LDAP authentication on vWLC without ACS/ISE

pkemp

Am setting up the virtual Wireless LAN Controller. Have WPA2/PSK working fine. Am also trying to do a pretty vanilla user authentication against Active Directory via LDAP. 

Should I be able to do LDAP user authentication just using the vWLC and AD servers?

In the past I've use ACS, but don't have it available here (or ISE).

Using  software 8.1.111.0 and 2602 APs.

Thanks.

Web Authentication Using LDAP on Wireless LAN Controllers (WLCs) Configuration Example : http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless/4400-series-wireless-lan-controllers/108008-ldap-web-auth-wlc.html

Thanks.

So it seems web authentication is the only mechanism that can use LDAP. Hence, LDAP not available with 802.1x WPA2 just using WLC?

From doc:

Note: Web authentication is not supported with 802.1x authentication. This means you cannot choose 802.1x or a WPA/WPA2 with 802.1x as the Layer 2 security when you use web authentication. Web authentication is supported with all other Layer 2 security parameters

Got WPA2 / Web-auth with splash page working with LDAP authentication to back end AD server.

Hi Pkemp,

Did you get a way to configure WPA and AD/LDAP authentication without ACS?

Thanks,

Thuc

Hi Thuc. No. I tried, but could only get Web-auth working with LDAP, which we are now using.

Peter

Thanks for your reply. So, I find out Local EAP Authentication on WLC without ACS. Do you try this one?

No. We wanted support for EAP-TTLS, which Local EAP apparently doesn't support.

Thanks you for advice.
