====== Using Aruba MPSK with FreeRADIUS ====== | ====== Using Aruba MPSK with FreeRADIUS ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | A few months ago Aruba introduced the MPSK authentication feature for their WiFi systems. With MPSK it is possible to have a PSK protected SSID but with a per device/MAC password. Unfortunately it is only officially supported to work with the Clearpass Policy Manager from Aruba. However, we figured out how to use it with the FreeRADIUS RADIUS Server. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Configure the SSID ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | From the WebUI, create a new SSID with MPSK authentication. It is not possible to select an existing RADIUS server, just create a new dummy server. Now, edit the SSID profile and now change the dummy server to your (previously configured) FreeRADIUS server. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Configure the FreeRADIUS Server ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | When a client connects the controller will send a RADIUS request to the server. In the response you have to include the vendor-specific attribute '' | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you operate a proxying RADIUS, like we do, your config could look like this: | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | post-proxy { | ||
+ | | ||
+ | Aruba-MPSK-Passphrase := " | ||
+ | } | ||
+ | } | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Some Notes ==== | ||
+ | Using MPSK without Clearpass is not officially supported and TAC probably won't help if any problem occurs. The controller will cache the password for a period of time (seems to be a couple of hours). | ||
