WLC PEAP authentication

Chandra Sinnarajah — Sun, 04 Jul 2021 04:01:02 GMT

I've created a local EAP profile for PEAP authentication and configured user accounts in the WLCs. When I tried to connect to the SSID via my iPhone, popped up a certificate (local WiSM) and I accepted it then it failed with incorrect username/password. The same username/password works fine with Windows Vista laptop. Any help?

Thanks

That was an issue and you can search the forum on this. What code are you running by the way. I know it didn't work with the 6.x but did work with 4.2. I can test it out on the 7.0.x code.

The s/w version is 6.0. Can you confirm whether it will work for iPhone/iPad if I upgrade the WLCs to 7.x

Thanks

Sorry I'm unable to do that due to security reasons and blah...

I checked debug client mac-addr and it shows EAP-Failure but I dont know the reason for that as for Windows everything is fine...

May be just show local-auth config, show wlan x, show local-auth statistics.?

I am assuming you have only peap checked . ( and nothing else enabled like Server cert etc ). IPhone is it running latest code ?

Thanks..Salil

Would you mind sharing what Apple IOS version you were running when experiencing the issue and what version you upgraded to for the resolution?
