    CPPM-2920(config)# radius-server host 10.2.100.161 key my_shared_secret
    CPPM-2920(config)# radius-server host 10.2.100.161 dyn-authorization

    1.  Download the latest firmware here:  https://h10145.www1.hp.com/downloads/SoftwareReleases.aspx?ProductNumber=J9729A

     

    2.  Setup your radius server:

    radius-server host 192.168.1.17 key "aruba123"
    radius-server host 192.168.1.17 dyn-authorization
    

    3.  Setup mac based and 802.1x-based authentication on ports 9 to 12:

    aaa authentication port-access eap-radius server-group "cppm"
    aaa authentication mac-based chap-radius server-group "cppm"
    aaa port-access authenticator 9-12
    aaa port-access authenticator 9 client-limit 1
    aaa port-access authenticator 10 client-limit 1
    aaa port-access authenticator 11 client-limit 1
    aaa port-access authenticator 12 client-limit 1
    aaa port-access authenticator active
    aaa port-access mac-based 9-12
    aaa port-access mac-based 9 client-limit 10
    aaa port-access mac-based 10 client-limit 10
    aaa port-access mac-based 11 client-limit 10
    aaa port-access mac-based 12 client-limit 10
    

    That should be it.

     

    Big shout out to the NE Engineer who's tutorial I used for this configuration verbatim.

    Hello Joseph

     

    I have tested the Configurations and it worked but there is a big issue showedd up:

     

    now I want user to authenticate when he enter his windwos log in credential he will have access now the thing is if domain user is not cached the user enter his credentail and he will not be able to log into domain and Message said domain service is not availble and user can not log into domain so how to solve such a thing.

    You need to configure the client for machine authentication and add a machine authentication rule to your enforcement policy.


    Thanks,

    TIPS role equals [Machine Authenticated]

    [Allow Access Profile]


    Thanks,

    But this role will allow any machine authentication directly for example I have printers should be in Printers VLAN and IP phones in Voice VLAN which I have created enforcment profiles for it and enforcment policy for so If I added this enforcment condition will allow access,so Please correct me if I'm wrong and really thank you for your fast response

    So you would just add whichever enforcement profile you want for that condition.

    I'm not sure what you're asking.


    Thanks,

    the thing is domain user for example windwos 8 can not login to domain on configured 802.1x port (and on this windwos we enable 802,.1x and configured it that widnwos log in uses as the 802.1x ) in 802.1x setting in windows,

    That's why you need to enable machine authentication on the client.


    Thanks,

    The thing is now if I enabled Machine Authentciation on Client and allow access to the network so any one can then log to my network so what is the purpose of 802.1x then and the NAC as a whole?

    The device will only machine authenticate at the login screen then it will switch to user which requires valid user credentials...
