PC lost connection with network. using 802.1x authentication

PC lost connection with network. using 802.1x authentication

Iā€™am configuring NAC on our switches and have created 802.1x rules for our AD PCā€™s and users.

We are testing this with 3 pcā€™s. The management access to the switch is based on AD (LDAP).

The ports of the switch are configured for 802.1.x and MAC authentication.

Now we experience that two pcā€™s lost the connection with the network. At that time I could not log in to the switch. 100% sure that I used the correct credintials.

In the end system events I noticed that the profile was changed form AD-user profile to the denny access profile.

After a while I can log in the switch an the pc got the access to the network back.

How can I troubleshoot this.

Switch: X440G2-48p-10G4 firmware version 22.4.1.4

Well that does look a little funny.

The rule looks pretty straight forward, only an LDAP criteria.

Right click the NAC --> WebView --> diagnostics --> communication Diagnostics and test the LDAP. Are there LDAP issues occurring like timeouts?

The other thing you can do is in the webview --> diagnostics --> End System Diagnostics enable by MAC for your test device and have it fall through the rule. Attach the end system events and the /var/log/tag.log to a case with GTAC and we can take a look to see why it's falling though.

I would suspect LDAP communication issues based on what you've provided.

Thanks
