MAC BASED AUTHENTICATION ON ISE

vinayjaiswal — Fri, 21 Feb 2020 18:40:27 GMT

Hi All,

Can we perform mac based authentication on ISE ?

I am doing the same on WLC but have reached the maximum limit.

Is there a way to do the same on ISE 2.3 ?

If Yes, then how ?

Sure - the feature is know as MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB). You can do it for both wireless and wired networks using ISE.

Absolutely, yes, it is possible. You would need to add the MAC addresses to a particular Endpoint identity group and then check the membership of the group in your authorization rules. It is easy to do, but depends on how familiar you are with ISE.
