Hi Mark,

I was also testing Aruba CX switches some month ago. I used PF12 and the “Aruba 
Networks” type in my test environment. So I’m not sure if this applies to you.
That’s what I did:


(config)# radius-server host [Radius IP] key [Radius PW]

(config)# radius dyn-authorization enable

(config)# aaa authentication allow-fail-through



## SNMPV1 / not using traps

(config)# snmp-server community [SNMP-Community]

(config-community)# access-level rw



## Mac-Auth

(config)# Interface [Ports/Port-Range]

(config-if) # aaa authentication port-access mac-auth

(config-if-macauth)# enable



(config)# aaa authentication port-access mac-auth enable



## 802.1x

(config)# Interface [Ports/Port-Range]

(config-if)# aaa authentication port-access dot1x authenticator

(config-if)# cached-reauth

(config-if)# cached-reauth-period 60

(config-if)# max-eapol-requests 1

(config-if)# max-retries 1

(config-if)# quiet-period 5

(config-if)# discovery-period 10

(config-if)# enable



(config)# aaa authentication port-access dot1x authenticator enable



At least authentication was working. CoA did not work, SNMP did not work. 
Meaning even manual port resetting in the GUI did not work. I had to physically 
disconnect the Port for reauthentication.

I put this project on hold since I could not find any more documentation.



kind regards

Johannes

Betreff: [PacketFence-users] Compatibility with PacketFence v9.0.0 and Aruba 
6300M CX-OS

Hello packetfence-users,

I am looking to replace a fleet of HP Procurve and Cisco Catalyst switches with 
Aruba CX-OS switches.  I was wondering if anyone can confirm whether they have 
successfully configured RADIUS communication between an Aruba CX-OS switch and 
PacketFence version 9.0.0 (I'm attempting to configure MAC Authentication 
Bypass).  I do see SNMP traffic with the switch in the /usr/local/pf/logs logs, 
but I do not see any RADIUS communication traffic.  I know I'm on a 
significantly older version of PF, and there does not seem to be any Aruba 
CX-OS option to choose from when selecting the switch type when configuring the 
network switch in PF.  I've selected the general option of Aruba Switches.

I also do not see any documentation for an Aruba CX-OS configuration setup in 
PacketFence documentation.  There is an Aruba section, however it looks like 
these configurations are for the older Aruba OS syntax.

In case anyone else is using Aruba CX-OS and can point out where I've gone 
wrong, the following are my general RADIUS and SNMP configurations.

radius-server host <PacketFence IP Address> key ciphertext 
**********************

aaa group server radius packetfence
    server <PacketFence IP Address>

aaa accounting all-mgmt default start-stop group radius packetfence

aaa accounting port-access start-stop group packetfence

radius dyn-authorization enable

aaa authentication port-access dot1x authenticator
    radius server-group packetfence
    enable

aaa authentication port-access mac-auth
    radius server-group packetfence
    enable

snmp-server community ***************************
    access-level rw

snmp-server community ***************

snmp-server host <PacketFence IP Address> inform version v2c

snmp-server host <PacketFence IP Address> trap version v2c

The following is the interface configuration.  The access VLAN specified is a 
blackhole VLAN, and is not tagged across trunk interfaces.

interface 1/1/48
    no shutdown
    no routing
    vlan access 666
    aaa authentication port-access auth-precedence mac-auth dot1x
    aaa authentication port-access dot1x authenticator
        reauth
        reauth-period 14400
        enable
    aaa authentication port-access mac-auth
        reauth
        reauth-period 14400
        enable


Thank you packetfence-users!
