Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Microsoft NPS as RADIUS for 802.1X Wi-Fi?

I only use NPS for Cisco RADIUS auth. Otherwise, all of our authentication hits Extreme NAC (uses FreeRADIUS as a backend). I dislike NPS very much. *--Jeremy L. Gibbs* Sr. Network Engineer Utica College IITS On Wed, Nov 16, 2016 at 3:29 PM, Mike Atkins wrote: > Bruce, > >

Lee, We use Microsoft NPS for radius on dot1x wireless (ND-secure & eduroam.) Troubleshooting and getting debug information has been very difficult. Finding a deployment guide on expected performance/load is also impossible to find. I think configuration is absolutely key. My impression is

We've used NPS since before it was called NPS. We rarely have any issues. Sorta like DHCP- just runs. We do almost everything as 802.1x. It really depends what you're trying to do. Microsoft Event Logs can be used to troubleshoot, but they can be like event logs always are- not fun.

We have migrated our ACS servers to FreeRADIUS with success. We looked into NPS and the roadblock was the realm suffix stripping. We need to strip username d...@uoguelph.ca to just 'dxu' before authenticate with active directory. NPS only strips the outer PEAP identity but not inner identity.

Ditto. But technically we use PacketFence which uses FreeRADIUS under the hood. We had the same realm stripping problem with ISE 2-3 yrs. ago. We use realm stripping internally as well as when proxying externally. I understand the external realm stripping was fixed long ago. Not sure if
