How to push MAC list for WPA-PSK + MAC Auth

  • 1.  How to push MAC list for WPA-PSK + MAC Auth

    Posted Mar 25, 2019 07:12 AM

    Dear Arubers,

     

    I want to deploy some Instant clusters on different sites, managed by an Airwave server.

    I want a WPA2/PSK SSID with a pre-shared key consolidated by a MAC authentication. 

     

    These topics seem to validate this situation : 

    https://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Controllerless-Networks/How-to-setup-Mac-Authentication-on-IAP-93/td-p/164704

     

    Screenshot for WPA2-PSK on IAP

     

    My main constraint is to keep MAC authentication even if the site is isolated from network so a central Clearpass server isn’t a solution for me.

    Thus i think about local MAC authentication on Instant AP. I know that IAP can do MAC authentication alone but I have more than 4000 mac adresses to fill.

    So, my question is : Is it possible to push a MAC list from the Airwave server to Instant cluster ? Even for a big quantity of MAC adresses (by a Excel or a txt list ?) ?

     

    I have seen this topic : https://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Controllerless-Networks/MAC-Authentication-Automaic-Push/td-p/115779

    But I don’t know if it’s alway true in 2019. 

    If yes, is it possible to complete all the MAC list in one time or should be divided by instant clusters ?

     

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    I didn't found any details on datasheet about these options...
