ISE cannot push the profile to the cisco network setup assistant?

200naveen — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 04:36:24 GMT

We have tried a few android devices with version 4.2+ but still got the error message ‘Unable to download profile.(Have you logged into the guest portal?)’ as shown at the bottom picture.

In fact, we are connecting the devices to an open SSID which performs MAC filtering, then redirect to CWA and login with AD credentials,

then redirect to Google play store and can successfully download the network setup assistant.

Could you please advise the possible reasons that would cause this error message and make ISE cannot push the profile to the cisco network setup assistant?

I beleive that the nsp utility finds the ise server, by sending an http request to the default gateway, so make sure you are redirecting that as well, or it won't be able to find the ISE, also make sure that the port ISE used to deploy that config with is allowed

what is ISE patch level ?

Having the same problem. Originally, the network setup assistant couldn't find the ISE server until we denied access to the default gateway on port 80 in the WLC ACL for provisioning. Now it can find the server and I can see requests on the firewall going to ISE on port 8905, however, I'm getting the same error about not being able to download the profile.

I'm running ISE 1.2.1 patch 1 and using an Android 4.4.4.

See if you can add all the

See if you can add all the ports that the NSP client needs to touch ISE. Also if you have some time troubleshoot can you ssh into the PSN node and run the following command:

show logging application ise-psc.log tail and see if there are any error messages?

Also can you check the android logs (/sdcards/downloads/spw.log)

Thanks,

Here's a snipit from the Android spw.log. I see that there is an error trying to verify the hostname. Is it possible that this is caused by a non-trusted certificate? I'm using the self-signed cert built into ISE. I have an entry in the public DNS for guest.domain.com that resolves to the IP of my ISE server accessible from the guest subnet. I'm allowing all traffic from the guest VLAN to the ISE vlan on the firewall and all traffic to/from the ISE server in the provisioning ACL I have applied by ISE on the WLC during native supplicant provisioning. I know that guests can communicate with the ISE server since regular guest portal redirection works, just not the network setup assistant. I've renamed the domain to domain.com in this snipit.

Stephen Buck — Tue, 22 Jul 2014 07:55:19 GMT

Success!! The clue was this:

ERROR:java.io.IOException: Hostname 'guest.domain.com' was not verified

Earlier in the log there is an http 200 message indicating a successful query to the ise server, however, this is because the discovery by the network setup assistant is done via http and not https. When the profile is downloaded, it uses ssl and was failing due to the certificate not being trusted. I installed a public cert and the profile downloaded and then connected me to the new SSID specified in the profile. I'm sure if the self-signed certificate in ISE was installed as a trusted CA on the phone, that this would also work.

Hope this helps anyone else experiencing this problem.

Wow it was hell of a game!

Wow it was hell of a game! The first time i did BYOD & registered a device it worked like a charm! but the second time on the same device was ugly! i had to go to certmgr.msc & delete Ise as a trusted CA plus had to delete the personal certificate issued to me from ise ! then it worked thank God.

Ok the thing is I THINK!! iam not sure yet but the trusted CA for ISE that we added must be resolvable! means DNS must work perfectly,for example if the name of your ise server is ISE.local.com then that must be resolvable in DNS ..... you need a little info on certificates if u wana play with this dude...

Feel free to email me at ahmed.mukhtar@dwp.com.pk, we could try and resolve the issue.
