02.1x authentication with username/password on Internal DB

  • 1.  02.1x authentication with username/password on Internal DB

    Posted Mar 08, 2014 02:39 AM

    Hi,

    I would like to do a 802.1X authentication with username/password on Internal DB.

    Following username, I would like to allow the right vlan, I have 4 vlans.

    I have already added the names and passwords of the users to be authenticated in Internal DB and I put different role following username. with different vlan.


    I already configure AAA profile with Server group (Internal) and I enable termination to finish authentication on controller.

    But I don't know how I can configure default-role and 802.1X Authentication Default Role.

     

    Thanks for your help

    The default 802.1x role is in the AAA profile.

    On Internal DB, I configure :

    aaa server-group "interne"
       allow-fail-through
     auth-server Internal
     set role condition User-Name contains "ccil" set-value ccil-vlan4   : in fact, I will configure all users on Internal DB with different vlans

    aaa profile "Entreprise_AAA"
       initial-role "Entreprise_role"
       authentication-dot1x "Entreprise_dot1x"
       dot1x-default-role "ccil-vlan4"
       dot1x-server-group "interne"


    aaa authentication dot1x "Entreprise_dot1x"
       machine-authentication enable
       machine-authentication machine-default-role "Entreprise_role"
       machine-authentication user-default-role "ccil-vlan4"
       termination enable


       termination eap-type eap-tls
       termination eap-type eap-peap
       termination inner-eap-type eap-gtc
       termination inner-eap-type eap-mschapv2

    Someone can explain me each role :

    initial-role "Entreprise_role"
    dot1x-default-role "ccil-vlan4"

    machine-authentication machine-default-role "Entreprise_role"
    machine-authentication user-default-role "ccil-vlan4"

     

    With different vlan, I cannot understand where I have to configure the server derivation and how.

    Two words of advice:

     

    1- Turn off (Enforce) Machine Authentication (machine authentication and Termination don't work.  You also are not going to put a machine's credentials into the internal database, so don't bother.  Enforce Machine Authentication is an advanced topic.)

    2- The commands that sets the 802.1x role  is below:

    aaa profile "Entreprise_AAA"
       initial-role "Entreprise_role"
       authentication-dot1x "Entreprise_dot1x"
       dot1x-default-role "ccil-vlan4"
       dot1x-server-group "interne"

     3 - 

    Someone can explain me each role :

    initial-role "Entreprise_role"   - Initial role for AAA profile.  Only valid for PSK or Open SSIDs.  NOTused for 802.1x
    dot1x-default-role "ccil-vlan4"  - Basic Role for when a client passes 802.1x

     

    (Enforce) Machine Authentication - Only in effect when Enforce Machine Authentication is activated.  Does not work with Termination, and is not used when Termination is off.

    machine-authentication machine-default-role "Entreprise_role"
    machine-authentication user-default-role "ccil-vlan4"

    Thanks for your help.

     

    I have a question about vlans. Do you think I can allow specifc vlans following username when I used the same SSID and the same authentication ?

    ccil,

     

    Do you want:

     

    If X user authenticates, let them go to VLAN Y?

    Hi,

     

    I have 80 users with 4 vlans :

    users1 => go to vlan 10

    users2 => go to vlan 20

    users3 => go to vlan 30

    ...

    with only 4 vlans not more

    ccil,

     

    Before I answer your question:

     

    - Is this to replace an existing system?

    - Are you using VLANs for security or access?  If so, what type?
