Hi,

you are right, this will never work, since web authentication via LDAP is not 
supported before 5.x releases.
(in the GUI you can verify that there is no option to choose the web auth 
priority order, which can be done in later WLC versions)

See the WLC 5.0.148.0 release notes for more information: 
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/release/notes/crn501480.html

New Guest Access Features
[...]
*LDAP support-In controller software release 5.0.148.0, the controller supports 
web authentication using LDAP.

Regarding the certificates: you can import any certificate for the local 
computer account using the management console and the certificate snap in. So 
if you take care of using the proper hostname for the certificate it should 
work via openssl.
But to be honest ... I have never tried it :)

Regards
Stefan

Betreff: [CCIE Wireless] Web authentication using LDAP in 4.2 version - 
Computer certificates

Hi guys.

Finalizing the preparation for my first attemp to the lab, I found a problem 
using ldap for the authetication of my guest clients using a webauth method. In 
fact the problem is I can´t see any attemps to ask to LDAP database from the 
WLC, and I 'm starting to think whether this authentication method is supported 
in this software version.

The LDAP database is a Windows AD.

WLC version 4.2

I applied the following document and although the version used is 5.1 I 
supposed that really should work.

Any idea???; this afternoon I hope to capture the output for the WLC "debug aaa 
all enable" but I advance that shows nothing.

About computer certificates; is there any way to issue a computer certificate 
for a non domain computer through Microsoft CA?; because using the web GUI 
there is not possibility; the only way is using autoenrollment when the 
computer belongs to the domain; other posibility (not used yet but tomorrow I 
will try it) could be using openssl like Cisco explains in this document.

What do you think, guys???

Thanks.

Best Regards.
