Configuring Web Portal WebAAA 467

Configuring Web To configure Web Portal WebAAA:

Portal WebAAA

1Configure an SSID or wired authentication port and set the fallthru authentication type to web-portal. The default for SSIDs and for wired authentication ports is none.

2Configure individual WebAAA users. Because the VLAN is assigned based on the service profile (where it is set by the attr vlan-namevlan-idoption) or web-portal-wireduser (where it is set to default), MSS ignores the VLAN-Name and Tunnel-Private-Group-ID attributes. However, MSS does assign other attributes if set.

3Configure web authentication rules for the WebAAA users.

4Save the configuration changes.

Web Portal WebAAA Configuration Example

This example configures Web-Portal access to SSID mycorp.

1Configure the user VLAN on ports 2 and 3, and configure an IP interface on the VLAN:

WX1200# set vlan mycorp-vlan port 2-3 success: change accepted.

WX1200# set interface mycorp-vlan ip 192.168.12.10 255.255.255.0

success: change accepted.

The VLAN does not need to be configured on the switch where you configure Web Portal but the VLAN does need to be configured on a switch somewhere in the Mobility Domain. The user’s traffic will be tunneled to the switch where the VLAN is configured.

2Configure the service profile for SSID mycorp. Configuration includes the following:

„Set the SSID name.

„Change the fallthru authentication type to web-portal.

„Set the default VLAN to mycorp-vlan(created in step 1.) MSS will place Web-Portal users into this VLAN.

„Enable RSN (WPA2) data encryption with CCMP. (This example assumes clients support this encryption type.) TKIP is enabled by default and is left enabled in this example.

WX1200# set service-profile mycorp-srvcprof ssid-name mycorp success: change accepted.
