Cisco AAA/Identity/Nac :: ACS 5.1 Configuring LDAP With Secure Authentication?
Mar 15, 2012
I am setting up an LDAP identity store over ldaps in ACS 5.1. I specify that the connection uses secure authentication and provide the Root CA certificate. When I hit "Test Bind to Server", I get this error message in a popup window: "Connection test bind Failed :server certificate not found"Is this saying that ACS can't find the CA certificate uploaded, or does it mean the actual certificate presented by my LDAPS server during the bind test?
I am working on project with Secure ACS 5.2. I am trying to determine the proper External Database to use. LDAP or direct to AD?
Additionally, the Domain that I am connecting to has Multiple sub domains. All of the users are currently in the Sub domains, but will be moving to root domain later. How should I configure the connection, do I need to connec to each sub domain or can I just connect to the root?
I'm trying to configure an ASA to communicate with an AD environment that is only using LDAP Secure (LDAPS). I've configured authentication to ASA's with LDAP lots of times, though never with LDAPS.
Presumably there is a procedure to install a certificate in the same way as an RSA sig in VPN.
I am having a problem getting an ASA running 8.3 to authenticate an SSL VPN directly against an LDAP on Windows Server 2003. I have changed the read access on the Active Directory to allow Annonymous to read it. I think I am missing something on the ASA config. I have the Server Group specified with the address of the correct server but nothing else really configured.
is it possible to validate the ACS Application Accounts against an external repository like LDAP? I have found that LDAP can be used only as Identity store to authenticate users on AAA clients and Network devices.
but when i test, i have an error (user account work directly in server)

Does Cisco Secure ACS 5.3 support LDAP authentication with Apple Mac OS X server? One of our clients require an access control system. The major portion of the network consists of Apple Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) Server and clients. They were using MAC-address based authentication along with LDAP through Cisco Wireless LAN Controller. But now the number of users has exceeded the maximum number of MAC addresses supported by WLC (2048). Hence we suggested ACS appliance to overcome the limit. My doubt is whether ACS 5.3 appliance can communicate with the Mac server and perform LDAP authentication.
Cisco 5508 wireless controllerCisco ACS 5.1LDAP connection I have setup the wireless controller to do RADUIS authentication with the ACS 5.1 using LDAP. The setup is currently working, Brief info below on setup.
I setup the PC client to use WPA2-Enterprise AES and authentication method CISCO PEAP. When I connect to the SSID this will prompt for a username and password. I will enter in my AD details and the ACS with the LDAP connection will authenicate and on the network I go.
Now I want to add machine authentication with CERTIFICATES, each laptop and pc in our network has CA certificates installed.
way that I can add these certificates into the ACS 5.1 so I pretty much want to import them into the ACS. Once they are imported inside I want the ACS to check that the certificates are on the PC and then prompt for the AD username and password, and only once it meets these two conditions it allows the workstation onto the network.So it will be a two form authentication one with certificates and the other ldap.
While configuring LDAP , I got struck in “Step 3 - Directory Organization”. How to make this work? My aim is to make users authenticated from their windows domain usernames and passwords while they log in to AAA clients.
I set up LDAP store pointing to a Windows domain and am testing authenticating users via an ASA. In my LDAP config, its set for "Groups Objects refer to subjects" and I selected usernames in the drop down. I also added a a Global Group to the Directory groups tab in the LDAP store that I created.
Under my Access Polices, I created a rule that meets two condititons - coming from the ASA, and then I was able to select the group from the drop down box for my ldap domain. As a condition, it shows up as DomainName:External Groups. I set the permission to Permit Access.
Originally, I was failing authentication and I was receiving Subject Not Found in Store. I adjusted the Identity Sequence and now I receive a the following error:
15039: Selected Authorization Profile is Deny Access. So it must not be associating my account with the group with the Permit Access and using the Default Permissions.So it does match the correct Access Service, and Identity Store.
I've recently been looking into linking in our Cisco 2960S Gb Switch with RSA SecureID via Radius.I've already managed to link it in for ssh access
but I've not managed to get it working for http / web access to the switchI think this is because we're using "single use" tokens for maximum security with RSA Secure-ID and the web interface attempts to authenticate multiple times against the Radius part of the RSA SecureID server (okay on the first authentication, but each time after it's going to want a different token code)
(if there's a way to get the switch to just authenticate once instead of multiple times against the radius server) For info the switch is a WS-C2960S-24TS-L with IOS 15.0(1)SE2
Currently on ACS 5.2 and our MS Active Directory is migrating to a completely new domain. There will be a two way trust between them for the 24 month migration period. How best to configure ACS connect to both domains?
We added AAA client in the Cisco ACS 5.0 for WLC 4402 (TACACS+ Authentication) and configured WLC 4402 to use TACACS+ authentication for the management access. We can't get this work for some reasons.
Other Cisco routers and switches all worked fine with TACACS+ authentication. This is a TACACS debug output from the WLC;

configuring 802.1x authentication on ACS 5.1.0.44 & Catalyst 2960S switches.All the documents i have found seem to have incorrect screen shots or missing steps.I have found a doc external to Cisco [URL]however this just hangs when attempting to complete the task in figure G.The other docs are for configuring IBNS & assume that 802.1x is already configured.
I have seen that the current WLC software release, 7.0.116.0, does not support secure LDAP using TLS. Are there any plans to incorporate this feature? (I've read that it was supported in previous releases to version 4.2). Is it in the roadmap of the product?
I have a new Cisco Secure ACS 5.2 on a VM. We want to use it to for administrative access to our Cisco equipment with TACACS+. I am trying to map user permissions to different groups of devices based on active directory group membership, however it is not working.
I am using an LDAP (configured for secure authentication) external identity store. On the directory organization tab, I have confirmed the accuracy of the subject and group search base and the test configuration button shows that it's finding > 100 users and >100 groups.
On the directory groups page I have entered the groups according to the required format. cn=groupname1,ou=groups,dc=abc,dc=com
I have a rule based result selection under group mapping. I have two rules in the format below.
Conditon LDAP:Externalgroups groupname1 Result Identitygroup1
I have the default group set to a identity group named other. My problem is, no matter what user attempts to authenticate, the Default rule is applied, and the user is put into the other identity group.This occurs when I log on as a groupname1 user, groupname2 user, or as user that is not a member of either of those groups. LDAP authentication works and the user is able to logon to the device.
i am facing an issue while trying to configure LDAP integration on Cisco ASA firewall. The requirement is allow the remote access VPN to specific group defined on AD. When i checked the debug logs " debug ldap 255" , it shows that the authenication is sucessfull with the LDAP server , but the ldap attribute is not getting mapped and because of this reason , the tunnel-group default group policy of "NOACCESS" is getting applied ( vpn simultanous set to zero) that results zero connection.
I confirmed this by changing the value of NOACCESS from zero to one and found that the VPN is getting connected
The name of user account is testvendor that belongs to the group of Test-vendor.
The configuration and debug output is shown below.

I have cisco ASA 5505 with security plus, i configured remote VPN with ASA for LDAP authentication which works as i want. Now i have a requierment that some users needs to get access via remote VPN but they are not part OUR SERVER Active directory, Is that a possibility that users have an access of remote VPN while not creating an account in AD and perfrom local authentication via firewall for them?
I have some problems integrating WLC 4400 with AD using ldap. The the WLC LDAP Server and W LAN for Web Authentication are configured according to [URL].
when I connect to SSID the laptop is given the ip address, then I can see the web-page with lo gin and password - it seems to be OK, but when I enter lo gin and pass it tells me, that it's incorrect.
The attributes of the LDAP server:
Server Address *.*.*.* Port Number 389 User Base DN ou=ORG,dc=domain,dc=local User Attribute userPrincipalName User Object Type Person
the test user is located in AD folder ORG, but this folder also contains a lot of sub trees
There are some questions:
1) Is it obligatory to use value "Authenticated" in the Simple Bind option or it can be Anonymous? 2) Is the Controller capable for searching the users located in User Base DN sub trees?
Here is some debug from the controller:
667: LDAP_CLIENT: UID Search (base=..... 669: LDAP_CLIENT: ldap_search_ext_s returns 0 85 669: LDAP_CLIENT: Returned 1 msgs including 0 references [Code]....
I'm trying to get my LMS 4.2.3 to do LDAP authentication up against our Windows 2008 R2 Domain.url...
As far as I can see It all has to do with LMS not being able to get a functional connection to the AD that allows for LDAP query's: [code] How does this LDAP thingie work? The documentation states that I must supply a specific user to the Usersroot, since I'm on a 2008 domain, but where do I provide the password for this account, so LMS can log in and do its LDAP queries?
Is LDAP web authentication supported on the AIR-WLC2006-K9? There is a place to add LDAP servers in there but I can't seem to get the web authentication piece of it to work. I saw some idications on forum posts online that made me think that it wasn't supported but I never found a definitive cisco answer. I have it set up and working great on a 5508 wireless controller.
We are attempting to use LDAP for web authentication on a WLC 4402.
[URL]
You are able to connect to the SSID and it reidrects you to the login page as it should. When you enter your username and password you get a message that "the username and password combination you have entered is invalid." Based on the following log it looks like the LDAP bind is the issue.
*LDAP DB Task 1: Dec 19 11:19:26.584: %AAA-3-LDAP_CONNECT_SERVER_FAILED: ldap_db.c:1038 Could not connect to LDAP server 1, reason: 1005 (LDAP bind failed).
We are able to test the following configuration with ldp.exe successfully,

I have two WLC5508 controllers configured with multiple SSIDs and a VLAN associated to each of them. Now I am deploying a pilot for Web-Authentication and everything seems to be fine except for the LDAP authentication part. I have done all the steps for enabling anonymous bind on Active Directory (AD) and the configuration on the controller is properly in place. I know the configuration is working fine because I have isolated the problem to some sort of routing or communication problem:
AD is on Vlan 2 (Student Interface range)Each interface has its own IP in a different IP range.
If there is an IP address configured on the Vlan2 interface, LDAP wont work. If there isnt an IP address on the Vlan 2 Interface LDAP works!So you may think I just should not configure an IP for that particular Vlan, but if do this, the controller wont allow to associate any WLAN to that particular Vlan interface and unfortunately I am using it.
I think the Controller uses the Management interface to send traffic to the LDAP server and it gets confused of getting a reply from a device which belongs to the Vlan 2 Interface IP range (AD is on Vlan 2).
I know the controller is a Layer 2 device, so I am not sure why it should need an IP address to be configured for each interface, I read it is used just for roaming purposes but it seems to be somehow related to LDAP communication process as well.
The strange thing is that I can access the management interface IP from the Vlan 2 range and there is not problem at all.
Does the LDAP authentication work across W2K3 Active Directory domains and multiple ASA5510 firewalls? Or do I need to setup another type of authentication? If I use another type of authentication can I get specific portals with special bookmarks based on login account?
i have following problem. I configured on a Cisco ASA5510 VPN authentication with LDAP. It works fine but one thing doesnt works.If i configure on my Active Directory the user for "User must change Password at next login" the message for password change is coming (look screenshot AnyConnect1), but if the user want to change his password, the password will not accepted by the system(look screenshot AnyConnect2).In the Group Policies on my Active Directory i disabled all features(look screenshot Pic1)I tried all combination for the password, but nothing will accepted.i configured LDAP over SSL and in the Tunnel Group i enabled the password management with "NOtify User 2 days prior to password expiration".
We are using WLC-5508 in our corporate. For authenication we have implemented ACS with LDAP configured as external user database. We can able to get authenicated for Web based authenication. When it is configured for EAP-FAST, authenitication is not happening.
Is it possible to use both LDAP (to Active Directory) authentication for a WLAN defined on a 5500 series controller, and use the local user account database (AAA) for the guest vlan?
I'm trying to set up my Cisco ASA 5505 to authenticate against and openldap server. Authenticate with a user's LDAP username and password is working fine.
I've hit Google pretty hard but can't seem to find a simple answer. It seems like RADIUS might be easier for this kind of thing, but I haven't gotten that set up yet and my familiarity with RADIUS is pretty minimal right now.
I've gotten to the point where I can test against active directory and get in, also I can get AD groups from my server on the ASA. My problem, I can't connect in via my AnyConnect client on my Android. I immediately get a "log in failed" and I know I'm using the right username/pass. Doing a little troubleshooting, I have attached my AnyConnect debug log and the results of the "debug ldap 255" command on the ASA. Also, I've used ldp.exe to determine I can connect in with the username/password combo I'm using.Combing through the AnyConnect logs I see a few instances of "global error unexpected" but no Google searches have brought up anything useful.
