Hi
MAC pairing is used to correlate the user's MAC address with the guest account, so you can use the same attributes for both web and mac authentication.
The controller automatically adds attributes to URL which redirect to ClearPass via HTTP GET. Example:
https://cppm.acme.local/guest/guest_register.php?cmd=login&mac=00:24:d7:ed:84:14&ip=10.15.104.13&essid=example-test-tunnel&apname=ap135&apgroup=example&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Egoogle%2Ecom%2F
In this URL you should see User MAC address, ESSID, ap-group and ap-name. This information you will have match to fields in form on the same name, so you can user AP-Name if you need. Unfortunately it is not possible to add ap-mac.

Hello,
Thanks, for responding, Piotras.
Are you referring to the "Host:" and or "Page:" fields under Roles & Policies/<role name>/Captive Portal/Captive Portal Options for the &mac=<mac-address> entry? I did find an entry to add the AP's Mac address under Authentication/l3 Authentication/Captive Portal Authentication/<captive portal name>.
Adding AP's MAC address in redirection URL:
TIA

Hi
In default configuration for External Captive Portal the controller add mac address which is sent to Clearpass. Check URL but you should have "&mac=<mac-address>".
You don't need to configure anything.
If you would like to add MAC Pairing you need only add "mac" and "mac_auth_pair" as hidden field to register page, because Clearpass must add MAC address to guest account attribute. You have everything in links which you send

Any instructions, videos, out there to show this?
We are strictly an Aruba shop. Is it possible for the Aruba products to pass the MAC in the redirect URL?
This is mainly for game consoles.
