Hi, I am in the process of moving our standalone AP setup to a LWAPP setup
with a Cisco WiSM. I actually have managed to get everything pretty much
working, but one thing I have not been able to figure out is how to get PF
to properly Deauth users once they register, to place them in the proper
VLAN. If I manually, leave the SSID and come back, then it makes the
switch OK, but we obviously want this to be automated like with the
standalone setup. I am getting this in the packetfence.log:
Dec 06 14:16:09 pfcmd(19120) INFO: trying to dissociate a wireless 802.1x

It is a little unclear to me whether or not the WiSM uses RADIUS or SNMP
for Deauth... it looks like it is trying RADIUS but I have seen other
threads that seemed to indicate that this is done with SNMP. I have double
checked that my shared secret in raddb/clients.conf and in the WiSM config
is correct. Also, IP connectivity between everything seems to be fine. I
have this in my switches.conf:
[10.93.0.252]
mode=production
type=Cisco::WiSM
vlans=92,93,94,95,96
normalVlan=94
isolationVlan=92
radiusSecret=useStrongerSecret
SNMPVersion=1
SNMPCommunityRead=public
SNMPCommunityWrite=private
SNMPVersionTrap=1
SNMPCommunityTrap=public
One other thing I have noticed, which may or may not be related, is that in
Packetfence under Nodes, before it would show me the IP address of the last
AP the user was on, but now with the WiSM it only shows the IP address of
the WiSM instead of the particular IP. Can this be fixed? It is useful to
know which AP a user is associated with, and I am wondering if this is
actually maybe a problem.
Please let me know if you need more info... thanks,
David
