Cisco ASA SourceFire Captive Portal

Hello
I would like to know if the Sourcefire is capable to use a captive portal to authenticate the users in the domain and get access to Internet?
Stay pending for an answer, thanks a lot.

Hi all,
This feature is very useful for "guest users" and/or no domain computer, that doesn't log in to AD.
Unfortunately, Others competitor has this feature and others important feature as: "SSL decrytion" PBR, virtual routers.
It's possible to request this "feature requrest" to Businiess Unity? or to have majoir visibility about the road-map of this implementation?
thank all
F.

Cisco ASA SourceFire SSL Inspection

Hello
How can the Sourcefire inspect the SSL traffic?
Stay pending for an answer, thanks a lot.

Thanks. Do you have any documentation that explains this? It seems like all the SSL decryption I read about, requires the decryption to device to generate it's own certificate to present to the user
For example, for Palo Alto's:
Outbound SSL decryption (called “SSL forward proxy”)
In this case, the firewall proxies outbound SSL connections. It intercepts the outbound SSL requests and generates a certificate on the fly, for the site the user wishes to visit. The validity date on the PA-generated certificate is taken from the validity date on the real server certificate.
The issuing authority of the PA-generated certificate is the Palo Alto Networks device. If the firewall’s certificate is not part of an existing hierarchy, or is not added to a client’s browser cache, then the client will receive a warning message when browsing to a secure site. If the real server certificate has been issued by an authority not trusted by the Palo Alto Networks firewall, then the decryption certificate will be issued using a second “untrusted” CA key. This is to insure that the user will be warned if there are subsequent man-in-the-middle attacks occurring.

Captive portal on rv220w?

Hello
Does the cisco rv220w have captive portal like the rv180w does, or will it be supported in future firmware?
Sorry for my bad English
Thanks in advance
Dennis

I've not seem anything in the RV220W firmware, You can setup multiple APs on the router and have a "guest" account for free users, but dont think the is a real captive portal.
Take a look here incase i missed something.

Captive Portal for Guest wireless using a Cisco ASA 5510 or just 1231 Autonomous AP's

Our environment consists of about 7 Cisco 1231 Access Points. We have multiple SSID's including a Guest SSID for internet only access. All Ap's are in autonomous mode. We have a Cisco ASA5510 at the internet perimeter. I would like to use what we have in house to setup a way in which all Guest Wirelsss users will be re-directed to a Captive Portal (Splash Page where there are given a custom warning page that instructs them about our Internet Accepted Usage Policy. Can I do anything with the ASA to dish out a page like this. I know that I can turn on an AAA rule on the ASA and force those users to have to authenticate when going to the internet but the Prompt page can't be customized too much. I can add some text but it gets mixed in with all the other default text.
I am not seeing a way to do URL redirection inside of the 1231 AP's themselves. I know that a controller environment would help me out but looking to find a solution with what equipment the I already have in place.
Any ideas??

Hi,
AFAIK. using Autonomous.. there is no way we can do that..

Cisco WAP321 Captive Portal Redirect

Hi I have setup a Cisco WAP321 as an Internet Cafe Captive Portal. When initially switched on clients connect and are redirected to the Log on page where they can add their name and tick to say they agree with the usage policy.
Works great, unfotunately the next day when the clients connect again they are never redirected to the logon page so cant access the internet.
I have tried putting in the redirect url and if i do that it works fine.
I have checked all my settings but cant find out why.
Anyone know why im not getting the redirect?
Thanks
Darren

Hi Luis
Thanks for the reply. I have been reading up on possible issues and just need to clarify whether the Guest WIFI has to be on VAP0? I have it configured on VAP2 and as i said initially it works OK and gives me the Redirect.
My WAP321 is connected to a Cisco 887 Router with the Port set to Trunk and the VAP2 is set to Vlan2.
VLAN 1 set to 192.168.192.1 255.255.255.128 and VLAN2 set to 192.168.192.193 255.255.255.224. DHCP scope on the Router is from 192.168.192.194 to 192.168.192.220.
Im back on site again this morning and its working after a reset. Ill monitor over the next day or so and see what happens

Inquiry - Cisco Captive Portal without WLC

Hi
based on article http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a008067489f.shtml
Is it possible or how should I design captive portal without WLC.
In our organization, I have about 20 AP (various models) running on standalone with VLAN and ACS server for MAC authentication.
I have plan to create new VLAN just only for guest users to browse with username/password URL redirectiotion (without MAC authentication).
Seek your help.
Thank You

Without a wlc you would need another solution to handle the portal piece.

Anyconnect 3.1 Captive Portal False Alert Stops Users Connecting.

Hi All,
I am having problems with a customer's ASA 5505 with Anyconnect 3.1 - it is generating captive portal false-alerts which are stopping users from connecting.
This issue began when I upgraded from Anyconnect 2.4 to 3.1, and it appears like this: A user downloads and installs the Anyconnect client and is able to connect fine, to begin with. However, once they reboot their computer and try to reconnect, the VPN session will not come up and they receive the error message below.
"The service provider in your current location is restricting access to the internet. You need to log on with the service provider before you can establish a VPN session. You can try this by visiting any website with your browser."
Reading other posts, it seems this message appears when a captive portal is restricting internet access. It must be a false alert in this case as there is nothing of the sort here. Apparently, Anyconnect 3.1 can generate a false alert like so if the name of the firewall's SSL certificate doesn't match the CName listed on the Client Profile. I've set this up to match, to no avail.
Although users can connect by reauthenticating through the SSL VPN login web page, I am stumped as to how to get rid of this captive portal error that pops up when they try to use the Anyconnect client.
Any advice would be appreciated, just let me know what extra details to post if needed.
Many thanks,
Josh Campbell

Hi Joshua,
The below information could be located at
www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/vpn_client/anyconnect/anyconnect31/administration/guide/ac03vpn.html
False Captive Portal Detection
AnyConnect can falsely assume it is in a captive portal in the following situations.
•If AnyConnect attempts to contact an ASA with a certificate containing an incorrect server name (CN), then the AnyConnect client will think it is in a "captive portal" environment.
To prevent this, make sure the ASA certificate is properly configured. The CN value in the certificate must match the name of the ASA server in the VPN client profile.
•If there is another device on the network before the ASA, and that device responds to the client's attempt to contact an ASA by blocking HTTPS access to the ASA, then the AnyConnect client will think it is in a "captive portal" environment. This situation can occur when a user is on an internal network, and connects through a firewall to connect to the ASA.
If you need to restrict access to the ASA from inside the corporation, configure your firewall such that HTTP and HTTPS traffic to the ASA's address does not return an HTTP status. HTTP/HTTPS access to the ASA should either be allowed or completely blocked (also known as black-holed) to ensure that HTTP/HTTPS requests sent
There is also a bug filed for this. Just for your reference,
CSCud17825 - Anyconnect captive portal

Cisco ASA 5505 Routing between internal networks

Hi,
I am new to Cisco ASA and have been configuring my new firewall but one thing have been bothering. I cannot get internal networks and routing between them to work as I would like to. Goal is to set four networks and control access with ACL:s between those.
1. Outside
2. DMZ
3. ServerNet1
4. Inside
ASA version is 9.1 and i have been reading on two different ways on handling IP routing with this. NAT Exempt and not configuring NAT at all and letting normal IP routing to handle internal networks. No matter how I configure, with or without NAT I cannot get access from inside network to DMZ or from ServerNet1 to DMZ. Strange thing is that I can access services from DMZ to Inside and ServerNet1 if access list allows it. For instance DNS server is on Inside network and DMZ works great using it.

Hi Jouni,
Yep, Finnish would be good also =)
In front of ASA is DSL modem, on the trunk ports is Hyper-V host that uses the trunk ports so that every VM has their VLAN ID defined in the VM level. Everything is working good on that end. Also there is WLAN Access Pois on one of the ASA ports, on the WLAN AP there is the management portal address on DMZ that i have been testing agains (192.168.3.4)
If i configure Dynamic PAT from inside to the DMZ then the traffic starts to work from inside to all hosts on DMZ but thats not the right way to do it so no shortcuts =)
Here is the conf now, still doesnt work:

ISE captive portal timeouts and radio policy

Hello!
I have two questions.
First, have some of you guys worked with the captive portal in ISE (guestportal)?
I have set up a new wireless network for a customer and they want to use the guest portal for som users.
The problem that I am expering is that on a particular site with many small buildings user complains that they have to reauthenticate using the webportal when moving between the buildnings.
I have tired extending the idle user timeout on that particular wlan in the cisco 5508, but I still having this problem.
I would actually like if the user login via the guestportal at the beginning of the work day and after say 4-5 hours they have to reautencitcate.
And if they loose network connectivity (moving between buildings, iphone/andriod shutting down wifi adapter, etc) they shuld be fine connecting again because they have aldready authecnticated once during the last 4-5 hours.
Is this possible via the ISE?
My second question deals with 2.4 and 5 Ghz band.
I use AP groups on each of my distribution areas. All groups have the same SSID but diffrenet egress interfaces (interfaces groups).
And in some of these I want to save the 5 GHz band for voice over wlan and in others i would like to use both bands.
Do I have to create diffrent wlan profiles with diffrent radio policys and same SSID or could I do this in the AP group settings using RF-profiles?
Hope for some help!
//Simon

Your first answer is there is no such option in ISE till now there you can specify the login time fix for a client. If the client disconnect from the network and reconnect again, it require re-authentication Every time.
2nd : You can use the AP group settings using RF-profiles to achieve this task.1st: There is no such option in ISE till now there you can specify the login time fix for a client. If the client disconnect from the network and reconnect again, it require re-authentication Every time.
your seconde answer : You can use the AP group settings using RF-profiles to achieve this task.

Captive Portal with two or more WAP321

Hello,
I plan to use the WAP321 as a WLAN Hotspot. But I need more than one AP. What is the Design for this?
Do I need to configure every WAP321 with the captive portal and the user need to re-login every time they roam to another WAP321?
Or can I redirect all WAP321 AP to one captive portal?
Thank for your support.
Christian

Nicola,
It may be too late, but with the new version1.0.2.3 software you can create a cluster of up to 8 WAP321's in order to share one configuration. The feature is called Single Point. Here is a paper on the feature

How to redirect https traffic to captive portal?

Any WLC controller model (8500/5508/2504/vWLC) version 7.3 and up..
This is unusual scenario wherein clients have a default homepage to https://www.google.com (sample only)
Typical http web redirection don't have any problem at all. When you open your browser and type http://www.google.com it will redirect to captive portal without any problem.
Is there any way to redirect https traffic to captive portal as well?

redirection only happen on http traffic, a feature request has been issued to have the redirection happen on https.

Bug in wifi/wireless connection with captive portal in UK/London ?

With my macbook pro (10.6.4) & iphone (iOS 4), I do not manage to have an easy connect on free wifi captive portals in London. They all are new connections (unknown networks before).
* dhcpd lease seems to be instable. I can get wifi connection (with good wifi signal strength) but most of the time get a "non-allocated" lease like 169.254.57.x/24 without any router/dns. A few rare times, the dhcp server give a me a complete ip connection.
* in the rare case where IP connection could established, I was not redirected to the captive portal. I had to manually enter its address (in my case <IP>:8000, you need to guess) and even after authentication, I can't browse the Internet. In one of my test, I managed to resolve dns entry but can't browse the web.
I tried during an hour and I couldn't make it on work on my Macbook. work a small time with the iPhone.
tested in McDo free wifi and Airbox Public Wifi of EasyHotel (Airbox system). also have problem with "Wifi Zone - The Cloud".
ok in Starbucks and in St Pancras Free Wifi.
Found these threads which could be related but no real solutions:

This is probably the router's fault but I can't check this.

Hmm...pretty interesting. What redirection mode did you use for m0n0wall? (http or dns) Have you tried disabling the NAT on the router as well as unchecking the block anonymous internet requests on the security tab?
I have a similar setup on a T1----media converter----WRT54G setup. Basically, the router was able to get public wan ip addresses on the status page. So do the computers behind it (wired and wireless) but they aren't online. We pinged the three dns numbers on the router, only 1 replied. Now, the ISP has Cisco all-access installed on the converter (quite similar to captive portal) and it shows up on every computer when we try to go online. We open up the browser, it prompts for the authentication. We fill-in the details but still it doesn't go online. Bottom line was we cloned the mac of the main computer and they didn't need to authenticate...but then again it defeats the purpose of the software.
Also, the router was set as a DHCP server with NAT enabled. I'm thinking that the router's firewall still blocks your computers even when it's already set as a switch. Try to disable the NAT and see if it works.

Setting UP Captive Portal ON 5508 WLC

Dear All,
I do know that captive portal could be setup on cisco 5508, such that internet users could login as follows:
Username, password , login duration etc.
however i would like to know whether the above configuration would work with just 5508 and MS Active directory.or do we need any other device to achieve this.
secondly can we upload a customised login web page from which users can login and gain access to the internet ?
Jude.

1. i would like to know whether the above configuration would work with just 5508 and MS Active directory
Yes, you would need to configure an LDAP server on the WLC pointed to your MS AD, binding properly. Then, make sure your L3 authentication priority is configured to query LDAP first. This works pretty well in a L3 web-auth scenario, but is limited when using LOCAL EAP

2. can we upload a customised login web page from which users can login and gain access to the internet ?
Yes; start by downloading the webauth_bundle.zip for your respective release/platform.

ISE Wired captive portal

I've a new ISE Integration, I've implemented captive portal for wireless and wired guests, for Wireless all is working perfect
For Wired I can see that ISE put the url captive on the interface of the switch but from the laptop of windows machine, I'm unable to see the link on browser, please advice

In the same document you have
Wired NAD Interaction for Central WebAuth
If your client's machine is hard wired to a NAD, the guest service interaction takes the form of a failed MAB request that leads to a guest portal Central WebAuth login.
The Central WebAuth triggered by a MAB failure flow follows these steps:
1. The client connects to the NAD through a hard-wired connection. There is no 802.1X supplicant on the client.
2. An authentication policy with a service type for MAB allows a MAB failure to continue and return a restricted network profile containing a URL-redirect for Central WebAuth user interface.
3. The NAD is configured to post MAB requests to the Cisco ISE RADIUS server.
4. The client machine connects and the NAD initiates a MAB request.
5. The Cisco ISE server processes the MAB request and does not find an end point for the client machine. This MAB failure resolves to the restricted network profile and returns the URL-redirect value in the profile to the NAD in an access-accept. To support this function, ensure that an Authorization Policy exists featuring the appropriate "NetworkAccess:UseCase=Hostlookup" and "Session:Posture Status=Unknown" conditions.
The NAD uses this value to redirect all client HTTP/HTTPS traffic on ports 8080 or 8443 to the URL-redirect value. The standard URL value in this case is:
https://ip:port/guestportal/gateway?sessionId=NetworkSessionId&action=cwa.
6. The client initiates an HTTP or HTTPS request to any URL using the client browser.
7. The NAD redirects the request to the URL-redirect value returned from the initial access-accept.
8. The gateway URL value with action CWA redirects to the guest portal login page.
9. The client enters the username and password and submits the login form.
10. The guest action server authenticates the user credentials provided.
11. If the credentials are valid, the username and password are stored in the local session cache by the guest action server.
12. If the guest portal is configured to perform Client Provisioning, the guest action redirects the client browser to the Client Provisioning URL. (You can also optionally configure the Client Provisioning Resource Policy to feature a "NetworkAccess:UseCase=GuestFlow" condition.)
Since there is no Client Provisioning or Posture Agent for Linux, guest portal redirects to Client Provisioning, which in turn redirects back to a guest authentication servlet to perform optional IP release/renew and then CoA.
13. If the guest portal is not configured to perform Client Provisioning, the guest action server sends a CoA to the NAD through an API call. This CoA will cause the NAD to reauthenticate the client using the RADIUS server. This reauthentication makes use of the user credentials stored in the session cache. A new access-accept is returned to the NAD with the configured network access. If Client Provisioning is not configured and the VLAN is in use, the guest portal performs VLAN IP renew.
14. With redirection to the Client Provisioning URL, the Client Provisioning subsystem downloads a non-persistent web-agent to the client machine and perform posture check of the client machine. (You can optionally configure the Posture Policy with a "NetworkAccess:UseCase=GuestFlow" condition.)
15. If the client machine is non-complaint, ensure you have configured an Authorization Policy that features "NetworkAccess:UseCase=GuestFlow" and "Session:Posture Status=NonCompliant" conditions.
16. Once the client machine is compliant, ensure you have an Authorization policy configured with conditions "NetworkAccess:UseCase=GuestFlow" and "Session:Posture Status=Compliant" conditions), From here, the Client Provisioning issues a CoA to the NAD. This CoA will cause the NAD to reauthenticate the client using the RADIUS server. This reauthentication makes use of the user credentials stored in the session cache. A new access-accept is returned to the NAD with the configured network access.

Please refer to attachment. Not annoying stuff but a little of strange there.
