    Hi guys!

    I have an issue with palo alto integration and Mac address authentication.

    when the client pass the first authentication (The MAC address is unknown) this information is sent to Palo Alto, so the user and ip are associated.


    When the client have access to network the second time use the MAC authentication in this case instead od "Username" the MAC Address is sent to Palto Alto appliance.

     

     

    Can you help me?

    thanks in advance
    Andrea

    If the folks from aruba are busy, then please stay tuned. I'm building it in my lab. I have done it for eap-peap but not for mac auth. Will update you here.

     

    Thanks,

    Andrea - Please open a TAC case.

    Are you specifically asking if you can send the username instead of the MAC to the PAN when a MAC auth happens?

    Andrea,

     

    I got the basic guest working with PAN. CPPM sends the guest account info as such:

    if the guest username was guestname@company.com

    PAN receives it as company.con\guestname  which is good enough. This is if the guest logs in with webauth.

    For MAC auth though, I wasn't able to get it to work :(

     

    @DannyJump had a great tech note titled (PANW and CPPM Advanced Deployment use-case TechNote (V2-July 2014)

    If you follow pages 18 onward, your should get the basic workflow configured, to that point I will suggest calling TAC for help.

    The technote has some options for the session_check that I couldn't find in my CPPM 6.6 or 6.5.

    anyways let me know if you need help getting to that point. and let me know if TAC can help.

    HI,

    you have experienced exactly my issue.

    With web-auth all works, with mac auth there is something wrong.

     

    I have an open ticket with the TAC, i hope that they can help us.

     

    Regards

    hey danny, we're running 6.6 so the session notify policies weren't relevant. We were doing the RADIUS username update though and policy manager was showing the usernames. 

     

    Got it working now. The issue for us (which i worked out after reading the v6 PANW integration guide - thanks for writing such helpful docs by the way!) was that i had the radius accounting format wrong coming from our Cisco WLC and the accounting records weren't linking up with the auth records.

     

    Once i fixed this all started working fine. 

     

    Thanks

    Scott
