Hello Derek,

it looks that the per library has been updated and is not still compatible with the packetfence code.

You can try to use the Transport and personality parameter when it use Net::Appliance::Session there https://github.com/inverse-inc/packetfence/blob/devel/lib/pf/Switch/Meru.pm#L158 .

We run a Meru 3200 controller (software Version 5.1-75), I have Packetfence (7.4) running from an ESXi VM on a trunked connection on a Debian Jessie flavour of linux and everything seems to be working.

except for de-association via telnet or ssh on the Meru, every time it attempts to de-associate via telnet or ssh
it throws this in

/usr/local/pf/logs/packetfence.log

Failed with Missing required arguments: personality, transport at (eval 1979) line 75.

or

I've tried all combinations in the Switches settings from SNMP to Telnet and SSH ....I've even logged into the packetfence server su'd to the packetfence user and initiated an SSH connection to the Meru to accept the keys, but always the same error in packetfence.log

functionally it works if you connect to the wifi then register on the portal, then turn off your wifi, turn back on and connect to the same SSID it puts you in the right VLAN and everything works as it should, it just won't de-associate on the Meru with ssh or telnet.....

I'm aware of the PMK caching issues, our version allows you to turn off PMK caching, and I'm aware that Meru doesn't pass the SSID with the radius request on an open wifi and only supports CLI de-association via telnet or SSH, but I've run out of steam on this one I cannot see how I can get it to de-associate
if it won't connect to the Meru CLI.

the user I've created on the Meru has level 15 access so it doesn't need elevated privs on the meru but it never gets that far


switches.conf

[10.11.60.2]
registrationVlan=10
defaultVlan=40
isolationVlan=20
description=Meru
radiusSecret=redacted
deauthMethod=Telnet
cliUser=pf
cliPwd=redacted
cliEnablePwd=redacted
guestVlan=248
VoIPLLDPDetect=N
controllerIp=10.11.60.2
cliAccess=Y
VoIPCDPDetect=N
ExternalPortalEnforcement=Y
VoIPDHCPDetect=N
macDetectionVlan=232
type=Meru::MC

Am I missing something glaringly obvious here ? Any help appreciated


Regards

Derek
