We are using Aruba CloudPath for RADIUS & Guest and Cloudpath XpressConnect 
Wizard for onboarding,

We have wired 802.1X (PEAP-MSCHAPv2 & MAC auth) in our dorms with Cisco 
switches.  We use vlan names instead of numbers to give scalability in our 
environment.

We also use Cisco phones and have clients connected through the phone. We use 
EAP-TLS with the preinstalled certificates or mac auth for older models.

If I had to do things again, I would look at using predefined ACLs applied at a 
port level.

Is anyone doing any of these for wired, using 802.1X?

I went with the Extreme Netsight product at my last shop and found it to be 
excellent.  I could assign policy to an end user pretty much on any criteria I 
could think of.  I was hard pressed to find something I could not do.

The nice thing about Extreme is that it is a fully integrated system across 
wired and wireless and you can apply the exact same policy to a user no matter 
how or where they connect.  Naturally it works best if you have Extreme for 
both wired and wireless but it is not necessary.

Hi Matthew,

We are currently deploying a new Aruba network with ClearPass after evaluating 
both them and Extreme pretty heavily. ClearPass was one of the major deciding 
factors in us ending up with Aruba. As Frank and Russ mentioned, it is very 
full-featured. We are using the RADIUS functionality for our main 
WPA2-Enterprise network and using their guest and registration features for 
everything else. We are very impressed so far.

I would be happy to talk specifics if you are interested.

Take care,

We’re looking into a few RADIUS solutions and I was wondering if any of you had 
any experience with the following products and what your thoughts are on them:

Cisco ISE
Aruba ClearPass
Extreme NetSight
Cloudpath XPressConnect ES

Any input would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Respectfully,
