Thanks,
Cezar

Oh, interesting!
But do you mean that settings on the configuration designer does not do the same?
That designer I'm using also to disable the 802.1x. See on the same page topic DOT3.

So the DOT3 instructions are to configure the 802.1x profile that will allow the device to connect to a network that requires it. If the network doesn't, you don't need to do anything. Also, note that this is for the wired configuration.
As to the device account, the settings you mentioned will not work. Please follow the process I shared earlier.
Best regards,
Cezar

Yes, you are correct about the 802.1x profiles, but that also gives possibility to disable the whole 802.1x, as that seems to be the best start on our environment.
Yes, I'll try with the .csv files, let see does it bring any lights.
But I'm not sure do I understand you correctly: "...the settings you mentioned will not work...". How do you feel they are not working? On that same page it describes the Advanced Provisioning. And that in my mind should support the configurations.
