Hello all,

I am using Cisco WLC 2500 as the authenticator with Packetfence 8.1 for the 
WiFi. The WiFi profile is configured to be Open, with Radius and AAA Override 
settings. I intend to use it for MAC Authentication to bring a Captive Portal 
for registration. All that I have configured, but I have problem with hitting 
the right profile. If I configure this - call it boyd_profile with Connection 
Type Wireless-802.1-NoEAP, this profile wont be matched, instead default 
profile is matched. If I changed Connection Type Wireless-802.1-EAP the other 
profile that has also the same connection type is matched because it has higher 
priority. But if I set this profile with higher priority it will be matched. My 
question is why it is matched, despite I am using MAC Authentication (Captive 
Portal) and not EAP? Why it is not matched when using Wireless-802.1-NoEAP?

Also all Packetfence guides for this open network setup instruct to mark "Mac 
Filtering", but when using this I am not even able to connect to that SSID. I 
guess this is because the host MAC needs to be entered before in MAC Filtering 
table. Is this intended to work like this or I am missing some point here? Is 
it meant to work by first adding the MAC of the host wishing to connect and 
then after it is added to the MAC filtering table he will connect and hit the 
Captive Portal, where he can authenticate using RADIUS, eg EAP-PEAP and after 
that provisioning agent can provide it configuration profile?
