OPEN SSID MAC AUTH CWP

    Hello,

     

    I'm working on a design with a OPEN SSID|Mac Auth + CWP.

     

    How can I push clients not yet in the data base to the CWP?

     

    Clearpass keeps punting them even if I toss in some default roles+policies.

     

    FYI clients in the mac database work fine obviously. I just want client who are not yet in the DB to be able to access the CWP.

     

    Error Code:
    216
    Error Category:
    Authentication failure
    Error Message:
    User authentication failed
     Alerts for this Request 
    RADIUS[Endpoints Repository] - localhost: User not found.
    MAC-AUTH: MAC Authentication attempted by unknown client, rejected.

     

    Thanks!

    You should be using Allow All MAC Auth and returning the captive portal role enforcement.

    Nice thanks for the quick reply Tim!

     

    It solved the problem however it broke my design :\ 

     

    Here's the super high level design.

     

    Open SSID for Self Device Reg.

    CWP->Domain Cred auth form->Automatically registers the Users device and marks it as "known". If the device logs in later on it's now cached and they don't have the CWP applied. 

     

    If I do Allow All Mac all users are now redirected to CWP whether they're in the db or not and fall into the registration role. :\

     

    I especially want this design for when open ssid encryption comes around.

    Not to get into the weeds with the design but I'm trying to avoid going into the whole clearpass self registration portal. Manual creation etc. I'm going for a quick device reg for byod with device tracking based on AD creds. I'm trying to make the students device registration super simple.

    With ONE SSID to do it all :D Works with a One registration SSID and a Mac auth SSID

    Did the trick..Just needed to prevent Apple's CWP. Policy was still being pushed out properly.
