CE7305 - Transparent mode authentication does not work.

[r.hew]

Hi,

I’m doing a trial content engine 7305 for my customer. Everything worked well so far with the box except with the authentication feature.

Authentication work well on proxy mode but when I turned it on with transparent mode it does not work. My customer is using LDAP for user authentication.

I suspect there is something that I did not turn on in the configuration.

Attached herewith is the show tech of the Cisco 7305 content engine.

Please advise!

Thanks in advance,

Raymond Hew

Hi Raymond,

What type of LDAP server are you using?

Can you also post the output from 'debug authentication http-request' when a users tries to authenticate?

Hi Zach,

My customer is using Novell LDAP.

Right at the moment the CE is already working with the auth. after rebooted the CE 7305. Just can't explain why but it works after rebooting.

Thanks for your fast respond.

Best regards,

Raymond Hew

Hi,

could you give it a try removing the rule action for pattern 29. Furhtermore can you please ensure that the HTTP-Traffic is send towards the CE and not bypassed on the router.

Kind Regards,
