Help trying to get EAP-TLS working (Pfsense / Unifi)

stephenw10

Ha, good point. Localhost only works there for queries from other services on the firewall.

The Compact-Red theme looks like that.

I can post up my config(s) I am running unifi, and have been using eap-tls for years..

I had logging turned off - just turned it on and reconnected my phone

Jan 25 09:48:45 	radiusd 	18361 	(7) Login OK: [johnsXR] (from client uap-pro port 0 cli F4-06-16-4F-F6-36) 192.168.2.2 Auth-Type: eap

Thanks for the replies.

Yes, I am on version 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 (arm).

I made the following changes
Radius Auth/Acc servers changed - made a big difference (we are getting somewhere now!)
radius servers.png

I unselected the two checkboxes for RADIUS assigned VLANs (enabled them so I could confirm that they were not the cause)

I am beginning to see logs on pfsense of a failed Radius authentication, what I see is that Windows is automatically selecting a different certificate generated by another CA instead of my pfsense CA. I can't seem to select my user certificate at all.

Pfsense logs:

This is the Windows error

Did you have to encode your client or server files in any particular way? Such as the common name to get it to work? Also did you select the WPA-Enterprise SSID straight out of the box, or did you have to manually add a network to get it going?

alnico

I also have tried to import the certificate on a brand new Windows 10 laptop, still no luck with getting it to work.

@alnico You can also do a radsniff -x on your pfSense box to help diagnose radius issues.

Any reason why you're using nonstandard ports for radius ?

Are you trying to do radius assigned VLANS or just WPA2 Enterprise?

Try switching off Enable RADIUS assigned VLAN for wired network & Enable RADIUS assigned VLAN for wireless network if you don't need it.

alnico

@nogbadthebad I am using non standard ports as I used the standard ports for OpenVPN authentication. I wasn't sure if I was to reuse the same ports for EAP-TLS, so I changed them.

Radsniff did not throw up anything unfortunately.

@alnico If radsniff doesn't show anything radius requests aren't hitting your router.

Also try a radtest while running radsniff -x

What does your NAS / Client view look like, it should be something like this, radius requests come from the Unifi APs rather than the controller:-

Another reason why Ubiquity will never make it big in the enterprise market.

I'd try to get radtest working from the pfSense box first.

Thanks @NogBadTheBad

I've created an account 'laptop' with password 'abcd1234' (for testing) and these are the results from inside the SG3100:

This is what shows up on Radsniff on another putty session:

These are the firewall rules on the LAN side:

Still no luck "(0) No reply from server for ID 150 socket 3" seems to be the key.

Did you follow the instructions given here for testing.

The radius requests come from the AP not the Unifi controller, is 172.25.10.1 your ap ?

If it isn’t you need to add the ap.

johnpoz

he needs to get the simple local test working first ;)

alnico

My pfsense router (SG-3100) IP is 172.25.10.1.
Unifi AP ip is 172.25.10.2
Controller version upgraded to 6.0.45
Radius package version is 0.15.7_21
Radius logging destination is set to System Logs

I blew away all the prior configs (interface and NAS), rebooted the router, and managed to get an output from inside pfsense using the test case. Output below:

[2.4.5-RELEASE][admin@pfsense.home]/root: radtest testuser testpassword 127.0.0.1:1812 0 testing123

Received Access-Accept Id 195 from 127.0.0.1:1812 to 127.0.0.1:57096 length 20

I now recreated a new NAS/Client and Interface and changed the Secret in the unifi controller to "testing123". This is what it looks like now:

I guess so far so good? Logically the next step is to test Unifi talking to pfsense I suppose - I can SSH into the unifi AP but can't seem to find a command such as Radtest that I can use. Does anyone have the EAP settings in FreeRadius and Unifi that they can share?

If I ever get this to work - I will write a user guide to configure Unifi with Pfsense :)

radtest isn't available on the ap, I just checked.

@nogbadthebad no still no good. Apologies for the delay in getting back, I had some pressing things I needed to attend to.

I will wait for the new pfsense update (since its due this month) and then see how I go.

johnpoz

Not sure what you believe is going to change with how freerad works with 2.5?

Simple way to validate - is look at your log, and just sniff. Do you see traffic hitting pfsense from your AP?
