Enabling PEAP-MS-CHAP-V2 Offload
The following example illustrates how to enable PEAP-MS-CHAP-V2 offload. In this example, all EAP processing is
offloaded from the RADIUS server, but MS-CHAP-V2 authentication and authorization are done through a RADIUS
server. The MS-CHAP-V2 lookup matches users against the user list on a RADIUS server. Because the WSS switch
requires a certificate for authentication, a self-signed certificate is shown in this example.
1 Configure the RADIUS server r1 at IP address 10.1.1.1 with the string starry for the key. Type the
following command:
23x0# set radius server r1 address 10.1.1.1 key starry
2 Configure the server group sg1 with member r1. Type the following command:
23x0# set server group sg1 members r1
3 Enable all 802.1X users of SSID thiscorp using PEAP-MS-CHAP-V2 to authenticate MS-CHAP-V2 on
server group sg1. Type the following command:
23x0# set authentication dot1x ssid thiscorp * peap-mschapv2 sg1
4 To generate a public-private key pair and a self-signed EAP certificate, type the following commands:
23x0# crypto generate key eap 1024
key pair generated
23x0# crypto generate self-signed eap
