Wlc and radius authenticationn

We have deployed Cisco Airspace AP with Wireless LAN Controllers (4400).
Currently we have the WLC authenticating using radius to ACS version 4.01 servers.
Unfortunately when the primary ACS get rebooted all the athentication requests go to the secondary server which in affect is fine but when the primary comes back up the authenticatons continue to go to the secondary server.
Is there no round-robin feature to enable on the WLC so that it detects that the primary is back up and continue to authenticate to that server ?

I have not seen a way yet except by using a CSS to front-end the ACS servers (mainly done for lad-balancing purposes actually). I am also curious if there is an option as I have been through most web pages many times. Maybe it's buried in the command line.

  • WLC and Radius that only speaks PAP.

    Hi, I have a costumer with a WLC 2500 controller and a guest-solution with a radius server that only supports PAP authentication to the radius client (WLC). How can I make the WLC talk PAP to the Radius server? It looks like the controller uses MS-CHAP2 as default.

  • WLC and Radius issue

    We keep get the following error. And everytime we got this, the clients have been force to re-authentication.
    Any idea?
    Thanks,

    Go to clients. Look up the client by mac address and look at the PEM state. It will tell you why the client is failing ..
    DHCP_REQ is meaning there is a DHCP issue
    8021x_REQ means it failed auth
    You could also turn off exclude as a test, perhaps these clients are a little slow to auth.

  • Cisco wlc and steel belted radius

    we have cisco wlc controller  that have  two ssid  one for user and one for guest
    we need the  user in ssid 1 take user name and password from  user group in active directory through steel belted radiu
    please send to me any integrated guide between cisco wlc and steel belted radius
    regards

    Hi                                                      Mohammad,
    I am unaware of a specific Steel Belted RADIUS intrgration guide for the WLCs, however the configuration process on the controller will be the same:
    Cisco WLC Configuration Guide 7.0 - Configuring RADIUS:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/7.0/configuration/guide/c70sol.html#wp1388328
    You may wish to contact your RADIUS vendor for additional configuration steps on the server.
    Best,

  • WLC + ACS (RADIUS) + MS-AD

    Hi!
    I have been looking around if there is a way to authenticate users against a MS-AD database from a non-controlled wireless client.
    My design includes a WLC 4400, an ACS 5.4 and MS-AD 2003.
    The goal is to connect a client without any special configuration (in the client); the SSID will be visible so I just want to join the network and after the negotiation, it should prompts me a username and password for the Microsoft Database.
    I have read there are limitations setting this up just with WLC and MS-AD, thats why I want to use Radius (ACS) so I can establish a trust communication between both the ACS and MS-AD. But so far, I just found documentation where they modify the native supplicant to validate a CA and force mschapv2.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Check out the doc below

    As you can see, the Acct-Authentic fields contains two possible values: Local and RADIUS. I didn't create any user with name 'xxxxxx' on AP, and I configure the authentication is against the RADIUS server. Why there are so many Acct-Authentic = 'Local'?
    Also, this user always lost his connection and then reconnected quickly. This user login his account in multiple devices, including smart phone and computers. All of them are experiencing the same issue. Is there anyway to debug it? Any protential reasons?

  • Problem share folder WLC and pc macbookpro

    I am doing a migration from my wireless network in the old network in the PC MacBookPro I can see shared files on the network. But when I connect to the SSID configured on the WLC and I can not see shared files on the network. I have no ACL configured on the SSID.

    Bonjour is a non-routabe multicast based service. A trick I use sometimes is to configure the WLAN to be in hreap mode if the ap is located locally to the target bonjour device.if your running in local mode, make sure they are on the same vlan and global multicast is enabled.

  • Cisco ISE with TACACS+ and RADIUS both?

    Hello,
    I am initiating wired authentication on an existing network using Cisco ISE. I have been studying the requirements for this. I know I have to turn on RADIUS on the Cisco switches on the network. The switches on the network are already programmed for TACACS+. Does anybody know if they can both operate on the same network at the same time?
    Bob

    Hello Robert,
    I believe NO, they both won't work together as both TACACS and Radius are different technologies.
    It's just because that TACACS encrypts the whole message and Radius just the password, so I believe it won't work.
    For your reference, I am sharing the link for the difference between TACACS and Radius.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk59/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094e99.shtml
    Moreover, Please review the information as well.
    Compare TACACS+ and RADIUS
    These sections compare several features of TACACS+ and RADIUS.
    UDP and TCP
    RADIUS uses UDP while TACACS+ uses TCP. TCP offers several advantages over UDP. TCP offers a connection-oriented transport, while UDP offers best-effort delivery. RADIUS requires additional programmable variables such as re-transmit attempts and time-outs to compensate for best-effort transport, but it lacks the level of built-in support that a
    TCP transport offers:
    TCP usage provides a separate acknowledgment that a request has been received, within (approximately) a network round-trip time (RTT), regardless of how loaded and slow the backend authentication mechanism (a TCP acknowledgment) might be.
    TCP provides immediate indication of a crashed, or not running, server by a reset (RST). You can determine when a server crashes and returns to service if you use long-lived TCP connections. UDP cannot tell the difference between a server that is down, a slow server, and a non-existent server.
    Using TCP keepalives, server crashes can be detected out-of-band with actual requests. Connections to multiple servers can be maintained simultaneously, and you only need to send messages to the ones that are known to be up and running.
    TCP is more scalable and adapts to growing, as well as congested, networks.
    Packet Encryption
    RADIUS encrypts only the password in the access-request packet, from the client to the server. The remainder of the packet is unencrypted. Other information, such as username, authorized services, and accounting, can be captured by a third party.
    TACACS+ encrypts the entire body of the packet but leaves a standard TACACS+ header. Within the header is a field that indicates whether the body is encrypted or not. For debugging purposes, it is useful to have the body of the packets unencrypted. However, during normal operation, the body of the packet is fully encrypted for more secure communications.
    Authentication and Authorization
    RADIUS combines authentication and authorization. The access-accept packets sent by the RADIUS server to the client contain authorization information. This makes it difficult to decouple authentication and authorization.
    TACACS+ uses the AAA architecture, which separates AAA. This allows separate authentication solutions that can still use TACACS+ for authorization and accounting. For example, with TACACS+, it is possible to use Kerberos authentication and TACACS+ authorization and accounting. After a NAS authenticates on a Kerberos server, it requests authorization information from a TACACS+ server without having to re-authenticate. The NAS informs the TACACS+ server that it has successfully authenticated on a Kerberos server, and the server then provides authorization information.
    During a session, if additional authorization checking is needed, the access server checks with a TACACS+ server to determine if the user is granted permission to use a particular command. This provides greater control over the commands that can be executed on the access server while decoupling from the authentication mechanism.
    Multiprotocol Support
    RADIUS does not support these protocols:
    AppleTalk Remote Access (ARA) protocol
    NetBIOS Frame Protocol Control protocol
    Novell Asynchronous Services Interface (NASI)
    X.25 PAD connection
    TACACS+ offers multiprotocol support.
    Router Management
    RADIUS does not allow users to control which commands can be executed on a router and which cannot. Therefore, RADIUS is not as useful for router management or as flexible for terminal services.
    TACACS+ provides two methods to control the authorization of router commands on a per-user or per-group basis. The first method is to assign privilege levels to commands and have the router verify with the TACACS+ server whether or not the user is authorized at the specified privilege level. The second method is to explicitly specify in the TACACS+ server, on a per-user or per-group basis, the commands that are allowed.
    Interoperability
    Due to various interpretations of the RADIUS Request for Comments (RFCs), compliance with the RADIUS RFCs does not guarantee interoperability. Even though several vendors implement RADIUS clients, this does not mean they are interoperable. Cisco implements most RADIUS attributes and consistently adds more. If customers use only the standard RADIUS attributes in their servers, they can interoperate between several vendors as long as these vendors implement the same attributes. However, many vendors implement extensions that are proprietary attributes. If a customer uses one of these vendor-specific extended attributes, interoperability is not possible.
    Traffic
    Due to the previously cited differences between TACACS+ and RADIUS, the amount of traffic generated between the client and server differs. These examples illustrate the traffic between the client and server for TACACS+ and RADIUS when used for router management with authentication, exec authorization, command authorization (which RADIUS cannot do), exec accounting, and command accounting (which RADIUS cannot do).

  • WLC 4402 RADIUS Authentication with IAS

    Hello
    I configured a WLAN with PEAP (CHAP v2)and Radius authentication to a Win 2003 IAS Radius Server.
    On the controller 4402 the layer 2 security is set to WPA1+WPA2 with 802.1x authentication.
    The IAS server don't use the configured policy when a authentication reguest arrive.
    I there an issue with special RADIUS attributes or configuration items on the IAS Server?
    The following event appear in the windows logs:
    User STANS\kaesmr was denied access.
    Fully-Qualified-User-Name = STANS\kaesmr
    NAS-IP-Address = 172.17.25.6
    NAS-Identifier = keynet-01
    Called-Station-Identifier = 00-18-74-FB-CA-20:keynet
    Calling-Station-Identifier = 00-16-CE-52-C8-EB
    Client-Friendly-Name = Wireless-Controller
    Client-IP-Address = 172.17.25.6
    NAS-Port-Type = Wireless - IEEE 802.11
    NAS-Port = 1
    Proxy-Policy-Name = Windows-Authentifizierung f?r alle Benutzer verwenden
    Authentication-Provider = Windows
    Authentication-Server = <undetermined>
    Policy-Name = <undetermined>
    Authentication-Type = Extension
    EAP-Type = <undetermined>
    Reason-Code = 21
    Reason = The request was rejected by a third-party extension DLL file.

    What I understand from your post is that the authentication is not handled by your IAS server. IF I am correct, the problem might be with the "Allow AA override" option disabled in your WLAN. If it is enabled, then the AAA server or your IAS server will override the security parameters set locally on the controller.
    So, first ensure whether "Allow AAA override" is enabled under Controller--->WLAN field.
    Also, chek out the logs of the IAS server for obtaining more info on this.

  • Cisco 8510 WLC and RTU licence

    Hi Guys,
    I have a simular issue where is shows the status as active, not-in-use.
    What does this mean and how do I get this to be in use.
    This is a Controller with HA-SKU license.
    The licenses has been inherited from the Primary Controller.
    Any license on HA-SKU controller is disregarded.
    Feature name: ap_count (adder)
    License type: Permanent
    License state: Active, Not-In-Use
    License Nodelocked: No
    RTU License Count: 50
    Hope to hear from you soon.
    Regards,
    Clifton.

    Hi,
    since this is a HA-SKU WLC, and the license is inherited from the active then no need to have a permenant license on it.
    is the HA working fine?
    please review the following link for the HA licensing requirements

  • WLC and WCS conflict

    Hi I am currently using 21 X WLC with N+1 Redundancy and 1X WCS with 1000++ of LAP1020. If had been observed that the antenna type and power TX had been changed with no reason. Is there any settings that may affect with AP customized Tx Power and antenna settings other than using the WCS template to push the configure to the APs instead of the WLC.

    Sorry for jumping in on the question with another question but it seemed the right place.
    I have an AIR-CT5508-25-K9 WLC and +25AP license : L-LIC-CT5508-25A.
    As far as I understand it the WLC should already have a 25AP license installed and with the adder license I should have a count of 50 APs.
    However, after installing the adder license the count is still 25.
    Could you please let me know if it's just something wrong in my reasoning or should a case be opened?
    Thank you,
    Barbara

    I was trying to find some design reference for the Guest-WLC and NAC integration guide. Anyone can share some experience/cisco docs/links?

    User traffic is locally bridged on a 1030 in REAP mode so packet forwarded to the default gtw would follow the NAT rules on the firewall but the real challenge is the LWAPP control channel. In that past using 1:1 NAT I was successful with a CP firewall but I had to play tricks with the mobility group and use the FW logs to track and define the right ports.

  • WPA2 and Radius server configuration

    On the page: http://cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a008054339e.shtml
    is described how to setup a WPA2 and Radius server.
    If I follow this, the Radius server does not work. In the document they descibe that I need to use 10.0.0.1 as the IP, but my AP has a 192.168.1.251 address. Even if I enter that adres, or the 10.0.0.1, it does not work.
    Normal WPA2 personal, without Radius does work.
    I use a 1100 series AP, (AIR-AP1120B-E-K9) with a AIR-MP21G and the firmware of the radio module is 5.90.11.
    The IOS version is 12.3(8)JA2.
    Does anyone know what to do?
    Haik

    Hello,
    I understand that. I have given the AP a fixed address, 192.168.1.251. This is outside the DHCP pool, from the router.
    Even if I use this address in th Radius configuration, it still does not work. My client (laptop with Intel Pro Wireless 2200 card), detects that there is a Radius server, and asks for a username / password.
    But even if I fill it in correctly (copy / paste) it does not work.
    So what can be wrong with this configuration?
