Example for Deploying the Free Mobility Function for Users' Physical Location Change (V200R006C00, V200R007C00, V200R008C00)

Free Mobility Overview

In an enterprise network, different network access policies can be deployed for users on access devices to meet different network access requirements. The application of mobile office and BYOD technologies brings frequent changes of users' physical locations and IP addresses. Therefore, the original network control solution based on physical ports and IP addresses cannot ensure consistency of network access experience. For example, the network access policy of a user does not change when the user's physical location changes.

The free mobility solution allows a user to obtain the same network access policy regardless of the user's location and IP address changes.

The switches must be associated with the Agile Controller-Campus in the free mobility solution. An administrator only needs to uniformly deploy network access policies on the Agile Controller-Campus for users, and deliver the policies to all associated switches. Then, a user can obtain the same access policy no matter how the user's physical location and IP address change.

Configuration Notes

  • Free mobility is supported only in NAC unified mode.
  • The following table lists the applicable products and versions.
    Table 1 Applicable products and versions

    Switch Version

    Agile Controller-Campus Version

    Switch Model

    V200R006C00, V200R007C00

    V100R001

    • S5720-HI
    • S7700 and S9700 that use X series cards

    V200R008C00

    V100R002C00, V100R002C10

  • When the controller delivers a UCL group name that is not supported by the switch, for example, this group name contains Chinese characters or special characters, the switch cannot parse the group name. A UCL group name that can be supported by the switch must be consistent with the value of group-name in the ucl-group group-index [ name group-name ] command, cannot be -, --, a, an, or any, and cannot contain any of the following characters: / \ : * ? " < > | @ ' %. Therefore, when configuring a UCL group name on the controller, do not use Chinese characters or special characters.

  • If the core switch has been associated with an Agile Controller-Campus and has free mobility configured, perform the following steps to delete historical data and reconfigure the core switch.

    1. Run the undo group-policy controller command in the system view to disable free mobility and disconnect the switch from the Agile Controller-Campus.
    2. Run the undo acl all command to delete the access control policy.
    3. Run the undo ucl-group ip all command to delete IP addresses bound to security groups.
    4. Run the undo ucl-group all command to delete security groups.
    5. Return to the user view and run the save command. The system automatically deletes the configured version number.

Networking Requirements

Employees in an enterprise connect to the network in wired and wireless modes and are authenticated using 802.1X or Portal authentication.

The employees do not work in fixed locations and want to obtain the same rights after being authenticated regardless of their access locations.

Figure 1 Networking diagram

Requirement Analysis

As shown in Figure 1, the agile core switch coreswitch (supporting native AC) functions as the authentication point and the access switch is a common switch.

You can configure 802.1X authentication and Portal authentication on the core switch so that wired and wireless users can connect to the network after being authenticated by the core switch.

You can configure free mobility so that users have the same rights and experience regardless of their access locations.

Configuration Roadmap

Configure the core switch.

  1. Switch the NAC configuration mode to unified mode.
  2. Configure interfaces and VLANs, and enable the DHCP server function.
  3. Configure parameters for interoperation with the RADIUS server.
  4. Configure parameters for interoperation with the Portal server.
  5. Configure the access authentication point for fixed PCs.
  6. Configure an authentication-free rule.
  7. Configure AC system parameters to provide wireless access.
  8. Configure XMPP parameters for interoperation with the Agile Controller-Campus and enable free mobility.

Configure the access switch.

  1. Configure interfaces and VLANs to implement network communication.
  2. Configure the switch to transparently transmit 802.1X packets.
    In this example, the LAN switch exists between the core switch and users. To ensure that users can pass 802.1X authentication, you must configure the EAP packet transparent transmission function on the LAN switch.
    • Run the l2protocol-tunnel user-defined-protocol 802.1x protocol-mac 0180-c200-0003 group-mac 0100-0000-0002 command in the system view of the LAN switch to configure the LAN switch to transparently transmit EAP packets.
    • Run the l2protocol-tunnel user-defined-protocol 802.1x enable command on the interface connecting to users and the interface connecting to the access switch to enable the Layer 2 protocol tunneling function.

Configure the Agile Controller-Campus.

  1. Configure RADIUS, Portal, and XMPP parameters, and add the core switch.
  2. Configure security groups Employee_Group and Email_Server to indicate users and resources, respectively.
  3. Use fast authorization to authorize the security group Employee_Group to the employee department. Employees are mapped to the security group Employee_Group after being authenticated.
  4. Configure an access control policy to allow Employee_Group to access Email_Server.

Procedure

  1. Configure the core switch.
    1. Change the NAC configuration mode to unified mode.

      You must switch the NAC configuration mode to unified mode on a switch with the free mobility function configured. The unified mode takes effect after the switch restarts.

        Adjusting the radio channel and power of an AP may lead to parameter adjustment of another AP. To quicken adjustment, minimize the impact, and reduce the workload, you are advised to divide all the APs accessing the same AC into several regions. The impact of adjustment on an AP is limited within the local region.

    8. Configure XMPP parameters for interoperation with the Agile Controller-Campus and enable free mobility.

      [coreswitch] group-policy controller 192.168.11.1 password Admin@123 src-ip 192.168.11.254    //The value of src-ip is the IP address of VLANIF 11.

  2. Configure the access switch.

    In this example, an access switch exists between users and the core switch functioning as the authentication point, and transparently transmits packets. To ensure that users can pass 802.1X authentication, configure the access switch to transparently transmit 802.1X packets (EAP packets in this example because EAP mode is used).

  3. Configure the Agile Controller-Campus.
    1. Add the core switch.

      1. Choose Resource > Device > Device Management.

      2. Click XMPP.

      3. Click OK. The switch's Status is and Synchronization Status is Success.
      4. On the core switch, check the switch's communication status with the Agile Controller-Campus.
        <coreswitch> display group-policy status
        Controller IP address: 192.168.11.1
        Controller port: 5222
        Backup controller IP address: -
        Backup controller port: -
        Source IP address: 192.168.11.254
        State: working
        Connected controller: master
        Device protocol version: 1
        Controller protocol version: 1  

    2. Configure security groups Employee_Group and Email_Server to indicate users and resources, respectively.

      1. Choose Policy > Permission Control > Security Group > Security Group Management.
      2. Click Add and create Employee_Group.

      3. Repeat the preceding step to create the security group Email_Server.
      4. Click next to Email_Server and bind IP addresses of email servers.

      5. Click Global Deployment to deploy the security groups on the entire network.

    3. Use fast authorization to authorize the security group Employee_Group to the employee department. Employees are mapped to the security group Employee_Group after being authenticated.

      1. Choose Policy > Permission Control > Quick Authorization.
      2. Map the employee department to Employee_Group and click OK.

    4. Configure an access control policy to allow Employee_Group to access Email_Server.

      1. Choose Policy > Free Mobility > Permission Control.
      2. Click Add.

      3. Click OK and Global Deployment.

        After the access control policy is successfully deployed, you can run the following commands on the core switch to view deployment information.

        • display ucl-group all: displays security groups.
        • display acl all: displays access control policies.

  4. Save the configuration of Core_SW.

    Choose Resource > Device > Device Management. Click corresponding to Core_SW to save the configuration.

    Saving the configuration is similar to running the save command on the device, which saves all the device configurations (including security groups, access right control policies, and QoS policies deployed on the controller) to the configuration file.

    If security groups, access right control policies, and QoS policies are saved to the device's configuration file, these configurations can be directly restored from the configuration file after the device restarts, and do not need to be requested from the controller. Otherwise, user authentication fails after the device restarts because security groups, access right control policies, and QoS policies are not deployed on the device.

  5. Verify the configuration.

    Users using accounts in the employee department can access email servers after passing 802.1X or Portal authentication regardless of their access locations.
