Hi John, 

You are right that WLCs do not log authentication sessions in syslog. Do you 
have Radius servers to authenticate wireless users? Radius server is the better 
place to collect authentication logs.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] WLC 5508 logging authentications 



Hi 

We have one 5508 (soon to be a failover pair) and don’t run PI. Our users 
connect either through 802.1x or an open SSID with a webauth portal from the 
5508. I need to be able to log authentications so I can track down users who 
have annoyed DMCA or our security department. I’m finding that 5508 syslog 
outputs a huge amount of stuff, but doesn’t include successful authentications. 
I’ve found some posts that indicate that info is only available through SNMP 
traps, but I haven’t been able to find the OIDs. Has anyone been able to log 
auths without using PI? 

Thanks 

John
