Cisco ISE - EAP-TLS - Machine / User Authentication - Multiple Certificate Authentication Profiles (CAP)

Hello,
I'm trying to do machine and user authentication using EAP-TLS and digital certificates.  Machines have certificates where the Principal Username is SAN:DNS, user certificates (smartcards) use SAN:Other Name as the Principal Username.
In ISE, I can define multiple Certificate Authentication Profiles (CAP).  For example CAP1 (Machine) - SAN:DNS, CAP2 (User) - SAN:Other Name
Problem is how do you specify ISE to check both in the Authentication Policy?  The Identity Store Sequence only accepts one CAP, so if I created an authentication policy for Dot1x to check CAP1 -> AD -> Internal, it will match the machine cert, but fail on user cert.  
Any way to resolve this?
Thanks,
Steve

You need to use the AnyConnect NAM supplicant on your windows machines, and use the feature called eap-chaining for that, windows own supplicant won't work.
an example (uses user/pass though, but same concept)

  • 802.1x eap-tls machine + user authentication (wired)

    Hi everybody,
    right now we try to authenticate the machines and users which are plugged to our switches over 802.1X eap-tls. Works just fine with windows.
    You plug a windows laptop to a switchport and machine authenticates over eap-tls with computer certificate. Now the user logsin and our RADIUS (Cisco ACS) authenticates the user as well, with the user certificate. After eap-tls user-authentication the RADIUS checks if the workstation on which the user is currently logged in is authenticated as well. If yes = success, if no the switchport will not allow any traffic.
    Now we have to implement the same befaviour on our MacBooks Pro. Here the problems start. First of all I installed user and computer certificates issued by our CA (Win 2008 R2). So far so good. Now I have no idea how to implement the same chain of authentication. I was reading countless blogs, discussions, documentations etc. about how to create .mobileconfig profiles. Right now im able to authenticate the machine, and _only_ if I login. As soon as I logout eap-tls stops to work. It seems that loginwindow does not know how to authenticate.
    1) how do I tell Mavericks to authenticate with computer certificate while no user is loged in ? already tried profiles with
    <key>SetupModes</key>
    <array>
        <string>System</string>
        <string>Loginwindow</string>
    </array>
    <key>PayloadScope</key>
        <string>System</string>
    but it does not work
    2) How do I tell Mavericks to reauthenticate with user certificate when user logs in ?
    Thanks

    Unfortunatelly this documents do not describe how to do what I want.
    I already have an working 802.1x. But the mac only authenticates when the user is loged in. I have to say that even this does not work like it should. If Im loged in sometimes i need to click on "Connect" under networksettings and sometimes it connects just automatically. Thats really strange.
    I set the eapolclient to debugging mode and see following in /var/log/system.log when I logout.
    Feb 20 18:39:09 MacBook-Pro.local eapolclient[734]: [eaptls_plugin.c:189] eaptls_start(): failed to find client cert/identity, paramErr (-50)
    Feb 20 18:39:09 MacBook-Pro.local eapolclient[734]: en0 EAP-TLS: authentication failed with status 1001

    Feb 20 18:39:22 MacBook-Pro.local eapolclient[734]: en0 EAP-TLS: authentication failed with status 1001
    this are only debugging messages I get. Looks to me like eapolclient is not able to find a certificate (?)
    The certificates are in my System keychain.
    Unfortunatelly apple also changed the loging behaviour of eapolclient, I dont see any eapolclient.*.log under /var/log
    Any ideas ?

  • ISE 802.1x EAP-TLS machine and smart card authentication

    I suspect I know the answer to this, but thought that I would throw it out there anway...
    With Cisco ISE 1.2 is it possible to enable 802.1x machine AND user smart card  authentication simultaneously for wired/wireless clients (specifically  Windows 7/8, but Linux or OSX would also be good).  I can find plenty of  information regarding 802.1x machine authentication (EAP-TLS) and user  password authentication (PEAP), but none about dual EAP-TLS  authentication using certificates for machines and users at the same time.  I think I can figure out how to configure such a policy in ISE, but options seem to be lacking on the client end.  For example, the Windows 7 supplicant seems only able to present either a machine or user smart card certificate, not one then the other.  Plus, I am not sure how the client would know which certificate to present, or if the type can be specified from the authenticator.

    Hope this video link will help you

  • ACS 5.3, EAP-TLS Machine Authentication with Active Directory

    I have ACS 5.3. I am testing EAP-TLS Machine Authentication using Active Directory as an external Identity Store. II was testing and everything was going fine until I did some failure testing.
    My problem: I deleted my computer account out of Active Directory and tried to authenticate my wireless laptop and it still worked when it should have failed.
    Here is some of the output of the ACS log. You can see that the computer could not be found in AD and this was returned to the ACS. However, ACS still went ahead and authenticated the computer successfully.
    Evaluating Identity Policy
    15006 Matched Default Rule
    22037 Authentication Passed

    22064 New accounting session created in Session cache
    11002 Returned RADIUS Access-Accept
    I was assuming that if the computer was not found, the Identity Policy would fail, so I did not configure any authorization policy. Do I need an authorization policy to tell the ACS to fail the authentication if the machine cannot be found in AD? If I need an authorization policy, how do I configure it?
    Note: In my Identity Store Sequence, I did enable the option:
    For Attribute Retrieval only:
    If internal user/host not found or disabled then exit sequence and treat as "User Not Found"
    but this only seems to work for internal identity stores (at least based on my testing)
    Under my Access Policy Identity tab, I configured the following Advanced features:
    Advanced Options
    If authentication failed
    RejectDropContinue
    If user not found
    RejectDropContinue
    If process failed
    RejectDropContinue
    And that didn't do anything either.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Can try the following. Define an attribute to be retrieved from Active Directory and that exists for all objects. When defining the attribute it can be given a default value. Assign a default value which is a value that will never be returned for a real machine entry (eg "DEFAULTVALUE") and give it a "Policy Condition Name"
    Then can make a rule in the authorization policy such as
    If "Policy Condition Name" equals "DEFAULTVALUE" then "DenyAccess"

  • EAP-TLS machine authentication problems

    Well..
    I have the following devices:
    WCS
    Wlan controller 4402
    AP 1130 LWAPP
    Workstation XP sp2
    Secure ACS 4.0
    Windows CA
    Windows AD
    Everything else is working properly, except EAP-TLS. Server certificate is installed in ACS and trust list is OK. Client certificate is installed in workstation machine store. PEAP-MsCHAPv2 working OK, ACS logging prompts successful authentication. I tried to use the certificate authentication from windows wlan properties, but the log was still empty.
    Which clarifications do I have to do in ACS and AD?
    Can someone help me and give me very detailed instructions on how to make it work.

    Hi,
    We had a same problem until we ran 2 windows hotfixs. Those are: WindowsXP-KB893357-v2-x86-ENU.exe and WindowsXP-KB890046-x86-ENU.exe Have you tried to do this. Our EAP-TLS machine authentication is working fine now.
    Have you enabled EAP-TLS authentication in ACS? ACS-> System configuration: Mark Allow EAP-TLS

  • EAP-TLS & Unknown User Policy

    I setting up an WLC with the client using EAP-TLS (machine authentication only). We are using ACS 3.2 which is part of AD. The problem is that the ACS is being used to authorize users for Internet Access also.
    So if I enable the Unknown User Policy to AD for EAP-TLS machine authentication, this will break what is being done for Internet Access.
    Any ideas that don't include entering every machine and user name in the local database? I was wondering if I could setup a wildcard user of host/* that points to AD.
    Is there a way to make this work without configuring the Unknown user policy to point to AD?
    Thank you!

    Log onto the ACS server itself as the local administrator.
    Browse to the Bin directory in the ACS program directory.
    Run the program there called CSSupport.
    Select "Run Wizard" and click Next.
    Check all the boxes and create the file for last 3 days and clickNext.
    Again click Next.
    Select "Set Diagnostic Log Verbosity to Maximum." and click Next.
    Click Next, then click Finish.
    In an environment where there is more than one global catalog server for the domain, ACS will not search for the secondary" catalog server if the "primary" goes down.
    Condition: ACS is installed on a domain member server.
    Workaround: Re-start csauth.exe.Let me know if restarting CSAuth makes any difference

  • Cisco ISE - eap-peap and eap-tls

    Hi,
    Does anybody have an example of an ISE authentication policy where authentication requests coming from a WLC can be handled by TLS and PEAP?
    I dont seem to get that working, I do however make the ISE application crash with my config which is not the idea.
    If peap use this identity source, if tls use 'this certificate authentication profile'.
    Thx

    OK,
    so I have just fired up my lab and I actually created an Identity Sequence which contained my AD & my certificate profile.
    The authentication policy was allowing EAP-TLS & EAP-PEAP.
    I then created 2 authorization rules, 1 for users and 1 for machines permitting access based on windows AD group.
    What i found out was that the Windows 802.1x supplicant can only support 1 method of authentication, so if you want this to work properly, you need a different supplicant. I think Cisco do a more advanced one, not sure. You can then specifically choose that for machine auth you use EAP-TLS and for User Auth you use EAP-PEAP.
    In my setup. Machine auth ONLY happens when the user logs off the machine and it is sitting at Ctrl+alt+del so that it can still talk to the network and get all relevant updates etc. I found that not only did the machine authenticate using EAP-PEAP, it also authenticated using TLS... I think that is because of the wireless settings I had. I chose EAP-PEAP for wireless settings
    When the user then logs in, the user account authenticates using EAP-PEAP. I dont think you can authenticate both the logged on user and the machine at the same time. Not with the native windows supplicant anyway. Windows either sends authentication request for the user or the machine but not both.
    Hope that helps.

  • EAP-TLS Machine Authentication/Certificate

    Hi,
    I'm having problems getting EAP-TLS to work when a client machine needs to connect to a WLAN.  I can make each user get a user cert from my CA and if I use an admin account I can get windows to put these certs into the machine store, but when it comes to a login attempt my RADIUS failure messages look like host/axelfoley001 instead of host/MACHINE001xp, which is how the login looks on RADIUS when using EAP/PEAP.
    Clients are WinXPSP3, and I'm using CiscoACS 4.1, MS Certificate Services CA.
    When a user gets its own cert it can log into the WLAN fine after already logging onto the machine, but i can't seem to figure out how to pass the machine name with the cert on machine login (pre-auth).
    Do I need to alter some setting in the cert to pass a different user/machine name or do i need to get a different kind of cert from the CA?
    Any help will be greatfully received.
    Thanks,

    It sounds like your supplicant isn't configured to use machine credentials. In WZC there is a checkbox for "user machine credentials if available".... Perhaps that isn't enabled?
    Or perhaps you don't have a machine cert on the computer.  You mentioned a "user cert", but I think if you want machine credentials, don't you need a certificate for the machine itself? I could be wrong on this though.

  • ISE - EAP-TLS and then webAuth?

    Hello everyone!
    I have a little bit of a complex dilemma in an ISE deployment and I am trying to lean more on how it works technically. Long story short: I am trying to do both machine and user authentication / authorization (per requirements from our Security department) on a wireless network using iDevices (iPads, iPhones, iTouches) that are shared between users. Just an FYI, I know Apple devices are not intended for “multiple users”; hence, why it is a problem I am trying to solve with CWA.
    Hardware:
    Cisco ISE VM running 1.1.3.124
    WLC 5508 running 7.4.100.0
    AP 3602I running 7.4.100.0 / IOS 15.2(2)JB$
    iPod Touch version 6.1.3(10B329)
    Senario:
    •- User Authenticates to SSID that is 802.1x WPA2 AES,
    •- Machine is checked by having valid Cert issued by CA and given access to ISE CWA
    •- User open’s their browser
    •- WLC redirects them to ISE CWA
    •- User provides credentials on the portal
    •- User to CoA’d to full access network
    Rules, NSP is a limited profiling access network. CWA is a limited access network with redirect to centeral web auth on ISE. Standard rule 2 & 3 (which are disabled in this screen shot) are the rules that prove the CWA works on an open SSID.
    I have gotten the CWA to work great on an open SSID, however when the process involves EAP-TLS everything works but the redirect. The iPod is properly authorized to the CWA (which is the redirect permission), but when I open a browser the iPod just spins searching for the website; it is never redirected to the ISE. My question is, is this even possible? Is there a trick or order of sequence that needs to be changed? I have been told from a Cisco NCE that specializes in ISE that this “may” or “may not” work, but not given an explanation as to why or why not. And if it’s not possible, why not?
    Thank you in advance!
    Example, now the user is authorized for CWA, but when a user opens the browser it just sits there spinning.
    I checked the WLC “Clients>Details” (from the monitoring page) and I noticed something interesting:

  • EAP-TLS new user login

    Hi!
    I´m having a logical misunderstanding about NPS, EAP-TLS and certificates. Maybe you can help me out with this.
    In my environment I have AD, NPS, CA and network devices. I´m using successfully Wifi EAP-TLS policy and my Ethernet policies are working aswell. I have two policies for ethernet and for wifi:
    1. Computer policy: Conditions are Client Friendly Name (Switches), NAS Port Type (Ethernet), Domain Computer Group
    2. User policy: Conditions are Client Friendly Name (Switches), NAS Port Type (Ethernet), Domain Users Group
    When I turn on computer it get acces to network (if I have certificate and machine is domain computer). When I log in with user who has a certificate and who is domain user - everything still works. So policies are working! If user don´t have certificate
    then connection is disconnected.
    Problem is that when I have a new user logging to the machine then it don´t have certificate. And authentication will fail! Is there a way to allow user to request certificate and then try to authenticate? GPO policy is "enroll automatically" turned
    on but it will not work cause user log in is using TEMP account and certificate is not enrolled! So new users can´t access to network to download profile if I don´t put the certificate there by myself. 
    Second question is about PXE an computer certificate. Is there a way to use SCCM/PXE for OSD?
    Any help would be appriciated!

  • Cisco WLC EAP-TLS configuration

    I need help. I'm trying to configure virtual WLC for EAP-TLS authentication. I configured that, but I don't know where I can set CRL (certificate revocation list) or OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol). I must to use this technolodgy for deny access for laid-off employees.

    CRL and OCSP are both part of the certificate itself. Your CA must add the URL for these services when the cert is generated. The WLC does not get configured with the URL for these services. The WLC simply knows the Radius Server IP(s) and has the root cert installed so it can handle the TLS authentication.

  • EAP-TLS machine and user cert or both

    If I use machine and user certificates does that mean the machine get's an IP address, authenticates, the user then logs on which causes another DHCP renew and user authentication?  Is it better to use machine and user or just machine?

    It depends on your needs and applications, the advantage of also using machine authentication is that the machine connects, authenticates and is on the wireless network irrelevant of whether a user has logged in, which means you can remote access or monitor the machine at that point. I know alot of facilities that do it that way because they manage the machines with things like SMS, etc..   Without machine authentication the computer won't attach to the wireless until a user physically logs into the machine at which point it pass authentication.
    personally I like the machine authentication that way you can push updates and other things to the machines without having to either send a person to the machine to login or waiting for a user to login so that you can access the machine, it just needs to be on.
    in short machine authentication replicates being hardwired to the network.
    Hope this helps...  please rate useful posts.

  • ISE - EAP-TLS authentication with multi-tier PKI

    Hi Cisco Support Community,
    and again I'm struggling with my ISE understanding. It's kind of frustrating - daily more and more questions arise :)
    Here's the thing and I hope some of the ISE experts here know the answer:
    I want to authenticate my wired and wireless clients using 802.1X. I'm using a multi-tier PKI (see picture below)
    The ISE uses a certificate from the "Signing CA1" (Chain: Root CA - Signing CA1).
    The clients uses a certificate from the "Signing CA2" (Chain: Root CA - Intermediate CA1 - Signing CA2).
    Do I have to add the complete client certificate chain (Signing CA2, Intermediate CA1, Root CA) to the ISE trusted certificates in order to authenticate the client? Or is it enough for example just to add the root CA or the intermediate CA? I couldn't find any hints in the admin guide (1.3)
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello Johannes-
    You will need to add the root and all/any intermediate certificates in the trusted certificate store of ISE. 
    Thank you for rating helpful posts!
