Cisco ISE Certficate authentication Profile - Recommended Subject identifier

Hi,
1. I wanted to know what would be the recommended subject identifier that should be used in Certificate authentication profile when doing EAP TLS with Active Directory - CA.
2. I am trying to use Subject - DNS Name but when issuing Certificate for a user from AD CA with DNS Name SAN value checked it fails and the following error is shown failed requests
"DNS Name is unavailable and cannot be added to the subject alternate name" (I maybe missing some user configuration in AD that makes DNS name for a user??)
For computers its issuing the certificate.. No Issues
Thank in advance for your help.
Regards,
Mudasir Abbas

Not a cert expert by any means but that error message does makes sense. Your domain computers automatically get a DNS record when joined to the domain. However, there is no DNS entry for your users. So for your users I would recommend that you build your certificate templates based on the SAN - Email or the Common Name. If you use the SAN-Email, make sure that your AD users do have their e-mail address listed in their domain accounts. 
Hope this helps!

  • Cisco ISE and Authentication Failed VLAN

    I am trying to setup ISE to assign a VLAN to unauthorized computers. I tried using "authentication event fail action authorize vlan 666" command but unfortunately I'm using multi-auth because we have users with bridged VMs and Cisco does not support it (http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst3560/software/release/12.2_55_se/configuration/guide/sw8021x.html#wp1454875).
    Is there a way to make an Authorization/Authentication profile within ISE to assign the VLAN to failed devices?

    You can set endpoint protection status to quarantine, and establish policies  that assign different
    authorization profiles, depending on the status of the  endpoint.
    Quarantine essentially moves an endpoint from its default VLAN to a  specified Quarantine VLAN. The
    The Quarantine VLAN must be previously defined  by a network administrator and supported on the
    same NAS as the endpoint.  Unquarantine reverses the quarantine action, returning the endpoint to  its
    original VLAN.
    The quarantine and unquarantine actions are performed  as a result of established Authorization Rules
    that are defined to check for  EPSStatus

  • Cisco ISE and authentication for 802.1x printer

    Hello
    What is the best practice to authenticate a 802.1x printer in Cisco ISE?
    The printer can store a certificate for authentication and support EAP-TLS.
    Thanks for answer.
    Marco

    EAP-TLS is the way to go. It is way way way more secure than MAB and profiling. However, the question is "How much of a hassle is it going to be to put a certificate on each printer?" Moreover, "What methods do I have (if any) to renew those certificates when they expire?" If have to manually generate a CSR and install a cert on each printer then it can quickly become an administrative overhead nightmare. With that being said, you can use MAB and profiling but just make sure that you lock down the access that those printers get. For instance, do they need access to the internet? Do they need access to anything else but the print server and/or open to all IPs access but only on the printing ports. 
    I hope this puts you in the right direction!

  • Cisco ISE and NAM profile

    Hi,
    Is there any way to push configuration.xml created localy via NAM configuration profile tool to all clients dot1x then they connects to Cisco Catalyst Swithes and make AAA with ISE-->AD.
    Cisco ASA can do it for VPN client (push them xml profile), any similar things with ISE possible?
    thanks

    You have the ability to push a file with ISE, however after you modify the configuration.xml file you then have to select repair device, which you can not do that easily. You can try to have ISE deploy a script where the client downloads the file from an ftp server and then the script repairs the network adapter.
    That will however require some knowledge on scripting.
    Thanks,

  • Cisco ISE Guest Authentication Failed : 86020: Unknown exception

    Hi,
    I would like to check what may be causing the error message 86020:unknown exception for ise when guest user authenticates via wireless using CWA? I have also attached a screen capture of the error and after the authenitcation logs change to autheorization only succeed after a repeated trying. Based on user feedback for failed login, When guest user gets conected to wirless and login in to guest  portal with credential after putting credential  then its again redirect  to same login page wihout successful login prompt; not too sure if there may be any settings that may be looked into and the reason for the unknown exception error?
    Any suggestion/recommendation is appreciated.

    Hi Tarik,
    Not too sure if i understand on the static hostname for redirection; there are 2 PSNs for the deployment however they are acting as active/secondary for the wireless (This is done from the wlan on the wlc to set the primary/secondary radius server). From the guest redirection; it is always hitting the primary radius server defined on the wlan/wlc. The ise is running version 1.1.4 with patch 8 applied.
    Not  too sure if there may be any settings that may be looked into for the guest authentication/redirection and the reason for the unknown exception error?
    Thanks.

  • Cisco ISE Disabled authentication in portal guest

    Hi, dear..
    How to disabled autentication in portal guest to ends users ? It is possible ?we have customers who have laptop with GPOs, allowing not show my guest portal.
    tks

    I don't understand your question.... they have GPO that prevents the end user from seeing the guest SSID?  If so, you can't do anything about that and would have to remove that restriction from GPO.  If your talking about having end users not have to go through the portal page, then your either have them connect to another SSID or your do a mac bypass.

  • Cisco ISE 1.2 and AD Group

    Hello,
    I have Cisco ISE installed on my EXSi server for my test pilot. I have added several AD groups to ISE as well.
    I have created an Authorization policy condition, which is WIRELESS_DOT1X_USERS (see screenshot)
    Basically, I just duplicated the default Wireless_802.1X and added Network Access:EapAuthentication, Equals, EAP-TLS.
    My problem is, I was unable to join the wireless network if I added my AD group to the Authorization policy (see screenshot). The user that I have is a member of WLAN-USERS. If I removed the AD group from the Authorization policy, the use is able to join the wireless network.
    I attached the ISE logs screenshot as well. I checked the ISE, AD/NPS, WLC, laptop time and date, and they are all in synched.
    I also have the WLC added as NPS client on my network.
    I checked the AD log and what I found was the WLCs local management user trying to authenticate. It is supposed to be my wireless user credential not the WLC.
    This is the log that I got from the AD/NPS
    Network Policy Server denied access to a user.
    Contact the Network Policy Server administrator for more information.

    Thank you Tarik,
    I got my AD group working. What I did, I checked the user's certificate that is installed on the laptop then modified the ISE certificate authentication profile to "Subject Alternative Name". I had the ISE set to common name when I was having an issue.
    I forgot to mentioned that I have to servers in my ISE test pilot. I have AD with NPS, and CA. These servers are Windows 2008 R2.
    I am a little confuse about the attribute in certificate template you have mentioned. Is that located at Certificate Authority/server-name/Certificate Templates/Users? I am not sure where to look for that attribute on the CA server.

  • Cisco ISE - General Info. & capabilities

    Hello All,
    I've read quiet a bit of ISE features, but would like to know the following:
    1. Can ISE provide/track details of user activity, like which servers/websites he accessed over a period of time?
    2. Can it provide details of how much data was transferred from a particular server to a specific client?
    3. For a 1500 user env. (1000 desktops and 500 wireless devices) which model of ISE would be appropriate?
    4. How would having ISE be different from already deployed authentication services like Active Directory or built-in application authentication for solutions like Oracle ERP systems?
    5. I see ISE as being marketed primarily for wireles devices (BYOD), but how would it help for wired devices (or does it become and unecessary authentication level apart from AD, switch based 802.1x, etc)
    Thank you.

    Cisco ISE is a consolidated policy-based access control system that  incorporates a superset of features available in existing Cisco policy  platforms. Cisco ISE performs the following functions:
    •Combines authentication, authorization, accounting (AAA), posture, and profiler into one appliance
    •Provides for comprehensive guest access management for the Cisco ISE administrator, sanctioned sponsor administrators, or both
    •Enforces  endpoint compliance by providing comprehensive client provisioning  measures and assessing device posture for all endpoints that access the  network, including 802.1X environments
    •Provides support for discovery, profiling, policy-based placement, and monitoring of endpoint devices on the network
    •Enables consistent policy in centralized and distributed deployments that allows services to be delivered where they are needed
    •Employs  advanced enforcement capabilities including security group access (SGA)  through the use of security group tags (SGTs) and security group access  control lists (SGACLs)
    •Supports scalability to support a number of deployment scenarios from small office to large enterprise environments
    The following key functions of Cisco ISE enable you to manage your entire access network.
    Provide Identity-Based Network Access
    The Cisco ISE solution provides context-aware identity management in the following areas:
    •Cisco ISE determines whether users are accessing the network on an authorized, policy-compliant device.
    •Cisco ISE establishes user identity, location, and access history, which can be used for compliance and reporting.
    •Cisco  ISE assigns services based on the assigned user role, group, and  associated policy (job role, location, device type, and so on).
    •Cisco  ISE grants authenticated users with access to specific segments of the  network, or specific applications and services, or both, based on  authentication results.
    ISE 3315 can support 1500 users with appropriate license.

  • Remote Access VPN posturing with Cisco ISE 1.1.1

    Hi all,
    we would like to start using our ISE for Remote VPN access.
    We have run a proof of concept with the ISE & IPEP with a Cisco ASA5505. We got the authentication working however posturing of the client did not work.
    That was a few months ago and so I was wondering whether any design document is available specifically around Using the Cisco ISE for Authenticating & Posturing Remote Access VPN clients.
    I understand that version 9 of the ASA code is supposed to eliminate the need for Inline Posture, does anyone know whether this will also allow posturing too?
    We do intend to by Cisco ASR's aswell, but I am sceptical of this as i do not know how many VPN licenses you get out of the box. The ASA's we have allow up to 5000 IPSec VPNs without having to purchase any licensing. What I do not want to do is to switch to SSL VPNs as this again will increase cost.
    I know ISR's are support NADs but what about ASRs? There is no mention.
    Any advise will be appreciated!
    Mario

    OK, I have come accross the Cisco Validated design for BYOD and in there it has a section about Authenticating VPNs.
    thats great... however it does not mention using the Inline posture node. Does anyone know if there is a limitation using Inline Posture and SSL VPNs...?
    essentially my requirements are
    2-factor authentication VPN using a Certificate & RSA Token
    Posturing of the VPN endpoint.
    Ideally i would like to use IPSec VPNs as i have licenses already for these on my ASAs. But if it will only work with SSL & AnyConnect, then so be it.
    Can anyone help?

  • Cisco ISE with both internal and External RADIUS Server

    Hi
    I have ISE 1.2 , I configured it as management monitor and PSN and it work fine
    I would like to know if I can integrate an external radius server and work with both internal and External RADIUS Server simultanously
    So some computer (groupe_A in active directory ) will continu to made radius authentication on the ISE internal radius and other computer (groupe_B in active directory) will made radius authentication on an external radius server
    I will like to know if it is possible to configure it and how I can do it ?
    Thanks in advance for your help
    Regards
    Blaise

    Cisco ISE can function both as a RADIUS server and as a RADIUS proxy server. When it acts as a proxy server, Cisco ISE receives authentication and accounting requests from the network access server (NAS) and forwards them to the external RADIUS server. Cisco ISE accepts the results of the requests and returns them to the NAS.
    Cisco ISE can simultaneously act as a proxy server to multiple external RADIUS servers. You can use the external RADIUS servers that you configure here in RADIUS server sequences. The External RADIUS Server page lists all the external RADIUS servers that you have defined in Cisco ISE. You can use the filter option to search for specific RADIUS servers based on the name or description, or both. In both simple and rule-based authentication policies, you can use the RADIUS server sequences to proxy the requests to a RADIUS server.
    The RADIUS server sequence strips the domain name from the RADIUS-Username attribute for RADIUS authentications. This domain stripping is not applicable for EAP authentications, which use the EAP-Identity attribute. The RADIUS proxy server obtains the username from the RADIUS-Username attribute and strips it from the character that you specify when you configure the RADIUS server sequence. For EAP authentications, the RADIUS proxy server obtains the username from the EAP-Identity attribute. EAP authentications that use the RADIUS server sequence will succeed only if the EAP-Identity and RADIUS-Username values are the same.

  • Cisco ise 1.2 install certificates for ise cluster question

    hello all i have an ise cluster of 4 devices. 1 primary admin/secondary monitor, 1 secondary admin/primary admin and 2 policy nodes
    i need to install public CA certs on them. can I generate 1 CSR on one of the nodes, that includes a SAN with the DNS names of all the nodes?
    Therefore get only 1 cert from the CA, and export and import the same cert into all the other nodes?
    or do i have to generate 1 CSR for each node and purchase 4 certs? Wild card certs is not an option. tHANKS,

    ISE allows you to install a certificate with multiple Subject Alternative Name (SAN) fields. A browser reaching the ISE using any of the listed SAN names will accept the certificate without any error as long as it trusts the CA that signed the certificate.
    The CSR for such a certificate cannot be generated from the ISE GUI. http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security/identity-services-engine-software/113675-ise-binds-multi-names-00.html
    Cisco ISE checks for a matching subject name as follows:
    1. Cisco ISE looks at the subject alternative name (SAN) extension of the certificate. If the SAN contains one or more DNS names, then one of the DNS names must match the FQDN of the Cisco ISE node. If a wildcard certificate is used, then the wildcard domain name must match the domain in the Cisco ISE node's FQDN.
    2. If there are no DNS names in the SAN, or if the SAN is missing entirely, then the Common Name (CN) in the Subject field of the certificate or the wildcard domain in the Subject field of the certificate must match the FQDN of the node.
    3. If no match is found, the certificate is rejected.

  • Facing issue in integrating with Cisco ISE

    We are trying to integrate our product(Cisco Prime Infrastructure) with Cisco ISE for Authentication and Authorizations. We already support PAP/CHAP, and not trying to add support for EAP-TLS.
    Currently during our integration, facing TLS payload errors. We are using jradius library for talk to Cisco ISE for authentication and facing the below TLS error in ISE logs. Tried with Cisco ISE 1.2 and 1.3 versions.

    Select the affected account and click Reinstate.
    It is possible, that your sponsor account does not have the permission to Reinstate/Suspend accounts. Check/change this in your ISE admin page:
    - Go to Administration > Guest Management > Sponsor Groups.
    - Click the Sponsor Group your sponsor account is a member of to edit.
    - Select tab Authorization Levels: view/modify the permission listed for the option Suspend/reinstate Accounts.
