Hi Bob,

Are you using ZEN (the Zero Effort NAC) pre-built VM? Or your own

What is the exact error you get with eth0?

What does running this command:-

cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

show you?

Regards,

Mark


VLAN 1 is my
management VLAN, I was hoping to get access to PF  on VLAN 1 and then
build out from there.

Yes, that will be fine. So you'll want to have eth0 on vlan 1 and set it
as management in PF.

Mark,

Thank you!   I really appreciate your help. First I have to get to the
interface. When I Mount my VM and watch it boot, I get a Failure when
determining Eth0 IP config. I'm using a trunk to feed the PF VM.
Admittedly I'm not a Linux or Perl pro, but I feel the benefits of this
are well worth the learning curve.  Currently I'm using some of the VLAN
ID's already, so Ill have to transpose those first. VLAN 1 is my
management VLAN, I was hoping to get access to PF  on VLAN 1 and then
build out from there.

Bob,

Have a look in,

/usr/local/pf/lib/pf/vlan/custom.pm

around line 63:

you have to change the code slightly to have PF to pass the 'Bypass'
VLAN attribute.  I

#
   # custom example: enforce a node's bypass VLAN
   # If node record has a bypass_vlan prefer it over normalVlan
   # Note: It might be made the default behavior one day
   if (defined($node_info->{'bypass_vlan'}) &&
$node_info->{'bypass_vlan'} ne '') {
       return $node_info->{'bypass_vlan'};
   }
#

I

You will see in the code you can also assign devices to VLANS via other
methods than using the Bypass attribute - eg by category - which would
probably work better for you as you have quite a few VLANS in your
setup.

In my network I have a 'trusted' VLAN (vlan 1) and 'untrusted' (vlan 3)
(set as the 'normal' VLAN in PF).  When someone completes registered
they get put in VLAN 3, we can then put them in VLAN 1 using the bypass
VLAN attribute I described.

My PF box has interfaces in the Trusted (VLAN1) set as
management,dhcplistener,monitor,internal in PF  , Untrusted(3) set as
dhcplistener,internal,monitor in PF, Registration (50) set as
registration in PF, and finally Isolation(60).  You could use less
interfaces by configuring 8021Q on them I think although as your running
a VM (as am I) you probably won't mind having 4 NICS.

I believe the PF box needs to be able to see DHCP traffic on all your
VLANS -.  In my method I set a dhcplistener on the two interfaces but as
you have 32 that won't be practical (you won't want 32 interfaces!) see
the admin guide  (page 26)section  on dhcp listeners, you'll want to use
ip-helpers I would think.

HTH, give me a shout if you need more help.

Mark

Subject: [Packetfence-users] 32 Internal Normal VLan

Hey everyone, Newbie here.



I have a large network with 32 vlans, Each VLAN is its own subnet, and
DNS and DHCP are all handled by our Sonic wall NSA. I would like to use
Packet Fence for NAC. The documentation refers to several vlans, manage,
Registration, Isolation, Mac Detection, Guest, and Normal. I already
have a management VLAN, and have no problem creating the other 4. My
question is the 'Normal" vlan. I would have 32 of these correct?  I sure
someone has done this, and is documented it here. I just need someone to
point me in right direction. I'm using the Newest Version of PF in a VM.
I have 3Comm 5500 switches.



Thanks for your help.
