802.1x and BYOD

[Bruce123]

We are looking at setting up a BYOD network.

 

We have successfully setup the SSID to authenticate users via the RADIUS server.

 

However, also need our proxy/filter to know who the user is (for filtering and logging).

 

We don't want the users to have to authenticate twice, how would this normally be achieved?

 

Any advise is appreciated.

 

WiFi: MoJo

Proxy: Smoothwall (operating in bridged transparent mode).

 

Many Thanks,

 

Bruce.

We use smoothwall as the radius server so it knows who everyone is and applies the correct filter policies for the user

This or use NPS and forward the accounting info to smoothwall. Have a look at the smoothwall knowledgebase for more info.

Yep, smoothwall running radius...and also running dhcp for the BYOD vlan from smooth wall. We include some rules in firewall to allow ..for example staff logon to print via qr code and printer app to printer vlan.
