    Posted 9 days ago

    Hello,

    we trying to configure the 802.1x activation on the HP Comware 7 switch with Clearpass 6.12.1 the Switch configuration is:

    Switch Comware 7:
    #
    port-security enable
    port-security mac-move permit
    dot1x authentication-method eap
    mac-authentication domain clearpass.radius.tacacs
    #
    radius scheme Clearpass.radius
    primary authentication xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx key simple xxxxxx
    primary accounting xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx key simple xxxxxx
    user-name-format without-domain
    accounting-on enable
    #
    domain clearpass.radius.tacacs
     authentication login hwtacacs-scheme tacacs local
     authorization login hwtacacs-scheme tacacs local
     accounting login hwtacacs-scheme tacacs local
     authorization command hwtacacs-scheme tacacs local
     accounting command hwtacacs-scheme tacacs
     authentication lan-access radius-scheme clearpass.radius local
     authorization lan-access radius-scheme clearpass.radius local
     accounting lan-access radius-scheme clearpass.radius local
    #
    domain default enable clearpass.radius.tacacs
    #
    Example for the interface:
    interface GigabitEthernet1/0/5
     port link-type hybrid
     port hybrid vlan 1 untagged
     mac-vlan enable
     stp edged-port
     stp tc-restriction
     lldp admin-status disable
     poe enable
     undo dot1x handshake
     undo dot1x multicast-trigger
     mac-authentication max-user 6
     mac-authentication host-mode multi-vlan
     port-security port-mode userlogin-secure-or-mac-ext

     we have some problems :

    1- Clearpass  can't Bounce Switch Port doesn't work with Comware 7 it gives an error:

    No response from network device

    2- MAC addresses appear on incorrect ports

    3- Clearpass doesn't receive  requests from the switch when I deb the log I see only this error:

    Dropped received EAP packet: The packet's Vlan isn't allowed in the port.

    do we miss something in the Comware 7 switch ???

    Thank you

    Hi, MohammadH

    This is my config for Commware.

    For interfaces:

     port link-type hybrid
     port hybrid vlan 1 untagged
     mac-vlan enable
     stp edged-port
     poe enable
     undo dot1x handshake
     dot1x max-user 4
     undo dot1x multicast-trigger
     dot1x after-mac-auth max-attempt 1
     mac-authentication max-user 4
     mac-authentication host-mode multi-vlan
     port-security max-mac-count 4
     port-security port-mode userlogin-secure-or-mac-ext
     dhcp snooping binding record

    Radius Scheme:

     primary authentication x.x.x.x
     primary accounting x.x.x.x
     accounting-on enable
     key authentication cipher xx
     key accounting cipher xx
     user-name-format without-domain
     nas-ip interface LoopBack0

    For Bounce Switch Port:

    radius dynamic-author server
    client ip x.x.x.x key simple xxxxxx
    quit

    General config:

    dhcp snooping enable

    dhcp snooping client-detect

     dot1x authentication-method eap
     dot1x quiet-period
     dot1x retry 3
     dot1x timer quiet-period 30
     dot1x timer handshake-period 30
     dot1x access-user log enable abnormal-logoff failed-login normal-logoff successful-login

    #
     mac-authentication domain xxxxx
     mac-authentication user-name-format mac-address with-hyphen uppercase   ###---> for MAC addresses appear on incorrect ports####
    #
     port-security enable
     port-security mac-move permit
     port-security access-user log enable failed-authorization mac-learning violation vlan-mac-limit
    #

    Also, vendor for Commware is: H3C

    Hello FF96,

    Thank you for sharing i will test it this week, I forgot to mention we have IP Phone to connect to PC

     I have a question about some commands:

    about DHCP snooping  I only need it if the DHCP is enabled in the switch correct?

    can you explain dot1x how works or for what you use it?

    • dot1x quiet-period
    • dot1x retry 3
    • dot1x timer quiet-period 30
    • dot1x timer handshake-period 30

    For interfaces do I need this command?

    • dot1x max-user 6 // What is the default ? 
    • dot1x after mac-auth max-attempt 1 // this after mac-auth success the switch will try  dot1x again correct ?
    • port-security max-mac-count 4  //When will we use it ??
    • dhcp snooping binding record //  what is do exactly ?

    Thank you

    Hi,

    All related explanations you can find in the user manual - https://networkingsupport.hpe.com/

    "For interfaces do I need this command?"

    Depends on how you set up your infrastructure

    Best Regards.
