Aruba CX 6300F with Clearpass DUR Client shows unauthenticated

  • 1.  Aruba CX 6300F with Clearpass DUR Client shows unauthenticated

    Posted Feb 09, 2021 07:47 AM
    Hello communitiy,

    we have an Aruba CX 6300f switch and a Clearpass running.
    We have configured downloadable user roles on the switch and the Clearpass.

    after a successful authentication via 802.1x the client shows the status unauthenticated. However, it gets an IP and can access resources on the same network.
    The switch displays the status authenticatied.

    I think the error is in the acl that is downloaded on the switch.

    the ACL see picture.



    Many thanks

    Hi Leon,

    when you say the client says unauthenticated, do you mean that Windows shows that on the adapter setting? I would say that is a problem with Windows then, if everything else is working as expected.

    What does the switch say when you look into the user with "show port-access client detail"?

    Hi,

    yes windows shows unauthenticated on the network adapter...

    when I change the Acl Seq 100 alltraffic from drop to permit, everything works fine.


    the switch shows authenticated on both

    thanks

    That is strange. 
    I just tested it in my setup. I built an ACL with only DNS and DHCP allowed and everything else denied, just like you.

    Windows shows it is authenticated but the network is not identified, as expected, because I don't have a DHCP in my test environment.

    The switch looks the same like yours. Does every Windows client show unauthenticated?

    Hi,

    at the moment I´m working from home and I can only test with one Client with reomte connection.
    Next week I am back at office and I will test the authentication with an other client.
    Maybe you are right and this is only a client problem.

    Thanks

    Leon,

    I feel like you need to adjust your DHCP and DNS entries. Here is what I am using. DHCP will use a source port of 68 and dest port of 67 from the server. Same with DNS it is a destination port not a source port.

    class ip DHCP
    10 match udp any eq 68 any eq 67 count
    exit

    class ip DNS
    10 match udp any any eq 53 count
    exit


    With your other rules your not permitting any traffic.

    10 DHCP-DNS_TG_Aruba_CX_DUR_... ipv4 permit
    30 VLAN25_TG_Aruba_CX_DUR_Ve... ipv4 drop
    40 VLAN29_TG_Aruba_CX_DUR_Ve... ipv4 drop
    100 alltraffic_TG_Aruba_CX_DU... ipv4 drop


    Class Details:

    class ip DHCP-DNS_TG_Aruba_CX_DUR_Vertrieb_restricted-3083-3
    10 match udp any eq 67 any
    20 match udp any eq 68 any
    30 match udp any eq 53 any
    class ip VLAN25_TG_Aruba_CX_DUR_Vertrieb_restricted-3083-3
    10 match any any 192.168.25.0/255.255.255.0 count
    class ip VLAN29_TG_Aruba_CX_DUR_Vertrieb_restricted-3083-3
    10 match any any 192.168.29.0/255.255.255.0
    class ip alltraffic_TG_Aruba_CX_DUR_Vertrieb_restricted-3083-3
    20 match any any any

    You are welcome I noticed in the Wired Enforcement Policy Guide that there are some references to this that are incorrect. Ask me how I know? :) I typed them in and had weird issues. I sent a note to cappalli hopefully they can edit that.

    That is the document I am referencing that is wrong. For example on Page 179. The DHCP and DNS class match are incorrect.


    Same on 166
