Using Windows 802.1x whith EAP-MD5 on Aironet 350 Adapter

Hello all,
I'm trying to use EAP-MD5 as the authentication mechanism with my Aironet Card and the Microsoft 802.1x stack under Win2K. Unfortunately, this choice is not possible while I can do it with legacy LAN cards. According to CCO litterature, it is supposed to be supported. Did anyone manage to have this working ?
Thanks in advance
Cyril

This is supported and it should work.

  • My internet provider use 802.1x profile with MD5 protocol.

    I want to make wireless net at home with Air port Extreme. With it I cannot connect to the internet. My provider use verification 802.1x with MD5 protocol. I was trying to make new profile with iPCU (iPhone Configuration Utility) but found that now MD5 is not supporting.
    How I can connect the Air port Extreme?

    Unfortunately but I did not found in the article how to configure profile.
    Before in Mac OS Snow Leopard or earlier it was possible to choose authentication type: TTLS, EAP, TLS, EAP-FAST, LEAP, MD5.
    At the present moment in the iPCU (iPhone configuration utility) it is possible to choose: TLS, TTLS, LEAP, PEAP, EAP-FAST, EAP-SIM.
    In the manual for iOS 5 it is written that in the new OS MD5 protocol is not supported.
    Does it mean that I cannot connect to the local provider?

  • Authentication with EAP-MD5/PEAP/FAST

    Version: ISE 1.2p12
    Hello,
    I have trouble authenticating devices that use different protocols:
    - Cisco IP Phones: EAP-MD5
    - Windows machines: EAP-PEAP
    - Cisco APs: EAP-FAST
    1) I'm able to authenticate the IP Phones individually with a authentication rule:
    IP PHONES If Wired_802.1X allowed protocols EAP-MD5
    For EAP-MD5 I selected only EAP-MD5
    Now if I use a generic rule
    DEVICES If Wired_802.1X allowed protocols EAP-PEAP-FAST-MD5
    with EAP-PEAP-FAST-MD5 having EAP-PEAP, EAP-FAST, EAP-MD5 selected, it doesn't work
    ISE says that there's a protocol mismatch:
    "Failure Reason: 12121 Client didn't provide suitable ciphers for anonymous PAC-provisioning"
    ISE is trying to authenticate my phone with EAP-FAST while the Cisco phone is useing EAP-MD5
    I read in another topic that some of you would consider MAB/Profiling for the APs and probably for the Cisco IP Phones. But I'm wondering if it's possible to have one authentication rule with allowed protocols EAP-PEAP-FAST-MD5
    2) Also, if I place the EAP-MD5 authentication rule higher and then have a rule for EAP-PEAP-FAST below it doesn't work because only the first rule is matched. I have configured the first rule with "If authentication fails = Continue"
    Does any of you have hints ?

    I know now the problem. WLC try to connect with "anonymous bind" to the ldap server. It works well with Win2000. With Win2003 it works only if you open the security. See link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320528/en
    You haven't the possiblity to configure any username/pwd for a secure ldap query. It's something that is an absolutely need for many customers.
    For the moment I will sugest the "workaround" with AP->WLC->Radius->LDAP
    Kind regards

  • ISE MAB Host Lookup - PAP or EAP-MD5

    In the docs, it says that MAB uses PAP/ASCII or EAP-MD5 to pass the MAC as username / password.
    In the attached setup, MAB is talking place successfully for an iPhone, without having PAP or EAP-MD5 enabled as Allowed Protocols. 
    Is the "Host Lookup" under allowed protocols, provides for the MAC address to be passed in PAP / EAP-MD5 even if these two protocols are not enabled below under the Authentication Protocols section of the configuration?
    How could we dictate to our switch to start using EAP-MD5 to pass the MAC?  If you look at the attached authentication details output, it lists in the AV Pair a EAP-Key.  Is that it?
    Thank you.
    Cath.

    Hello Cath-
    Question #1: Yes, I think you are correct. I believe that the "Host Lookup" is type of "protocol" used to process the MAB. If you look at the top of the authenticaiton session what do you under "Authentication Protocol?" My guess is that you see "Lookup" (see attached screen shot)
    Question #2: You can force the switch to use EAP-MD5 by appending "EAP" to the "MAB" command under the individual ports:
         interface fa0/1
         mab eap
    Things to conisider:
         1) If you make that change the default/built-in condition in ISE "Wired-MAB" will have to be changed since the
    service-type radius attribute will change from "Call Check" to "Framed." Thus, your MAB devices can easily skip the MAB authenticaiton rule and be denied on the network
         2) Because the MAC address is sent in the clear text  "Attribute 31" (Calling-Station-Id), MAB EAP does not offer any additional security by encrypting the MAC address in the password
         3) Because the service type for MAB EAP is the same as an IEEE 802.1X request, the RADIUS server will not be able to easily differentiate MAB EAP requests from IEEE 802.1X requests
    Here is a good document that you can reference as well:

  • Can't connect to Easy VPN Server using Windows 7 inbuilt VPN client

    Hi Everyone,
    I would like your help to resolve a vpn issue I am having with my Windows 7 inbuilt vpn client. I am trying to connect to an Easy vpn server on a Cisco 2951 ISR G2. Well, I can connect using Cisco vpn client v5.07 but I can't connect using Windows 7 inbuilt vpn client. Is there any configuration that I am missing so that I can connect using Windows 7 inbuilt vpn client to connect to the vpn server?
    Thank you.

    Hi MindaugasKa,
    Base on your description, your case must is the NPS client can’t pass the NPS policy.
    The NPS client can’t connect the network may have many reason, such as the Network Access Protection Agent service not started successful, the certificate not issued properly,
    please offer us information when your Windows 7 client denied, such as event id, original error information, screenshot.

  • NPS & EAP-MD5

    Hi there,
    We are currently working on the deployment of 802.1x enterprise-wide.  Since we have some old devices that don't support 802.1x natively, and have a Cisco infrastructure, we decided to go the MAC Authentication Bypass route.
    When we tested it prior, we were running Windows 2003 + IAS.  The test was flawless, however, it required us to enable Reversable Encryption and relax our password complexity requirements, which was unacceptable.  We then decided to upgrade to Windows 2008 to leverage the seperate password/complexity policy requirements based on a user or a group of users.
    I've just finished setting that up, and it works perfect.  We decided to go with NPS, as it had a bunch of features that were lacking from Windows 2003's IAS (namelly exporting the configuration and being able to import it to our other IAS/NPS servers).  We currently run the NPS service on our DC's (two of them for redundancy), however, we can't seem to make the MAC Authentication Bypass work.  After some digging, it seems that Microsoft has removed support for EAP-MD5 from Vista/2008.  They mention that there are third party EAPHost compliant vendors that 'may' have EAP-MD5 support, but I've been unable to find any.
    My question is, has anyone else ran into this problem?  If so, how did you go about fixing it.  Unfortunately, Cisco only seems to support EAP-MD5 for the MAC Authentication Bypass, we're currently running this on 3560 Catalyst switches.  I'd much rather get it working again on our NPS servers, as I don't want to revert back to IAS, as it's a pain to replicate the configurations between more than 1 box.
    Thanks!

  • ISE 1.2 and EAP-MD5

    Hi,
    I have HP procurve switches that need to get authenticated with EAP-MD5 but I cant get it to work in ISE 1.2 with patch 2.
    We have tried all combination for EAP-MD5 in allowed protocols but get the same message when trying to authenticate.
    The ISE deployemnt do not run in FIPS-140 2 mode.
    And when using the switch with NPS we get this to work, so switch configuration is ok.
    Failure Reason:  12003 Failed to negotiate EAP because EAP-MD5 not allowed in the Allowed Protocols
    Resolution: Ensure that the EAP-MD5 protocol is allowed by ISE in Allowed Protocols.
    Root cause :The client's supplicant sent an EAP-Response/NAK packet rejecting the previously-proposed EAP-based protocol, and requesting to use EAP-MD5 instead. However, EAP-MD5 is not allowed in Allowed Protocols.
    Any thoughts on this?
    Cheers

    Choose Policy > Policy Elements > Results >Authentication > Allowed Protocols
    Select EAP-MD5—Check the Allow EAP-MD5 check box and check Detect EAP-MD5 as Host Lookup check box.
    Save the Allowed Protocol service.

  • ASA5500 using Windows 7 computer as NTP server

    I have an ASA5510 connected to a computer running Windows 7 (the NTP Server) on its "inside" interface.
    Using the ASDM, I have configured the ASA5510 to use the Windows 7 as its NTP server (my architecture forces me to use a local machine as an NTP server):
         -IP address: 192.0.99.1 (the ASA5510 has an IP address of 192.0.99.40)
         -Interface: inside
         -Key number: None
         -Enable NTP authentication: no.
    I have other Windows computers on the "inside" interface using the NTP Server, so NTP traffic is relayed without any problem. But somehow, the ASA5510 is not able to synchronize with the NTP Server.
    I see the following log entry:
         -Source IP: 192.0.99.1
         -Source Port: 123
         -Destination IP: 192.0.99.40
         -Destination port: 65535
         -Description: Teardown UDP connection 3905 for inside: 192.0.99.1/123 to identity: 192.0.99.40/65535 duration 0:02:01 bytes 96
    so it seems like the ASA5510 sends a request to the NTP Server, but I am not sure whether the reply doesn't get processed correctly, or the connection stays open too long (my UDP connection timeout is the default, 2 minutes).
    I had trouble getting SonicWALL NSA2400s to use Windows 7 devices as NTP servers. I had to get a firmware version where there was no MD5 authentication (which I think is OK in this case), and change a setting in the Windows registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/services/W32Time/Config/AnnounceFlags: from 0xa to 0x5)
    any insight is welcome.

  • 802.1x and EAP

    Hi every body
    How is everybody doing?
    Does 802.1x require the usage of EAP ? or can we use 802.1x without using EAP?
    thanks and have a geat weekend.

    hi sarah,
    802.1x uses the EAP framework if you will. As you pointed out, it uses supplicant, authenticator, authentication server to authenticate, authorise a client.
    I don't think you can use 802.1x without EAP because you have to some framework to allow the client to authenticate etc.
    thats just my opinion

  • Problems unzipping files downloaded from Firefox using Windows built-in extractor tool

    Hi,
    I am running Firefox v26 on a Windows 7 (64-bit) PC. I work for a library that is able to reproduce digital audio books that we can download from the Library of Congress's National Library Service (NLS) for the Blind and Physically Handicapped. I use Firefox to download a lot of zipped audio books for my job. The file formats found in one book's zipped folder often include the following file types: .3gp (they're like a more compressed MP3 audio file), .mp3, .ncx, .opf, .pncx, .ppf, .smil, .md5, .dtd, .ent, and .ao.
    If I use Windows' built-in extraction tool to unzip an audio book I have downloaded via Firefox the extraction process ends prematurely and acts as if it was successful, but in reality some files are were never extracted. For example, I downloaded a zipped audio book that contained 21 files and weighed in at 87.6MB. The built-in Windows extraction tool only unzipped 2 files weighing in at 30.3MB.
    I have downloaded this same zipped audio book using Google's Chrome v31 and IE 11. Both downloads unzipped successfully using Windows' extractor. To make things even more bizarre, I *was* able to successfully unzip my audio book that I downloaded using Firefox using a 3rd party extraction tool called Extract Now. Because I tend to use this 3rd party program to extract my audio files I don't know at which version of Firefox this problem started. All I know if that this hasn't always been the case.
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    -Dan M.

    Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps with extracting files.

  • PEAP + EAP-MD5

    I've read that with the ACS 3.1 the only eap-type supported with PEAP is GTC.
    Why it is not possible to use EAP-MD5 or EAP-TLS with PEAP? These EAP-type were already supported in ACS 3.0...
    Thanks for your time.

    As per my knowledge,Peap uses TLS protocol also to authenticate.
    PEAP works in the following way:PEAP operates in two steps. The first step is the server authentication and second one is user authentication using a new EAP type .
    PEAP uses TLS to authenticate the network infrastructure through the TLS Handshake protocol, to protect user credentials in transit by means of the TLS Record Protocol, and to generate cryptographic keying material using the TLS-defined pseudo-random function (PRF) functionality.

  • Trouble with channels and clients using different 802.11 g/n adapters

    Hi,
    I have moved to a new home and I have a lot of problems with the wireless network
    I have configured the airport extreme to use the "802.11n draft" with backward compatibility to b ang g at 2,4 GHz.
    I had to manually select channel because the "Auto" option will probably use channel 6 and in this way all my clients are unable to connect.
    After many tests I have found that I cannot use channels from 4 to 9 because my macbook airport card will not detect the wireless network. Channel 1 seems to be the best choice but it is used by other people in the near homes also.
    With channel 1 my macbook is able to connect and mantain a stable connection, the signal is about 35%, unfortunally other clients (using windows XP, broadcom wireless adapter or a d-link DWA-140 USB key) are unable to have a good and stable connection: it is always "low", "very low" or not available
    Using the D-Link DWA-140 wireless config utility I have discovered today that channel 5 seems to be the better for such device: using channel 5 it is able to connect windows clients from everywhere with good or excellent signal BUT my macbook wireless results completely dead instead :-/, the same for broadcom client.
    D-link is unable to connect if I set channel 6 to 9 also.
    Macbook is unable to connect to 5GHz 802.11n pre-standard, D-Link is able instead.
    I have no cordless phones or running microwaves in the kitchen, the only thing I have is an home alarm using infrared and microwave sensors in each room. But they told me that they are using a frequency range much different from 2.4 GHz. Unfortunally I am unable to completely power off them and test some more.
    May be that near homes have cordless phones, wireless routers or video/audio repetitors, I don't know. I also have much iron in my walls. It is very strange that d-link can use very well channel 5 while other wireless cards/clients are unable to find any network there.
    I am going to become creazy... if I was able to explain the situation, could anybody help to investigate some more or try to solve?
    thanks a lot in advance!
    Fabio

    may be I have found the cause of all these troubles: the alarm motion sensors installed in each room.
    I have made a search in the Internet and I have found the technical details of my sensors: microwave tecnology used by them is exactly using the frequency of 2.45 GHz :-/
    So I have moved outsite of my hause the Airport Extreme and notebooks to confirm my suppose:
    all channels were perfectly working, "auto channel" selection was ok, macbook was able to connect at 5GHz 802.11n mode. Windows client was ok too with all wireless cards or USB devices.
    The alarm sensors seem to be always active and seems not possibile to have them completely off when the alarm is not activated.
    I think I am going to switch them to a different version that does not use 2.45 GHz microwaves.
    It seems the solution to my troubles.
    Hopes this helps somebody else.

    but no result :( (i mean all processes failed. They could not detect the drive).
    Please help me to get those data, pictures and project files.
    thank you
