[enterasys] - NAC - 802.1x attempts by hostname rather than username get a reject

2013-07-02 Thread Read, Simon
Hi All, I've been monitoring the wired NAC roll-out to one of our departments. All going pretty well, but every now and again a PC will attempt to authenticate using it's hostname, rather than the username, and gets a Reject. The ICT guys have been disconnecting the PC to get it to

Hi, are you talking about the hostname from the hostname colomn in NAC Mgr or the hostname, i.e. host/pcname123 from the username colomn? If you do user authentication, i.e. 802.1X PEAP, or machine/host authentication, i.e. 802.1X EAP-TLS, both times the important username/hostname is found in

Hi Markus, Thanks for the feedback. When I see the Reject, the hostname appears in the username column. When the PC logs in successfully the username column is populated with the correct username. Does it look like a setting on our PC's that needs to change? Simon Read Service Engineer

Hi Simon, what is the authentication method for that host, which is shown in NAC Mgr - I think 802.1X EAP-TLS? Or does it say 802.1X Identity. Further right in the line of that host, does it say something about radius request became stale, system is miscconfigured or authentication request

Hi, Pawel is right, this should be checked as well, if you only want to use user authentication (802.1X PEAP, single sign on) and not machine/host authentication. Pawel described it right for Windows 7 machines for example, if you have Windows XP SP3 then you might want to check the 802.1X

Thanks Pawel and all that replied, I just worked that out after going over the setting with my PC colleagues. The setting was to use the computer or user credentials. They're going to push it as a Policy update and test. Certainly makes sense! Simon Read Service Engineer Nashua

How are the phones learning which vlan to operate on? DHCP? LLDP? Manual entry? We use DHCP to tell the phones which VLAN they should be on. It boots into our default VLAN and gets an IP address. It is told the proper VLAN, so it releases the IP address and talks on the new VLAN. It sounds like

Hi Matthias What is the VLAN mapping for pre-auth set to in the NAC profile? I had a similar issue where the Tunnel-Private-Group ID attribute is set to vlan 1 (default setting). NAC returns vlan 1 as Tunnel-Private-Group ID attribute if not specified differently. Might be worth checking.
