Wireless guest ISE 3rd party WLAN controller

[Knutsen2004]

Hi

Anyone here that got experience with configuring wirless guest authentication with fortiwlc(Meru) and Cisco ISE ?

If someone have some information or can give me a clue how to proceed with this it would be much appreciated

Hi

I don't have any experience with Meru wlc.
However, the steps for 3rd parties are quite the same for every vendor:
- create a new radius dictionary for Meru
- create a network device profile Meru
- create your Meru device and attach the network device profile.
- then create an authorization Profil sending the right radius attributes that meru devices expect for that situation.
For some devices, it's required that the URL redirect is setup locally.
To help you on that, here a link for Aruba (https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security/identity-services-engine/200270-ISE-2-0-3rd-Party-integration-with-Aruba.html)

You should find a documentation for your wlc talking about all radius attributes needed and what type of attributes (format). You gonna need it to setup the radius dictionary for Meru in ISE.

Hi

Yes, I did it using Cisco ISE 2.2 with DHCP scope.

The goal is that ISE gives IP addresses within a specific scope and it will add itself as dns server. Then it can catch all traffic and send a redirect. 

This is the way I'm doing it and it works very well.

Sending the url redirect to the device, it's sometime a challenge depending on vendor.

Thanks
