Lexmark Printers authenticate against NPS but not ACS 5.4

Hello,

we are doing a new installation of a Cisco ACS 5.4 replacing a Microsoft NPS.

Recently I ran into issues with Lexmark wireless printers authenticating against the ACS 5.4.

While these printers work against the old Microsoft NPS we want to replace,

I get "11500 Invalid or unexpected EAP payload received" on the ACS.

Windows/Android/iDevices authenticate against the same SSID using PEAP.

I suspect, we ran into

CSCtq46211            Bug Details

Lexmark Printers work with ACS 4 but not ACS 5
Symptom:
Lexmark printers uzed to work with ACS 4.2 but they produce "internal error" on acs 5.1 or 5.2

Conditions:
Not known exactly


Workaround:

1st Found-In  5.2(0.26.3)

Fixed-In  5.3(0.40.7)

Well...

setting up a new VM with ACS 5.3 patching it to P7, reconfiguring and retest all the stuff

we implemented during several days ist not an option.

The Cisco TAC refuses to open a SR because the product is under warranty only,

and claims warranty only covers HARDWARE replacement... (and we ordered ACS is a VM,,,)

Maybe I should burn the ISO image to a DVD and RMA it for repair

Maybe anybody from Cisco could verify whether the fix for

CSCtq46211 has been integrated to ACS Version 5.4.0.46-B.221 already or not ?

Somebody else here having similar observations ?

Thanks,

Frank

There is an additional option available in ACS 5.4 in the Access Services: "Allow PEAPv0 only for legacy clients".

This option should be selected if the Access Service will handle requests for Lexmark printers
