Chapter 9 NAC Configuration Scenario

Step 3: Set Up System Configuration

Step 3 To make the PEAP global authentication parameters available in the NAP configuration, check the check boxes for:

•Allow EAP-MSCHAPv2.

EAP-MSCHAP is a variation of the Microsoft Challenge and Response Protocol that is used with the Protected Extensible Access Protocol (PEAP). For a description of the EAP-MSCHAPv2 protocol, see the “Authentication” section in Chapter 1 of the User Guide for Cisco Secure ACS, 4.2, “Overview.”

•Allow EAP-GTC.

For a description of the EAP Generic Token Card (EAP-GTC) protocol, see “EAP-FAST Authentication” in Chapter 9 of the User Guide for Cisco Secure ACS 4.2, “System Configuration: Authentication and Certificates.”

•Allow Posture Validation.

For a description of Posture Validation, see the “What Is Posture Validation” section in Chapter 13 of the User Guide for Cisco Secure ACS, 4.2, “Posture Validation.”

Step 4 In the EAP-TLS section:

a.Check the Allow EAP-TLScheck box.

b.Check the Certificate SAN comparison and Certificate Binary comparison check boxes.

c.Leave the EAP-TLS timeout field set to the default (120 minutes).

Step 5 In the EAP-MD5 section, check the Allow EAP-MD5check box.

Step 6 Scroll down to the MS-CHAP configuration section, and check the Allow MS-CHAP Version 1 Authentication and Allow MS-CHAP Version 2 Authentication check boxes, as shown in Figure 9-7.
