WLC configuration for EAP-TLS

deanyoung — Sun, 04 Jul 2021 19:45:05 GMT

Hi,

I am tring to set up a Cisco WLC 2006 with EAP-TLS + WPA.

Everytime I try to log in to the network my wireless card gives a message saying " validating user", but nothing else happens.

I cannot find any manual for configuring this. Can anyone perhaps assist?

Regards

Dean

More details would be helpful:

What RADIUS server are you using, what CA are you using, where (what VLAN) they located, which port of the WLC are you connected to (RADIUS/CA)?

Are you using the Vendor's client software or MS wireless zero config? Which version? or Linux? Which distribution/version?

Having this info will be a good start ...

Let us know

Scott

How do you have the RADIUS server configured? Also, how is your PKI setup?

Hi Scott,

Yes I should have mentioned the following.

The EAP-TLS & WPA was working fine on the IOS based AP1230 solution.

After converting to the centralized solution with the WLC 2006 it does not authenticate anymore.

Making use of Microsoft IAS server. No Ciso ACS involved.

What does your event system log say on the IAS box and also the log on the WLC?

Hi,

I found the problem. On the IAS server I had the controller's management interface defined and saw that the server was complaining about the address. I changed it to the AP-Manager IP address and now I have EAP-TLS and WPA1 / TKIP working.
