Cisco ISE Authentication Methods

Admin Eastland

I have a five year old deployment running 2.4 patch 4. When I built ISE I originally wanted domain computers to authenticate using EAP-TLS. For reasons I can't remember I could not get that working and I settled for MAB for machine authentication and PEAP-MSCHAPv2 for user authentication.

 

Yesterday I started to work with EAP-TLS authentication again and I got a wired authentication working for EAP-TLS. The problem is that I had several machines drop their sessions and try to use EAP-TLS. This totally locked their authentication and I was forced to turn of my EAP-TLS rule. The problem was that I created a whole new rule for EAP-TLS, but I made the mistake of putting the rule above my PEEP rule. I have since moved the EAP-TLS below PEAP, but my test machine stops at the PEAP rule with the error saying that I had a computer using a rule for authentication using username and password, but the machine is configured for certificate authentication.

 

I need some assistance with an authentication rule that will allow both EAP methods to live together without interference of each other. I'm wondering if under the PEAP and EAP-TLS authentication rules if I need to set the advanced options i.e. "if authentication failes" set it to "continue" rather than "reject" or something like that. Since I am making headway on EAP-TLS I would like to continue to get this working for wireless so I can have it complete to where all I have to do is set the GPO to pull the machine/user certificate and go live. Any assistance would be great. Thank you.

Hi Eastland,

 

Could you screen the rules unless private information there to see how you put the rules?

Just did that.
