  • 1.  Access Captive Portal using Mozilla Firefox - OSCP

    Posted Dec 06, 2011 12:36 AM

    Unable access Aruba captive portal by using Mozilla firefox. I have add all of the OCSP host on the Policy (ACL) and apply the policy to the logon initial role, but it doesn't work.

     

    Below are the OCSP host list that i add in :

    91.199.212.174

    91.209.196.4

    208.116.56.4

    149.5.128.4

    91.209.196.5

    205.234.175.175

    91.209.196.169

    91.199.212.169

    149.5.128.169

    199.66.201.169

     

    If i disable the https for captive portal webpage the laptop was able the access the captive portal by using Mozilla firefox, but when i enable (https) it again the captive portal was not accessible on Mozilla firefox.

     

    Please advise.

    SSH into the controller that you are having the problem.

     

    Find the client ip and do a "show datapath session table <client's ip address>" to see what port 80 traffic is being denied.  This is my output here:

     

    (host) #show datapath session table 192.168.1.192

     As you can see, my client's port 80 traffic is being denied to 199.66.201.169.

     

    Do an "nslookup" on the commandline for that ip address to see if it is an ocsp or crl URL:

     

    Host:~ colinjoseph$ nslookup
    > server 8.8.8.8
    Default server: 8.8.8.8
    Address: 8.8.8.8#53
    > 199.66.201.169
    Server:		8.8.8.8
    Address:	8.8.8.8#53
    
    Non-authoritative answer:
    169.201.66.199.in-addr.arpa	name = ocsp.usertrust.com.
    

     Since it is an OCSP URL, I would add the 199.66.201.169 address to your netdestination, and that should fix it for now.

     

     

     

     If this is ArubaOS 6.x and above, I would add the name ocsp.usertrust.com to the netdestination you are using:

     

    netdestination usertrust
      name ocsp.usertrust.com

    Please make sure that ip domain-lookup is on and you have a dns server defined, if this is 6.x and you are using the named netdestination:

     

    config t
    ip domain lookup
    ip domain-name test.com
    ip name-server 8.8.8.8
    ip name-server 4.2.2.2

    If you are configuring the ip domain-lookup above, you can ignore the message that you need to reboot.

     

     Test to make sure your domain lookup is working by pinging a url (once again, ONLY if you are using ArubaOS 6.x and above):

     

    (3600 controller) # ping www.zdnet.com
    Press 'q' to abort.
    Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 216.239.116.55, timeout is 2 seconds:
    !!!!!
    Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 61.783/63.033/63.654 ms

    It's probably going to end up being the CRL address that needs to be added.

    Please open the browser initially to a non-secure (non-ssl) site for the captive portal.  It looks like you are opening the browser to a SSL yahoo site, and then the controller is redirecting you to a different one, so to the browser, it looks like an attack.  Open www.yahoo.com instead and see if that works.
