Clearpass Web Login - Secure Login using HTTPS

  • 1.  Clearpass Web Login - Secure Login using HTTPS

    Posted Sep 22, 2017 11:28 AM

    Hi,

     

    I have a Web Login within Clearpass Guest that works fine using 'Send cleartext passwords over HTTP'.

     

    I wish to use the 'Secure login using HTTPS' but I seem to be running into problems. Please see the below for what I have configured so far following advice from other posts on this board:

    When I login into the Web Login, the Access Tracker shows an ACCEPT from the Application but nothing else after that:

    And the browser sits on the Web Login page as a blank screen.

     

    When I revert everything back to HTTP I get an Application ACCEPT and a RADIUS ACCEPT:

    And then I am placed into the relevant Captive Portal role for Internet access.

     

    Can anyone give me a nudge in the right direction please? More than happy to provide more information if required.

     

    Cheers

    Shaun

    What error do you get when you use HTTPS?

    Get Outlook for iOS

    Hi Victor,

     

    Thanks for the reply,

     

    I'm unsure by what you mean. There are no errors in the Access Tracker and on the Web Login after authentication the browser says loading and then after 60 seconds displays a blank page with the URL of the Web Login.

     

    Where are you expecting to see an error so I can check for you.

     

    Cheers

    Shaun

    You don't need to set the delay to 60 seconds (5 seconds should be good)

    If you haven't yet make sure the default certificate install in your controllers is replaced with a third party certificate and that the controller is using that certificate for the captive portal authentication .

    If you already that you need to match the cert name in the weblogin page.

    If you are using a wildcard cert, on the ClearPass web login config you should use "captiveportal-login.domain.com" for the address field
