Clearpass Captive Portal does not work on 1 particular controller

    Posted Oct 03, 2017 11:39 AM

    I demoted a 7240 from master to local and now clearpass captive portal clients that terminate on this controller can't get internet access. The other 3 local controller works just fine.

     

    When opening a browser, even after self registration, the client is always redirected back to the same login/registration page.

     

    Here's the datapath session:

    NOTE: I relabeled the IPs so it is clear which one they are.

    Are you using the same captive portal certificate on every controller? (recommended)
    What do you have set for the network login address in the guest login configuration?

    Different for all 4 locals but there is a script on clearpass that should fix this. The x.x.2.50 is the the local controller that doesn't work.

     

    {if !$extra_fields.cn}
      {if $extra_fields.switchip == "x.x.2.50"}
        {assign var="hostname" value ="local-controller-aruba-wc1.csu.net"} 
      {elseif $extra_fields.switchip == "x.x.2.54"}
        {assign var="hostname" value ="local-controller-aruba-wc1.csu.net"}
      {elseif $extra_fields.switchip == "x.x.2.58"}
        {assign var="hostname" value ="local-controller-aruba-wc2.csu.net"}
       {elseif $extra_fields.switchip == "x.x.2.62"}
        {assign var="hostname" value ="local-controller-aruba-wc2.csu.net"}
      {else}
        {assign var="hostname" value =$extra_fields.switchip}
      {/if}

    1. Doing it that way is really not recommended
    2. What is the output of "show datapath fqdn" from that controller?

    Posted Oct 03, 2017 12:39 PM

    Thanks for the quick reply

     

    1) What's the best way?

    2) It shows the controllers hostname + csu*.net

    1) Use the same generic captive portal certificate on all of your controllers

    2) Does that match what is configured in ClearPass?



  • 7.  RE: Clearpass Captive Portal does not work on 1 particular controller

    Posted Oct 03, 2017 12:49 PM

    1) Would this show HTTPS errors? We try not to let clients see 'error' stuffs if possible.

    2) Yes, this is exactly what's on the script.

     

     

    thanks.

    1. No, it wouldn't
    2. Best to open a TAC case then

    UPDATE:

     

    The problem all this time is mismatched RADIUS key between the controller and clearpass.
