  • 1.  User Roles

    Posted Jul 10, 2014 03:04 AM

    I'm trying to achieve dot1x authentication where radius server returns private-group-id which determines the role of the client. I wrote Server-Derivation Rule for that. But the issue is how will I configure it in ap configuration side? I created aaa profiles for each vlan.

    I want single ssid and single ap group. The vap profile of the ssid will include all the vlans. But how can I associate all of the user roles with one ssid profile in one ap group. Is this such a thing possible or neccesarry? Any help will be appreciated!

    Try to use the attribute FilterID instead.

     

    I think private-group-id attribute needs to be used in conjunction with a couple of others to work properly.

    Right now my friend who can configure radius is not avaible. After I created the post I monitored the traffic between controller and radius. The Radius-Access-Accept message contains user-name credential. I changed the attribute to user-name and the magic worked!  I see that private-group-id is not working properly. I will investigate how can I use it for future use:). And I will try the FilterID later.

     

    Is there maximum limit for server-derivation rules in numbers?

    The private-group-id is used for for vlan derivation.

    I don't know if there is a limit on the number of server rules you can have, but wouldn't want it to be too large.

    Try returning the Aruba specific VSA aruba-user-role and you don't even need to configure the server rules.

    When the controller receives the aruba-user-role attribute it automatically puts the user into that role.
