Hi,
Please help me understand Packetfence philosophy. I see that you are very helpful in the mail list. I just need you to give me some push to the right direction :) Let me describe the situation. We have a working network, with a windows AD. I prepared a switch for testing (in production mode), with isolation, registration, management vlans. I run Packetfance on a physical machine. I did set up the switch to communicate with pcketfence by radius. Now, if I connect a notebook to the switch, it is sending the mac address of the client to packetfence, then pf sets the port to the registration vlan and the client gets and IP address from the registration subnet pool. I set up pf to our domain network. I set up realm, also I set up source as AD validation (first I want to check if user or computer is member of a group or member of AD). My main problem is that can I somehow avoid the registration through captive portal? Can the username/password or computer/hostname be used as an authentication? I just want to avoid all users to have to manually authenticate on the captive portal. Is that possible? I hope yes, as packetfence can query the AD domain. Packetfence is also joined to the windows domain. My next step would be to manage this work on wifi, we have Ruckus AP's with zonedirector. (It worked fine with windows NAP) Next, How can I set up to check if user is member of group? And how can I check state of Firewall, antivirus and so? Can I be checked before the access to the network? I just want to avoid logging into a captive portal as it takes time for the users! This would remain for mobile or guests. We can force users to set 802.1x authentication for the network interface it is not a problem. There we can set network authentication method like PEAP or EAP-MSCHAP v2. Thank you very much, I really need your help here to get familiar with packetfence :) Gábor Barócsi Network and System Engineer ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
