Thanks Fabrice,
That's a great response.  

Just so I'm certain though would this still allow us to setup our own custom 
registration form? I'm guessing yes as mention about setting the URL on the 
controller.
Thanks again
Lee

  Hello Lee,
 
 we have already successfully deployed external captive portal with Aruba 
controller.
 It´s really simple and the code is already ready to go.
 
 On pf side you must:
 - have a registration interface without dhcpd and dns enabled.
 - Configure the aruba controller as a Aruba 200 Controller, deauth method 
RADIUS, only select 'Role mapping by switch role' and set the role you defined 
in the controller 'Register' and 'Guest' and also define a radius secret (the 
same on both sides).
 
 On the controller you must configure packetfence as radius server (mgmt 
interface), enabled rfc 3576, and define 2 roles.
 
 The first role 'Register' will include an acl that restrict http and https 
traffic to packetfence (reg ip interface):
  rule <IP> 255.255.255.255 match any any any permit
  rule any any match udp 67 68 permit
  rule any any match udp 53 53 permit
  rule any any match any any any deny
 
 The second role 'Guest' will allow any:
  rule any any match any any any permit
 
 
 Also configure the url of the captive portal but i can´t remember where 
(probably in Authentication -> Security).
 
 BTW you don´t have to use ESI XML, all the role change will be done by CoA 
(rfc 3576).
 
 
 Regards
 Fabrice

 Hi Everyone, Ive recently been asked by employer to investigate if its 
possible to use PacketFence as an external capture portal for guest users along 
with an Aruba wireless controller.  The key reason for looking at PF is the 
ability to do self-service which the Aruba cannoy do by itself. Ive not had any 
experience with PacketFence before but from what I can tell if supports all the 
necessary elements. We'd be looking to deploy in out-of-band mode which I 
believe is the default anyway. The one bit that does appear to be missing is 
the ability to report back to the Aruba via its ESI XML interface which is 
necessary for the Aruba to give the user access, it doesnt. Has anyone had any 
experience of this and is it possible to add additional authentication methods 
to PacketFence? Thanks in advance Lee
