Cisco VPN :: ASA 8.4 Ldap Attribute-map Does Not Support Special Characters
Sep 20, 2011
After trying for several hours to configure ldap attribute to cisco attribute mapping, I found that special characters are not supported by ldap attribute-map at least on 8.4
I have been trying to connect a camera to the wifi router at my mother's assisted living facility. The password has a special character, "!".
After hours waiting on the phone with tech support, they confirmed that only letters and numbers are supported. Guess i have to take it back.
Incidentally, the software is changing "!" to "%21", which is the escape sequence used in URL's. The camera software isn't mapping it back. Should be fixable in firmware.
I'm authenticating users against Active Directory and want to also check additionals attributes from LDAP. In ACS 5.3. it was possible to set this up via External Identity Sequence, but in ISE I don't see this possibility. I can set sequence only for authentication, but not for additional attribute retrieval.
When I set a condition in a policy that an LDAP attribute must match with some value, the attribute is not retrieved and autorization ends on default Deny Access.
I have a working ASA 5505 that is used for remote access. It authenticates users via RADIUS (Microsoft AD using two IAS servers), it also authorises users via LDAP and it does some LDAP attribute mapping to get group membership for DAP. This is all working fine however recently I enabled IPv6 to do some testing. I have a /126 subnet on the Inside interface (maps to its equivalent /30 IPv4 subnet) and OSPFv3 running so the ASA has visibility of the internal IPv6 networks. DNS client is enabled in the ASA and all the authentication servers are entered as hostnames. The two RADIUS servers only have A records and the two LDAP servers (Windows DC's) have both A and AAAA records. My plan was to begin test IPv6 on the AnyConnect VPN clients (once I was happy the ASA was working fine with IPv6).
When I initially enabled IPv6 everything continued to work as before, however I had to reboot the ASA today and after it all came back up authorisation stopped working. I did a bit of troubleshooting and the ASA is complaining of not being able to resolve the addresses of the two LDAP servers. From the CLI I can ping the hostnames and the LDAP servers resolve to IPv6 addresses and the RADIUS servers resolve to IPv4 addresses. When I issue the command 'show aaa-server LDAP' (LDAP is the name of the group) I see the servers listed but the address displays 0.0.0.0:
Prior to the reboot both the LDAP servers were showing thier addresses (IPv4) correctly. I can workaround it by disabling IPv6 on the ASA, letting it lookup the (IPv4) addresses of the LDAP servers (so they appear in the 'Server Address:' field above) and then re-enabling IPv6. Strangely deleting and re-adding the servers just with their IPv4 addresses also fails but I haven't fully tested this. I don't know but I think I would have the same behaviour if the RADIUS servers also had AAAA records.
I assume when IPv6 is enabled on the ASA it will perform AAAA lookups as well as A lookups but the LDAP client cannot use IPv6? Just guessing at the moment as I haven't managed to get a LAN capture. [code]
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 took a SANS 401 class a few years back, and I remember them showing us how you could break PING (buffer- overflow? memory stack?)by pinging things you wouldn't normally.This was on WinXP I can't duplicate this on Win7, and have forgotten what exactly it was we typed in....I think it was some ALT-code characters, or a tick, 0x33 or something....I realize PING can take octal, decimal, and hexadecimal values?
I have 2811 router and tried to login through AUX port. I am using multitech modem to dial. When i try to login i am getting all special characters in the screen. I have changed the cable but still the same result. I have tried with different link speed also.
When i checked the router , it is showing AUX user is logged in at the time if issue(with show user command).But i am getting only junk character and some times blank screen.
I just got one of these and it works pretty good except I can't get it to take more than a 32 character WPA2 PSK. Tried using Firefox and IE and it doesn't make a difference. This is for my house. I'm retiring an old Cisco 1200 series AP and as well as a Cisco 1130. Using the same PSK and it doesn't work. Even if I just put 32 characters and just try typing more characters, it doesn't accept any more.Running 1.0.0.3 code and don't see anything newer or any firmware for it for that matter.
I have a Cisco Aironet 1200 series Access point and currently i am using wep with 128 bit . My concern is that i want to change this key with current SSID .
My current SSID is ABtc. My current key is abcdefgh12345. when i try to change the key its give me error :
"encryption key must be 26 hexadecimal characters" .
sometimes I let my friends to use my laptop but unfortunately they can see password of my wireless router which my laptop is connected to by going to this wifi network Properties and then to Security and then check in "Show Characters" box..so is there any way to prevent them from seeing my wifi network password in Windows 7?
Regarding our international subsidiaries there are many names that contain the character "-" (i.e. Pierre-Pascal)When trying to create an new Guest Account the ISE refuses it because of an invalid character in the "First Name" field.In other formular fields i.e. Email Address - the character "-" is allowed.Is it possible to change the rule which checks the fields for illegal characters? (Is it a Bug?)
I just purchased an SG300-10 (negular, non-POE) and planning on using it with no special configuratinos initially. Longer term, will be using VLAN and QOS for VOIP.What I would like to know is if ports 9 & 10 can be used as standard copper cat5e ports, or are they only useful for special purposes? When I hookup my router/firewall to port 1 it all appears to work. If I hook it up to 9 or 10, the port lights do not come on and it doesn't work. I read that ports 9 & 10 don't have POE on the POE switch, but I assumed that all 10 ports would function with cat5e?
i am using the router,rv 120w can i redirect website to a special IP? for example,the website www.cisco.com, can i redirect it to the IP :8.8.8.8 in router?
We have just set up a Secure ACS 5.2 VM to provide authentication for Anyconnect VPN clients. The clients connect to an ASA 5520, which queries the ACS, which in turn queries Active Directory directly. All seemed to work OK, but I noticed it was using PAP. Following some docs, MS-CHAPv2 was enabled via the "Password-management" command. This broke the configuration and the error on the ACS was:
11309 Incorrect RADIUS MS-CHAP v2 attribute Some references suggest that the ASA and ACS should talk MSCHAPv2 without additional config, so I guess it must be the ASA config for the tunnel-group. There are additional secondary authentication and authorisation pages on ASDM, that I suspect might be necessary to use mschap.
I'm configuring a Cisco 7206 NPE-G2 as B-RAS for PPPoE over a Gigabit Ethernet interface. Everything is OK but I'm having problems when i try to pass the framed-route attribute from the RADIUS to assign a /29 sub net to a PPPoE client, the 7206 seems to skip it and no route is installed in the routing table.
This is the configuration: upgrade fpd auto version 15.0 service timestamps debug datetime msec service timestamps log datetime msec service password-encryption [code]......
I tried also with Cisco-AVpair ip:route with the same results.
I'm using Cisco ACS 3.3 for RADIUS. How to do I make Vendor-Specific attribute available? (Attribute number 26, format: OctetString) The online help makes reference to it, but does not tell you how to make it available.
Is it possible to send profile name as an Radius atribute during client authentication? I would like to match users depends on profile name to sperate Identity Stores in my ACS. ASA 5540 8.4, anyconnect 3.1.01065, ACS 5.1
I'm in the throes of configuring my 5520 to supply different group policies based on LDAP group membership. I'm finding that no matter what I do only the default group is applied. I'm sure it'll be a simple fix - but I just can't see it. [code]
I am installing my AE1000 in a new computer. During installation I enter my wireless network password which is on 5 characters long but the next tab does not light up to proceed to the next step. It only lights with 8 characters though my password is 5 characters long
Basically I want to query Radius for AD group membership and apply a set of Bookmarks based on that group. I would use LDAP, but we have two domains and I need both to be available for login, so I am using ACS 5.3 as a proxy. I saw that using attribute 4242 for DAP for group membership, but what is the Group syntax?
ACS 5.3 always sends the class=cacs:xyz attribute in an authentication response. How can I suppress that behaviour? The Cisco Email Security Appliance doesn't support multiple class attributes (defect 49096) and even treats guest users as administrators.
how to add tacacs custom attribute to ACS 4.2 for Nexus 1000V:shell:roles="network-admin admin-vdc"In the interface configuration I've added new service, service - shell, protocol - tacacs+.In the group settings I've enabled this attribute configuration. And it is not works. Default privilege level is assigned to any user with access allowed.
I have an Asus Dual-Band Wireless-N (RT-N56U) that has worked wonderfully with my other 5 computers.Both the 2.4 ghz and the 5 ghz appear and connect as they should with my other computers.However, after purchasing my Dell Inspiron 17R Special Edition this year (Windows 8 comes preinstalled), I can see only the 2.4 ghz in the available wireless network lists. No matter what I do, I cannot see the 5 ghz wireless band connection with the Dell. I have several other computer in the same room that see it just fine, but the Dell does not.What do I need to do to get my Dell to see this 5 ghz connection?
i just got a couple of these units delivered but have problem. the power supplies (j8712a) have this plastic insert key between the 3 prongs in the female connection. The cheapest nema 5-15p to iec c15 power cable I found in usA coincidentally is through hp for $23.75usd plus shipping (hp part 8121-0973): [code]
Lately we have been comsidering an upgrade in our organization involving a 1921 router. The main role it will play is a load balancer/failover between 2 connections from 2 different ISPs. what additions are required to be added to this piece of equipment to make the configuration work. Im researching the matter now and it seems an extra card whould be purchased in addition to the router. Also, i cant seem to find much information on the available licenses to go with the router. will i need a special license to utilize the balancer/failover feature? (ip base, data, SEC).
We faced with problem after upgrade ASR from 12(2) 33 XNE2. I know that this is an old XE release but our Radius deny authization from ASR with more new XE version. Here is our radius attribute configuretion:
! radius-server attribute 44 include-in-access-req radius-server attribute nas-port format d radius-server host x.x.x.x auth-port 1812 acct-port 1813 non-standard
[Code]....
How can I add in my configuration that ASR send necesserry NAS-Port-Type - VPDN
I couldn't found out any info ((( for radius-server attribute 61 extended
