Hello Mehdi,

first you need to enable the service snmptrapd.

Next step is to enable the pfsnmp queue, to do that edit pfqueue.conf and add that:

#
# pfsnmp queue configuration
#
[queue pfsnmp]
#
# The weight of queue among shared workers
#
weight=4
#
# The number of dedicated workers for queue
#
workers=2

#
# pfsnmp_parsing queue configuration
#
[queue pfsnmp_parsing]
#
# The weight of queue among shared workers
#
weight=2
#
# The number of dedicated workers for queue
#
workers=2


Next do a pfcmd configreload hard then restart packetfence.

Regards

Fabrice

Hello again,

We've setup a test network (one server, two clients and a Netgear GS748T switch), installed PF and imported some nodes. The switch is configured to send traps to a PF interface. However, they are never processed by PF. We can see them arrive to the server with tshark or tcpdump but nothing else happen. snmptrapd.log and packetfence.log are silent about any traps-related event. snmptrapd is running and iptables is allowing port 162. PF is running on CentOS 7.

Maybe the PF network configuration is wrong:
Interface  VLAN             Address           Type
p4p1       switch VLAN99    10.0.99.100/24    Management -> where traps should be received
p4p1.98    switch VLAN98    10.0.98.252/24    Mac Detection
p4p1.97    switch VLAN97    10.0.97.252/24    Registration
p4p1.96    switch VLAN96    10.0.96.252/24    Isolation
p4p1.30    switch VLAN30    10.0.30.252/24    for authorized clients

Maybe trap configuration is wrong:
public read-write    10.0.99.100/24
trap                    10.0.99.100/24   port 162

Maybe the switch is not properly supported by PF. We're planning to renew our switches next year.

Or are we totally missing something in the PF config ?

Regards

Hello Mehdi,

Import all your Mac using a CSV file under Node > Create.

It will register all the Mac address and during the import you will need to assign a role.

MAB, Mac authentication bypass is a RADIUS method. I think you want to use SNMP which is most commonly call Port-Security using a trap security event.

Thanks,

Hi,

We're trying to setup a wired MAC-based authorization system to dynamically assign VLANs. We don't want to use RADIUS (not suitable for our needs), just MAB. We don't have any AD but already a list of all MACs addresses, which may be formatted to any format if needed. We thought PacketFence would be a great solution. The website (and the documentation) describes a perfect suitable solution for our existing infrastructure: Link Change SNMP Traps:
https://packetfence.org/about.html#/vlan
Our switches are Netgear GS748T (no Cisco in our infra) which only support LinkUp/Down Traps. And since they're the same family than the documented GS110 switch, we thought they would be usable with PF. We installed PF in Bypass mode but we can't figure how to implement the solution. The main trouble is we can't figure out where to fill our MAC list into PF. Do we need to create a VLAN filter for each MAC ? We're a bit lost since wer'e PF beginners and we would be thankful for some help.

Regards
