PEAP in Wireless Enterprise Network

I am trying to user PEAP on my AP's in the Enterprise. It works fine when used as WPA2. But when i use dot1x it gives me error 'auidentified server identity'. I am using ACS 3.3 & using self signed cert. on the ACS. The same cert. i have installed in one Wireless Client. but it gives me error all the time. The error in ACS failed attempt is 'EAP-TLS or PEAP authentication failed during SSL handshake'
Pl. help.

Its possible that certificate on client is not properly able to authenticate ACS server certificate.
Please check following :
Install the Root CA Certificate for the Client :
Complete these steps.
[1] From the client PC, browse to the CA -http://IP_of_CA_server/certsrv/.
[2] Select Retrieve a CA certificate and click Next.
[3] Select Base64 Encoding and Download CA certificate.
[4] Click Open and select Install Certificate.
[5] Click Next.
[6] Select Place all certificates in the following store and then click Browse.
[7] Check the Show physical stores box.
[8] Expand Trusted root certification authorities, select local computer, and click OK.
[9] Click Next, click Finish, and click OK for "The import was successful" box.
Set up the Client for PEAP:

  • Iphone 4s wireless issues on a .1X enterprise network

    Hi,
    I'm having a problem with my iphone 4s dropping connection with a .1X enterprise network.
    I can connect but after about 15 minutes the wireless will drop and i have to manually reconnect to it.
    I've turned off the 3g service as it would try and re-connect to that. The strange thing is whilst testing out this problem with
    an ipad 2 (OS 5.0.1) and a macbook pro (os10.7.2) the iphone 4s dropped its wireless connection but the other two devices stayed
    connected and all 3 devices were connected to the same AP.
    Has anyone else came across this problem?? If so was there a work around?
    The network is question is an Eduroam wireless connection with the following spec

    Hi!when I try turned of my wifi with fn+f12 it totaly dissapeared. I've tried to turn my wifi on again with the same buttons but with no sucess. I've searched for alternative ways to turn it on ex through hp wireless assistance and windows mobility center but niether can detect my wifi. Basically it's like I don't even have wifi on this laptop.No wifi icon and no warnings or signs of disfuntional hardware. I've tried downloading new drives from HP's support site but all the installation ive tried so far just closes whitout finishing and whitout warnings.  i've also tried HP's restore functions to try and install the drivers that way but with no sucess. And even trying to restore to a previous backup point with windows backup and restore proved useless. although the wired connection works fine. any help on this matter is greatly appricieted my system specswindows 7 64bit HP pavilion g7 Notebookg7-1032Product nr LQ145EA#UUW These are the only network adaptors listed in my device manager Realtek PCIe Family ControllerPCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8136&SUBSYS_166B103C&REV_05

  • Officejet 6000 wireless and WPA2-Enterprise network security

    I own an Officejet 6000 wireless printer. The manual says that it should be compatible with a wireless network with WPA2-Enterprise network security but when setting up the connection (I am using a macbook and am setting the printer up via usb connection) the newtork is listed but the security type is "unsupported." For whatever its worth it is listed 5 or 6 times but probably thats a different issue.
    I can still select the right network but it only asks for a security key, but my network security requires a log-in name and password.
    What can I do to get my printer connected to the network?

    I get the feeling that most of the people replying here don't know the difference between WPA2-Personal and WPA2-Enterprise.
    Personal has a passkey.
    Enterprise uses both a username and password, usually in conjunction with a Radius server (802.1X athentication).
    What we've had to do solve this problem is create a second SSID on the network that authenticates on WPA2-Personal. We use a really long password to secure the network, one that I will never be able to memorize in my lifetime.
    All we can hope for is that these enterprise-level vendors will, perhaps, gain a greater understanding of wireless authentication processes and the needs of actual enterprise customers who at least a percieved need for wireless printer capabilities. It used to be that customer was always right, though. Perhaps those days are gone...
    The other problem that probably ought to be addressed on consumer end is the fact that multicast tools that make AirPrint work (such as Bonjour), are being blocked from crossing between your wired and wireless networks, perhaps by the wireless controller or due to inefficient routing hierarchy or NAT/PAT issues. Solve this issue and you won't have a need for wireless printers.

  • Spontaneous disconnects from a WPA2 Enterprise network with iwlwifi

    The wireless network at my work uses WPA2-Enterprise with PEAP authentication and MSCHAPv2 inner authentication.  Given this, cacert.org.crt, and the username and password, I am sometimes able to connect.  However, I am often spontaneously disconnected.  Sometimes this happens seconds after I connect, sometimes, I stay connected for hours.  I use network manager to connect within gnome-shell.
    The following describes my wireless card.
    $ lspci | grep Net
    07:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6235 (rev 24)
    The NetworkManager log is not much help...

    I had the same problems with my Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6000 and the WPA2 Enterprise network at university. And now since my last update where the driver seemed to be updated when also netctl replaced netcfg I am completly unable to connect to the network. But with my WPA2-PSK network I don't have any problems and my Notebook connects instantly.
    I'm using wicd but also tried NetworkManager, netctl and also manually using wpa_supplicant but it was the same problem.
    Also shutting down hardware encrpyption and 11n like mentioned in  this topic:
    option iwlwifi swcrypto=1
    option iwlwifi 11n_disable=1
    I guess it must be a driver bug.

  • Remembering WPA Enterprise Network

    At my university, the wireless network is a WPA enterprise network. Each time I want to connect, I have to enter everything in manually. How do I get it to remember the network?

    Thank you both for your replies. I am trying iphitus ideia but am having trouble and the wiki doesn't have much info (not related to this issue at least).

    I don't think this information in the profile is enough, doesn't say which WPA protocol uses, nor the user (in the WPA Enterprise case) so I believe the problem might be related to that lack of info in the profile. The wiki didn't have an example for WPA enterprise though

  • Connecting WRT54G to Enterprise Network

    I want to connect my WRT54G to an Enterprise network and allow wireless users to access the internet, but not my intranet. Are there setting configurations in the 54g that will allow this?
    The WRT54G does not broadcast and is encrypted.
    The wireless users are able to connect, but they are able to access all enterprise resources. What I would like, would be for the router to hand out it's own IP addresses separate from my internal DHCP IP's given out by my server.

    No. You have to configure that on your routers/switches/firewall. Everything you plug into your existing LAN has access unless you restrict the access with the current LAN infrastructure, e.g. with managed switches or on your router.
    Even if you could tweak the WRT to filter traffic into your existing LAN (with 3rd party firmware) it would be a high security risk. The LAN side of those cheap routers has only weak security mechanism and the risk of someone hacking into the router must be considered.

    All possible if your LAN infrastructure supports it. But for that you have to post what it looks like and what devices you have.
    Sidenote: Disabling the broadcast won't really secure the network. Encryption only if it is WPA2 or WPA.

  • Wireless Guest Network using Cisco 4402 as an Anchor Controller

    Hello,
    We have recently redesigned our wireless guest network in accordance to Cisco's recommended deployment using the anchor controller in the DMZ. We have created two mobility groups (enterprise and anchor). The anchor controller and DMZ has two subnets (guest managment and guest clients). The guest management subnet is connected to the controller and firewall allowing the mobility groups and EOIP tunnels while the guest client network is also connected to the controller and firewall to push the client traffic directly out the firewall. The setup works well but the one part that I'm not happy with is the DHCP. Currently DHCP is being handled on the firewall because of issues we had with dhcp relay and the controllers internal dhcp service.
    Does anyone have any information on getting DHCP relay working or the internal dhcp service on the controllers when using as a anchor?
    This is basically the setup guide that we followed.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Mobility/emob41dg/ch10GuAc.html
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Make sure you have the IP helper address configured under the VLAN interface on the L3 and also make sure to disable DHCP proxy on both the WLC (Anchor and Foreign).
    This will help us as well..
    lemme know if this answered your question..
    Regards

  • Continuity Not Compatible with Enterprise Networks?

    I upgraded my MBP (15" Retina) to OS X Yosemite today in the hopes of gaining access to the continuity/handoff features. However, after checking all my settings on all my devices, I cannot manage to use the feature.
    On my MacBook
    -I have enabled Handoff in the General Settings
    -I have enabled Bluetooth
    -I am signed into my iCloud account
    -I am connected to the Wi-Fi network of my university (enterprise network)
    On my iPhone
    -I am currently running iOS 8.0.2 on an iPhone 6 Plus
    -I have enabled Handoff in the General Settings
    -I have signed in to my iCloud account
    -I have enabled Bluetooth and connected to the same Wi-Fi network
    Are the continuity features simply not compatible with enterprise networks? My university (like most) has campus-wide wireless service, so I do not have/need a router. Or do I need to wait until iOS 8.1 to use these features. Some help would be appreciated.

    Yes , I know that. Nevertheless, SeaMonkey was not certified with 10.2.0.5 but running without problems.
    The question is: Has anyone of you guys found a trick to get SeaMonkey running with Grid 11gR1 ?

  • Providing DRC solution for ATMs in the enterprise network

    Hi all,
    I am looking for ideas on how to provide a Disaster Recovery solution for thousands of ATMs (Automated Teller Machine) deployed in the bank enterprise network. The solution should consider
    the following facts:-
    1.- Having the ATMs switch the connection to the Server at DRC shouldn't be automatic. This situation might last for the next few years until DRC becomes mirror image of primary data center.
    2.- The ATM servers at the primary and disaster recovery center is single server equipped with high availability (Tandem). I mean to say, there is no SLBs invloved in the connection
    3.- The application running on the ATMs is calling the ATM Server by hardcoded IP address in the application. The bank is willing to visit the ATMs to change once and forever.
    I see source natting as the most appropriate solution, however your opanion and expertise are appreciated.
    Thanks
    Sami

    Sami,
    what kind of solution are you looking for ?
    Is the concern the connection from ATM to central location ?
    Or is it a concern about the server at the central location ?
    For connection issues, I don't see any other solution than providing multiple lines.
    If the concern is the single server, you could have a loadbalancer somewhere in your network.
    The loadbalancer can use probes to check the health of the server.
    If the primary fails, or is unreachable, you can automatically redirect the traffic to the standby.
    ATM machines will point to the virtual ip (you could reuse the current ip and assign a new one to the servers).
    Not sure where to place the loadbalancer without a better idea of the problem to solve and the network.
    Gilles.

  • Wireless and network printing transcript for Meet the Experts

    On March 16th, HP hosted its first online chat event on wireless and network printing. Below is a transcript of that session.
    I am in the process of planning the next chat event. I would love to hear what topics would interest you, what day of the week and time is best for you, and if you think an hour is too long.
    So, if you get a minute, please let me know.
    Here's the transcript:
    SiobhanF-HP: Welcome! Cameron, Craig, David, and Jim are ready to tackle your questions.
    SiobhanF-HP: Just to remind you if you want to ask a question, you must be a member of the HP Support Forums. If you want to join, go here https://passport2.hp.com/hppcf/createuser.do
    nc256: Do I need a wireless router to hook up my wireless printer?
    CameronL-HP: No, but most people will want to do it this way. You can use a feature called an ad hoc connection to avoid using a router, but it is only covered under an older standard that is slower and less secure. Also, without something to route traffic between the local network and the internet, you cannot get an internet connection. Using a wireless router makes setting up a wireless network easier, and it will generally make the network work better too.
    jest1: I've seen some hardware in stores for a "print server" hardware device that attaches to a network. Is this something that I need in order to run a printer over a network?
    CraigB--HP: Not if you have a printer that has a network connection built in. Many models of HP computers are ready to be connected directly to your wired or wireless network.
    katiepage: How can I print when I am using a VPN?
    DavidH-HP: VPN connections generally hide the rest of your home network to increase the security of the VPN connection. A printer on the network isn’t a security threat but the VPN doesn’t know that. It just hides everything just to be sure. That means that when a VPN is active you need some way to connect to the printer other than your home network. Bluetooth, USB, and even printing to a thumb drive and plugging that into the printer are all ways of getting your print job to the printer that don’t go through your home network.
    SiobhanF-HP: If you have specific product questions, the more information you give us the better we will be able to help you. Getting your exact model number; any error messages; a description of your wireless network including what kind of security you have, what wireless-devices are connected to your network, and your IP address will go a long way to helping us answer your question.
    MelissaP: Why would I want a wireless printer?
    CraigB--HP: The main advantage of a wireless printer is the ability to place the printer somewhere in your home or office even if this is not near your router or computer.
    Deltan: What is the maximum distance I can have between my router and my printer?
    CameronL-HP: It does depend on your environment. Without interference about 25 feet. Walls and floors and other objects can reduce this. The types of walls are important. For example, mirrors and outdoor walls will greatly reduce the indoor range.
     jest1: Is there a preferred wireless router type or brand for wireless printing compatibility? We are using a Linksys 802.11g router in my home.
     JimB-HP: In general, any wireless-router from a name brand manufacturer that has been Wi-Fi certified is compatible with our printers (look for the Wi-Fi logo). We use Linksys in our lab with great success.
     nc256: Are there any digital cameras that can send directly to an HP wireless printer for photo printing?
     DavidH-HP: Many printers support a feature called Pictbridge. If the camera and printer both supports this feature, the camera can be plugged directly into the printer to print photos. Or are you asking about printing over a network connection?
     KevinW: I keep hearing that you shouldn’t use default settings for a network. Why?
     CraigB--HP: There are three reasons not use default settings: First, wireless-routers do not have any wireless security enabled by default. Second, you will be using a common network name in which case you may connect accidentally to your neighbor’s network. Third, your wireless-router is accessible by inadvertent guests who may change the configuration of your wireless-router without your knowledge or use your internet connection without your permission.
    Bodie08: I have an HP Lan attached printer and Windows XP on my home network. Is there a known setting (Firewall/port/other) or patch to address the issue of hpqtra08.exe hanging on Windows XP Shutdown? A number of us in the forum have identified this issue. Thanks!
    DavidH-HP: This problem has been seen in the past but there were attempts to address it. Have you checked to see if there is a later release of software available on the web? (hp.com)
    ZhuLee3: How old is wireless printing technology? I noticed all the experts have around 20 years of experience with it, was there wireless 20 years ago?
    JimB-HP: Wireless printing first appeared with the introduction of the 802.11 standard in late 1990's. HP has been making wireless printers since 2003.
    lpeterson123: What makes wireless so flaky at times?
    CameronL-HP: There are lots of reasons. Wireless signals are affected by distance, walls, metal objects, and other wireless devices like cordless phones. However, most of the problems seem to be from how the network or how security software is configured, and these can also cause things to fail only occasionally or in certain situations. Having a good wireless connection between a PC and printer involves several hardware devices and lots of software made by different companies that all have to work together; if something is not quite right in any of these things then the whole solution looks flaky.
    Bowman16: I use a Mac, are there any features that would not work if I was to set it up for wireless use
    DavidH-HP: All the features will work on a Mac if you install the full HP software solution.
    jest1: Thanks for the answer on the router question. The next question, then, is to ask what would be a recommended consumer-grade wireless-enabled printer (or series) just so I can start my research.
    JimB-HP: Any of our Photosmart or Officejet wireless printers will work with Wi-Fi certified wireless-routers. Our price points really have more to do with how much printing you do. In general, our more expensive printers cost less per page than our less expensive models.
    Bodie08: Why would I choose "spooling" on my PC over "direct connect”?
    CraigB--HP: In general, spooling allows you to use your program sooner than printing directly.
    ZhuLee3: Jim: What is it like to be an "HP Printing Expert"? What kind of stuff do you get to work on, on a day to day basis?
    JimB-HP: I really like my job -- I've always been a radio enthusiast so working on 802.11 technology is really a dream job for me. I'm also fortunate to work with a great team here in Vancouver, WA. More importantly, I like designing equipment that people use in their everyday lives.
    TEACHER1: Recently I changed routers, now I am unable to print wirelessly, even though the SES and wireless network light are steady on my Deskjet 6980 printer. What is the solution? Thanks.
    DavidH-HP: The wireless light indicates that the radio is on but does not indicate that the printer is connected to the network. First check that the printer is connected to the network by printing a network configuration page from the printer.
    AgentRed: I get my internet with a Verizon wireless broadband card. Someone told me that wouldn't work with a wireless printer. Is that true?
    CameronL-HP: Our wireless printers use the 802.11 b, g or n standard which is not compatible with the wireless cellular standard. It would be like trying to connect to a wireless network using Bluetooth. They are different wireless technologies.
    DavidH-HP: Regarding the Verizon card, it is true that you cannot connect the printer over the Verizon connection, but as long as your laptop has Wife you can print to the printer over WiFi at the same time that the Verizon connection is active. This should not be a problem.
    jest1: Is there a "minimum" internet connection that is recommended for wireless printing? We live a bit far from the DSL CO so our connection is sometimes flaky. I would guess that incoming speed shouldn't affect my local wireless LAN but I want to ask it anyway
    CameronL-HP: There are 2 parts to your home network. 1 is your wireless router which manages your local network equipment, then your network connection to the world wide web which your DSL provider gives you. The connection speed of your local network is not affected by your internet connection speed.
    Bowman16: Are any HP printers 802.11n? I do not want to add an 802.11b,g to my network and cause it to slow down.
    JimB-HP: Currently, our printers comply with the 802.11g standard. We are investigation the emerging 802.11n standard.
    ZhuLee3: Will there be a transcript of all the questions and answers from this chat available for viewing after the session? I think I missed some questions at the start.
    SiobhanF-HP: The chat event begins when you joined. Sorry that you can't see what was said before you joined. I hope to have transcript posted tomorrow or on Wednesday at the latest.
    nc256: Where is the future of printers headed? Does HP have any interesting plans with printing technology? And what’s your opinion on whether or not color laser printing will ever approachthe photo realism of ink jet color?
    JimB-HP: The future of HP printing will be characterized by wireless connectivity to not only computers but to mobile internet devices. In fact, as mobile devices become smaller (think phone or netbooks), the need to print from your mobile device might become more relevant.
    jest1: Am I able to print from my iphone to a wireless printer?
    CraigB--HP: You can print photos from your iPhone to HP wireless printers and it works great in my experience. Go to http://www.hp.com/go/iprintphoto to get the details.
    TEACHER1: Thank you. I printed a page. It shows that wireless is disconnected.
    DavidH-HP: Then you just need to input the wireless settings from your new router into the printer. If your printer does not let you input the settings from the front panel, you can use the CD that came with the printer or downloaded from hp.com to configure the printer again ( look for the option to "add a device" ).
    ZhuLee3: Question about security... if I get a wireless printer, what’s to prevent other people within range of my printer, from adding it and printing documents? How is this configured on the actual printer?
    JimB-HP: The simplest way to secure your printer is to enable WPA-PSK security for your wireless network and to use a security pass-phrase that is at least 12 characters long. This configuration is very safe from intruders for the foreseeable future.
    CameronL-HP: It' is also a good idea to use a unique network name, also called an SSID.
    carolj: I have a photosmart C7180 and I have it hooked up to my laptop (windows vista) when the setup completed the printer was put in networking instead of printers and I cannot access it or move it out of there. What do you suggest?
    CraigB--HP: You might need to uninstall and reinstall. Before doing this, make sure your get the latest driver from the HP support at: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=1153754&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us This is also where you can get a copy of the instruction book.
    wizll: Hi, I haven't done much research in wireless printing, but I'm interested as I currently have my printer set up the old fashioned way where it's connected to a networked PC, but if the PC is off I can no longer print, which is obviously inconvenient. Do hp wireless printers have a web gui you can connect to once it's on the home network, or is it simply all done from the printer's interface. I've seen some old wired network printers that only use the printer's ui and that seems like a clunky use.
    DavidH-HP: Yes, the HP printers which have networking built-in have what we call an "embedded" web server which allow you to configure settings, check status, and have many other features; on some models you can even scan using the embedded web server.
    nc256: Jim: Will color laser printing ever reach ink jet quality for photos?
    JimB-HP: While never is a long time, inkjet printers will, for the near future, output higher quality photos.
    katiepage: If I'm at home, connected to my office network via VPN, can I access my office networked printers?
    CraigB--HP: Yes, when you are connected to the office VPN, you can print to your office printers. However, you will not be able to print to your home networked printers while you are connected to the VPN.
    jest1: If a friend comes over to my house with their laptop and needs to print something, are they able to do this just by authenticating with my wireless LAN (assuming I have a wireless printer set up)?
    CraigB--HP: In addition to authenticating to your network, you friend will also need to install the printer driver for your printer.
    jpszambelan: Is there a wireless USB device of some kind I can connect to my printer if there is no network connection already built in?
    JimB-HP: HP sells an accessory that adds Wi-Fi capability to your USB printer (see http://www.shopping.hp.com/product/printer/inkjet/wireless/4/accessories/Q6236A%2523A2L) Also, many higher-end wireless-routers allows USB printers to be connected to them to allow sharing of the printer from the network. Note that this solution often limits you to just printing and not scanning from the network.
    rockwoodchev: It seems that my computer can find my printer, but my printer can't find the computer, so that "Scan to computer" won't work. What do I need to do in order to fix that?
    DavidH-HP: This can be blocked by security software running on the PC (such as a personal firewall). Make sure that your firewall is configured to allow communication on your local network. You can also unblock specific ports, but the easiest way is often just to allow communication on the local home network. The specific setting varies from firewall to firewall.

    CameronL-HP: I haven't been involved in the past but expect to be more involved in the future.
    SiobhanF-HP: We only have time for one more question. If we did not get to your question, please post it on the Networking and Wireless board in the Printers and All-in-Ones forum. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board?board.id=Networking
    ZhuLee3: Thanks for setting this up!
    SiobhanF-HP: The transcript will be posted on http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board?board.id=Networking
    TEACHER1: Thank you all for conducting this session !!!!
    jest1: Is there an OS limitation to print wirelessly?
    JimB-HP: All the OS versions supported by the printer as supported wirelessly. In general, we are compatible with Macs, Windows and Linux.
    SiobhanF-HP: We are ending the chat event. Thank you for coming. We hope you found it worthwhile. I will be posting a transcript of the event in the Networking and Wireless board in the Printers and All-in-Ones forum.

    Contact the University's IT dept, they may be able to set something up on the network to allow the ATV to connect without the need for a user name/password.

  • Is it possible to have an HP and Canon wireless printer on the same wireless home network?

    I presently have a Canon MP560 printer on my wireless home network. I do not have this printer installed on my computer. I purchased an HP 3520e-All-In-One hoping I could have both on my home network.  My os is Windows 7 64bit. I tried to install the HP 3520e, and received the following error message - "Your printer failed to join the wireless network", and said the issue was that MAC address filtering may be enabled on my computer, which it is not.  It is disabled.  Question:  Is there a workaround to have two wireless printers on the same network, and if so, what is it?  Thank you so much for your help.

    Hi,
    I actually have 3 printers from 3 vendors on my home network. I have tested using MAC filter and w/o MAC filter, no problem at all. The MAC filter should be on the router, not from your computer. Have you checked that ? My suggestion: use a computer on the network to connect the printer using USB cable then setup from there. The printer will use EXISTING setup from your computer and you won't need to enter security key.
    Regards.
    BH

  • VRF Lite running in the enterprise network

    Hello everybody
    Altough VRF lite (or Mulit VRF) seems to be a Service Provider Tecnology.
    Does it make sense to use it in an Enterprise Network to isolate Networks from others ?
    I cant find any design paper which describes if this would make sense.
    What do you think. Is someone using it ? Does Cisco recommend it ?

    Yes, VRF-lite SHOULD be used in an Enterprise environment to isolate the different security classes of devices.
    In the past you would isolate different groups of users using Layer1, i.e. separate hubs either totally isolated or connected together by a router with ACLs. Since the PCs were only connected at shared 10 Mbit and the routers were such low performance and worms weren't really prevalent, this was not a big security issue at the time.
    Then we migrated to VLANs, which essentially allowed Layer2 isolation within the same switch to provide the same functionality of separating different classes of users and to break up broadcast domains. Unfortunately, everyone connected the VLANs together at Layer3 with a router (or SVI) which essentially connected everything together again! And almost no one gets the ACLs right (if at all) to isolate the VLANs from each other. In fact, in most cases every VLAN can automatically reach every other VLAN from a Layer3 or IP perspective. This is a huge security problem.
    Enter VRF-lite, essentially created by Cisco as their tag switching migrated to standards based MPLS and had a need to isolate Layer3 security domains from each other within the same switch (or router). Think of VLANs for routing tables. VRF stands for 'Virtual Route Forwarding', which basically means separate routing tables. Since VRF-lite is a per-switch feature (running locally to the switch) you will need to use other technologies to connect multiple VRF-lite switches together and keep the traffic isolated, see below.
    What makes this so secure is that there is no command within the switch to connect different VRFs together within the same switch. You would need to connect a cable between two ports on the same switch configured in different VRFs to be able to communicate between them (recent IOS 12.2SR allows tunnels with different source VRFs but that is a corner case). The reason for this is simple, remember the basis for VRF (and VRF-lite) is for a service provider to isolate multiple customers from each other within the same switch. Just like an ATM, Frame-Relay, SONET, or Optical switch, the command line makes it very difficult (or impossible) to accidentally connect 2 different customers together.
    Think about that. Even if someone was able to get ssh enable access to your switch (you aren't running telnet anymore, right?!), they CAN'T connect 2 VRFs together with any command.
    And, yes, this is highly recommended by Cisco Engineers and is actually deployed far more than you think. I have VRF-lite running on at least 10 client's networks and those are LARGE networks. VRF-lite was integrated into the environment purely to solve a Layer3 security class isolation issue. I have used Layer3 dot1q trunks on c6500 switches and tunnels to keep isolated connectivity between VRFs between switches.
    In Cisco speak, VRF-lite falls under the topic of 'Path Isolation' which is combined with other features that isolate traffic within the same network such as dot1q trunking, tunneling, VPN, policy-routing, and MPLS. Do a search on Cisco's web site for 'path isolation' and you will find a bunch of info.
