What you have described almost sounds like there could be some packet 
fragmentation going on between the radius server and the wireless switch. You 
could likely determine that with Wireshark. There is an attribute called 
framed-mtu that may help alleviate the issue if it is due to fragmentation. 
There is a Microsoft article recommending that be set to 1344 for IAS if you 
are still seeing this type of issue on the windows server.

Subject: [enterasys] C4110 + problems with PEAP/MSCHAPv2

Hi,

currently we are extending our Aruba based wireless controller based wireless 
lan with Enterasys C4110 controllers.
We setup everything:

users login in with user name (802.1x with MSCHAPv2/PEAP) Windows IAS with 
RADIUS server.

This runs great with Aruba. All policies are also used for the enterasys 
controllers. So what´s the problem with them:

- Within Windows XP/Vista/7, Ubuntu 10, after clicking the SSID I´m getting the 
popup to enter my credentials, i.e. username and password.

This is happily forwarded to the RADIUs which is saying (reading the logs), 
that everything is ok. But then the popup for entering the credentials 
reappears instead of giving me network access.

So, I enter the username/password again, RADIUS says ok, popup reappears,
 I enter the username/password again, RADIUS says ok, popup reappears,
 I enter the username/password again, RADIUS says ok, popup reappears,
 I enter the username/password again, RADIUS says ok, popup reappears,...

endless.

When I login into the C4110 and test the RADIUS server with the credentials, it 
says that they are accepted. But it doesn´t work with all the access points.
Firmware is latest, btw.

Perhaps someone knows where the problem is?
