    Hi,

    I'm facing an issue while setting up Clearpass Wired NAC.

    I can authenticate IP phones with Mac-Auth successfully.

    I can authenticate Windows PC with 802.1x successfully.

    But if a Windows PC is connected behind an IP Phone, the IP phone authenticates successfully, but the PC keeps on trying to authenticate with Mac-Auth instead of triggering a dot1x authentication.

    Important precision (maybe): IP phones uses vlan tagging.

     

    Config is:

     

     

    dot1x authentication-method eap
    dot1x timer supp-timeout 10
    dot1x timer tx-period 10

     

     mac-authentication domain clearpass

     

    port-security enable
    port-security mac-move permit

     

    interface GigabitEthernet2/0/8
    port link-type hybrid
    port hybrid vlan 101 tagged
    port hybrid vlan 1 untagged
    undo voice-vlan mode auto
    voice-vlan 101 enable
    mac-vlan enable
    stp edged-port
    poe enable
    undo dot1x handshake
    dot1x mandatory-domain clearpass
    dot1x max-user 10
    undo dot1x multicast-trigger
    dot1x re-authenticate
    dot1x unicast-trigger
    dot1x re-authenticate server-unreachable keep-online
    mac-authentication max-user 10
    mac-authentication domain clearpass
    mac-authentication timer auth-delay 15
    mac-authentication re-authenticate server-unreachable keep-online
    mac-authentication critical vlan 1
    mac-authentication critical-voice-vlan
    mac-authentication host-mode multi-vlan
    undo mac-authentication offline-detect enable
    mac-authentication parallel-with-dot1x
    mac-authentication re-authenticate
    port-security max-mac-count 10
    port-security port-mode userlogin-secure-or-mac-ext

    Any ideas ?

     

    Thanks in advance

    It appeared that the IP phone is filtering the EAP frames from the PC.

    Thanks wireshark !

    Port Config must be ok
