Thanks for the intel.  I was told to wait for ISE 2.0 Patch 1 (which
will now be patch 2, because of that emergency patch).

 

Any other issues you are experiencing?  Did you get the TACACS license
for it? 

 

Thanks,

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco ISE 2.0 Warning

 


For those of you who are using the Cisco Identity Service Engine (ISE)
product I wanted to provide some warnings to anyone thinking about
moving to the 2.0 release. There are several EAP device connectivity
issues that could impact your site. 

First, when ISE 2.0 was released it added support for TLS 1.2 in EAP
messages. Somehow with all the summer news from Google about them adding
TLS 1.2 in Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) Cisco missed testing Android 6.0
before ISE 2.0 release and as such Android 6.0 clients couldn�t connect.
To make matters worse the Windows 10 big November update either added or
modified its EAP TLS 1.2 support and machines that upgraded had the same
fate as the Android 6.0 clients; not able to connect. The good news is
Cisco released a patch last week for ISE 2.0 to fix the TLS 1.2 problems
for these devices, so make sure you install that patch right away, it is
the only thing the patch fixes. The Cisco bug on this issue is
CSCuw88770 

In addition to the issues with Android 6.0 and Windows 10, ISE 2.0
removed all legacy RC4 and DES ciphers. This causes issues with any
device that does not support newer more secure ciphers in their EAP
messages. The devices will not be able to connect with any EAP method as
they can�t complete the handshake. In our testing this impacted all
Cisco Wireless 792X phones in addition to some Windows Point Of Sale
Embedded OS machines. For the Windows POS devices we where able to find
a update from Microsoft to add newer cipher support. I am sure there are
more devices then this that will have issue but these are the devices we
found in testing. This issue is not fixed yet. The Cisco bug on this
issue is CSCux27365. 

Hope this helps anyone thinking about going to ISE 2.0!
