EAP-MD5 authentication Failing with 22056 Subject not found

M. Wisely

We have Mitel phones which we're trying to get to authenticate. We're using an internal user account and there is an authentication rule that points usernames beginning mitel to the internal users data store. When I plug the phone in I see only failed authentications with the above failure reason.

In the authentication report I can see that the selected identity stores only lists internal users.

I've double checked and the username in the request matches the username I created.

We're running v2.1

Thanks

What condition are you using to match the username in your authentication rule?  Post a screen shot of the details.

Check in the RADIUS logs and make sure that it is really failing authentication, and not the authorization step.  You can use wildcards if you need to use static conditions.  Make sure that your identity sequence has the applicable stores in it, and that the authentication policy is set to continue if authentication fails, and to continue to the next store if the user is not found.

Also, remember that it is the device that is authenticating, not the username (the mitel username is for SIP with your voice system).  You will need to make sure your identity sequence continues to the Internal Endpoint store, as this is where the device exits.  Just test with the condition above, and it should work.  I also break my Policies up to manage them better:

VPN policy

Wireless policy

Dot1x policy

MAB policy

Default policy

This way you can assign the authentication and authorization conditions with much more control

It's been configured with a username and password to authenticate to the network. This is separate from any voice config.

Surely it's only hitting the default rule because ISE cannot find the identity in the identity store specified in the authentication rule hence the error message.

We break our policy sets down as well (though in a different way).

Is the same set of the credentials working on other clients, perhaps using a different protocol?

If not already done, I would suggest to engage Cisco TAC to troubleshoot this further.

you are matching the catch all "Default Rule" in the authentication profile for Dot1x.  You will need to look carefully at the RADIUS log under attributes.  Try creating a authentication rule that matches the Calling-Station-ID thet you see in your attributes, and place it above your default.

We have Avaya phones set up the same. Do you use 1 account for all phones?

Below is the flow I use.
