This guide documents how to configure the RADIUS IPSec feature supported by WCS and these WLAN Controllers:

[LIST][*] 4400 Series[*] WiSM[*] 3750G[/LIST]
The Controller RADIUS IPSec feature is located on the Controller GUI under the [B]Security > AAA > RADIUS Authentication Servers[/B] section. The feature provides a method for you to encrypt all RADIUS communications between Controllers and Microsoft RADIUS servers (IAS) with IPSec.
[B] Prerequisites [/B]

[B] Requirements [/B]

Cisco recommends that you have knowledge of these topics:

[LIST][*] Knowledge on LWAPP[*] Knowledge on RADIUS Authentication and IPSec[*] Knowledge on how to configure services on the Windows 2003 Server Operating System[/LIST]
[B] Components Used [/B]

These network and software components must be installed and configured in order to deploy the Controller RADIUS IPSec feature:

[LIST][*] WLC 4400, WiSM, or 3750G Controllers. This example uses WLC 4400 that runs software version 5.2.178.0[*] Lightweight Access Points (LAPs). This example uses 1231 series LAP.[*] Switch with DHCP[*] Microsoft 2003 server configured as a Domain Controller installed with MS Certificate Authority and with Internet Authentication Server (IAS).[*] MS Domain Security[*] Cisco 802.11 a/b/g Wireless Client Adapter with ADU version 3.6 configured with WPA2/ PEAP[/LIST]
The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.
[B] Conventions [/B]

Refer to [URL="http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk801/tk36/technologies_tech_note09186a0080121ac5.shtml"]Cisco Technical Tips Conventions[/URL] for more information on document conventions.
[B] IPSec RADIUS Configuration [/B]

This configuration guide does not address the installation or configuration of MS WinServer, Certificate Authority, Active Directory or WLAN 802.1x client. These components must be installed and configured prior to the deployment of the Controller IPSec RADIUS feature. The remainder of this guide documents how to configure IPSec RADIUS on these components:

[LIST=1][*] Cisco WLAN Controllers[*] Microsoft Windows 2003 IAS[*] Microsoft Windows Domain Security Settings[/LIST]
[B] Configure the WLC [/B]

This section explains how to configure IPSec on the WLC through the GUI.
From the Controller GUI, complete these steps.

[LIST=1][*] Navigate to the [B]Security > AAA > RADIUS Authentication[/B] tab in the Controller GUI, and add a new RADIUS server.
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-1.gif[/IMG][*] Configure the IP address, Port 1812, and a shared secret of the new RADIUS server. Check the [B]IPSec Enable-[/B] check box, configure these IPSec parameters, and then click [B]Apply[/B].
[B]Note: [/B]The shared secret is used both to authenticate the MS RADIUS server and as the Pre-shared key (PSK) for IPSec authentication.
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-2.gif[/IMG][/LIST]
[B] Configure the Microsoft Windows IAS [/B]

Complete these steps on the Microsoft IAS:

[LIST=1][*] Navigate to the IAS manager in Win2003 and add a new RADIUS Client.
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-3.gif[/IMG][*] Configure the RADIUS client properties with the IP address and the shared secret configured on the Controller:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-4.gif[/IMG][*] Configure a new Remote Access Policy for the Controller:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-5.gif[/IMG][*] Edit the properties of the Controller Remote Access Policy. Make sure to add the NAS-Port Type - Wireless – IEEE 802.11:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-6.gif[/IMG][*] Click [B]Edit Profile[/B], click the [B]Authentication[/B] tab, and check MS-CHAP v2 for Authentication:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-7.gif[/IMG][*] Click [B]EAP Methods[/B], select EAP Providers, and add PEAP as an EAP type:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-8.gif[/IMG][*] Click [B]Edit[/B] on Select EAP Providers and choose from the pull down menu the server associated with your Active Directory user accounts and MS CA (e.g. tme.tme.com). Add the EAP type MSCHAP v2:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-9.gif[/IMG][*] Click the [B]Encryption[/B] tab, and check all encryption types for remote access:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-10.gif[/IMG][*] Click the [B] [B]Advanced[/B] [/B] tab, and add RADIUS Standard/Framed as the Service-Type:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-11.gif[/IMG][*] Click the [B]IP[/B] tab, and check [B]Client may request an IP address[/B]. This assumes you have DHCP enabled on a switch or MS WinServer.
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-12.gif[/IMG][/LIST]
[B] Microsoft Windows 2003 Domain Security Settings [/B]

Complete these steps in order to configure the MS Windows 2003 domain security settings:

[LIST=1][*] Launch the Default Domain Security Settings manager, and create a new security policy for Wireless Network (IEEE 802.11) Policies.
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-13.gif[/IMG][*] Open WLAN Network Policy Properties, and click [B]Preferred Networks[/B]. Add a new preferred WLAN and type the name of your WLAN SSID, such as Wireless. Double click that new preferred network, and click the[B] IEEE 802.1x[/B] tab. Choose PEAP as the EAP type:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-14.gif[/IMG][*] Click [B]PEAP Settings[/B], check [B]Validate server certificate[/B], and select the Trusted Root Cert installed on MS Certificate Authority. For testing purposes, uncheck the MS CHAP v2 box for Automatically use my Windows login and password.
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-15.gif[/IMG][*] In the Windows 2003 Default Domain Security Settings manager window, create another new IP Security Policies on Active Directory policy, such as [B]4404[/B].
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-16.gif[/IMG][*] Edit the new 4404 policy properties, and click the [B]Rules[/B] tab. Add a new filter rule - IP Filet List (Dynamic); Filter Action (Default Response); Authentication (PSK); Tunnel (None). Double click the newly created filter rule and select Security Methods:
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-17.gif[/IMG][*] Click [B]Edit Security Method[/B], and click the [B]Custom[/B] Settings radio button. Choose these settings.
[B]Note: [/B]These settings must match the Controller RADIUS IPSec security settings.
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-18.gif[/IMG][*] Click the [B]Authentication Method[/B] tab under the Edit Rule Properties. Enter the same shared secret that you previously entered on the Controller RADIUS configuration.
[IMG]http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/109774/ipsec-wlc-19.gif[/IMG][/LIST]
At this point, all configurations for the Controller, MS IAS and MS Domain Security Settings are completed. Save all configurations on both the Controller and WinServer and reboot all machines. On the WLAN client that is used for testing, install the root cert and configure for WPA2/PEAP. After the root cert is installed on the client, reboot the client machine. After all machines reboot, connect the client to the WLAN and capture these log events.
[B]Note: [/B] A client connection is required in order to set up the IPSec connection between the Controller and WinServer RADIUS.
[B] Windows 2003 System Log Events [/B]
