    Posted Feb 26, 2015 04:08 PM

    Hello ,

    I am new to Aruba. I was trying to setup clearpass for posture assessment of wired dot1x network connections. We use 3750 cisco switches and authentication is against AD servers. 

     

    Is there is a setup guide available i can find?

    Im trying to accomplish the following

    1. User connects the computer 

    2. onguard does the posture assessment, if passes

    3. Clear pass looks for his/her department and assigns the vlan

    4. If fails,shows the remediation or do auto remediation.

     

    I got the vlan assignment part working as that seems self explanatory.

     

    I understand that we have multiple options for doing the posture assessment 

    1. webpage

    2. install application 

    We would like to look at both 

     

    If someone can point me to a configuration guide or suggest me ideas i will be greatful.

     

    Thanks!

    Are you working with an Aruba partner? It can be a bit complex to explain on here. 


    Thanks,

    This is what i have done so far.

     

    we are using 802.1x to AD authentication on cisco 3750 switches.

     

    On Clearpass 

    Configuration -> service (new service) - 802.1x wired

    defaults in the service

    authentication to AD server

    we are not doing any roles

     

    Enforcement - new policy - I have created 2 conditions. 

    1. tips: rols equals {user authentication}

     and tips:posture equals healthy(0)

    Then assign employee vlan

    2. Tips:role Equals 

    {user authentication}

     and tips:posture NOT_Equals healthy(0)

    Then cisco-wired onguard redirect and temporary vlan

     

    For the cisco-wired onguard redirect profile i have set a url redirect to clearpass onguard

     

    ---Testing---

    Connected a windows 7 machine to the port - it does the authentication and fails rightaway. 

    however on the access tracker clearpass, i can see that login-status is ACCEPT 

    and summary says its using the right service that i have created and it falls under condition-2 

    on the output its sending the vlan attributes for temporary vlan and cisco-avpair url redirect. 

     

    As its not authenticating i cant get to the url. However in the profiles when i remove the radius attribute for url redirect and keep just the vlan  machine authenticates with my credentials and gives me the vlan i need but with out posture assessment. 

     

    One thing i have noticed is in access tracket - summary - I see below

     

    System Posture Status:
    UNKNOWN (100)

     

    I must be missing something. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is it machine authenticating of user?

    What does the alerts tab say?

    Yes, authentication using user credentials.

     

    In the access tracker i only see summary , input and output .. I dont see alerts tab
