  • 1.  Aruba Instant On 1960 802.1x RADIUS Clearpass Port Access Control

    Posted 02-26-2024 11:02 AM

    I am attempting to set up a 1960 switch (JL807A) to authenticate and then assign a VLAN to a wired endpoint. The authentication portion works and the RADIUS response from Clearpass is as follows:

    Radius:IETF:Session-Timeout 32400
    Radius:IETF:Termination-Action 1
    Radius:IETF:Tunnel-Medium-Type 6
    Radius:IETF:Tunnel-Private-Group-Id 106
    Radius:IETF:Tunnel-Type 13
    Status-Update:Endpoint Known

    The switch never assigns vlan 106 to the endpoint. Looking at the Access Control Client Information portion of the Port Access Control menu shows the VLAN ID as 0. I will paste my config below, but to summarize what I've configured so far:

    1. Management VLAN with static IP. Uplink port is configured as untagged on this VLAN.
    2. Created 20 more VLANs (including the example VLAN 106 which is being assigned in this case) and tagged them on the uplink port.
    3. Enabled 802.1x Authentication and Accounting modes in Security>RADIUS Configuration as well as added the Clearpass server as a RADIUS server.
    4. Enabled Admin Mode in Security>Port Access Control. Edited the Port Configuration of the port the endpoint is connected to (1/1) and set the Control Mode to Auto and enabled VLAN Assignment.
    5. Tagged all VLANs except management VLAN 100 on port 1/1 and untagged to VLAN 1.

    Before setting up RADIUS I made sure that my actual VLANs are working if I just untag them on the ports manually, but the goal is to have all the ports configured for automatic VLAN assignment based upon what Clearpass sends back. What am I missing here?

    I ended up switching to TP-Link Omada for my purposes, but I did get wired Clearpass working for InstantOn switches. I don't remember specifically what I was missing on the switch side, however I've pasted my last config that I'm pretty sure was working below. Hope this helps.

    Hi

    Working with Clearpass I have added a radius attribute in the reply: Avenda-Tag-Id (1) = 0. 

    So the total response in the profile to allow access and put the port in VLAN 10 for example is: 

    Tunnel-Type = VLAN,

    Tunnel-Medium-Type = IEEE-802,

    Tunnel-Private-Group-ID = "10"

    Avenda-Tag-Id (1) = 0

    You can of course add other attributes like timeout etc.

    The same answer in a similar thread: https://community.arubainstanton.com/discussion/8021x-authentication-and-dynamic-vlan-assignment-with-aruba-1960-switch

    If you have any questions, just let me know.
