wpa_supplicant don't reach freeradius in wired 802.1x EAP-TLS


Hi everybody !


I want to make setup a 802.1x EAP-TLS connexion

My network :
Client/supplicant eth0-----f1/1 SWITCH f1/0-----eth1 Freeradius

the Switch is an emulated Switch with GNS3 (IOS Cisco c3700/3725)
freeradius is on a vm (virtualbox, ubuntu-server 14.04)
the supplicant is my computer (ubuntu desktop 14.04)

So I run "freeradius -X" on the vm
and "wpa_supplicant -Dwired -ieth0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -ddd"

Here the problem with wpa_supplicant :

Code:
...
EAPOL: startWhen --> 0
EAPOL: SUPP_PAE entering state CONNECTING
EAPOL: txStart
TX EAPOL: dst=01:80:c2:00:00:03
TX EAPOL - hexdump(len=4): 02 01 00 00
EAPOL: startWhen --> 0
EAPOL: SUPP_PAE entering state CONNECTING
EAPOL: txStart
TX EAPOL: dst=01:80:c2:00:00:03
TX EAPOL - hexdump(len=4): 02 01 00 00
EAPOL: idleWhile --> 0
EAP: EAP entering state FAILURE
CTRL-EVENT-EAP-FAILURE EAP authentication failed
EAPOL: SUPP_PAE entering state AUTHENTICATING
EAPOL: SUPP_BE entering state FAIL
EAPOL: SUPP_PAE entering state HELD
EAPOL: Supplicant port status: Unauthorized
EAPOL: SUPP_BE entering state IDLE
EAPOL authentication completed unsuccessfully
...
I don't know if something in this output means that the switch is responding or not... what measn : idleWhile --> 0, is it normal??
I see nothing on the freeradius side, it's waiting ("Ready to process requests." and no more output)

My wpa_supplicant configuration :
Code:
	ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
	eapol_version=2
	ap_scan=0
	fast_reauth=1
	network={
		ssid=""
		key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
		eap=TLS

		ca_cert="/xxx/cacert.pem"
		client_cert="/xxx/client_cert.pem"
		private_key="/xxx/client_key.pem"
		private_key_passwd=""
	}
My Freeradius configuration :
Code:
/eap.conf :
	default_eap_type = tls
	tls {
		private_key_password = (rien)
		private_key_file = ${certdir}/server_key.pem	
		certificate_file = ${certdir}/server_cert.pem
		CA_file = ${certdir}/cacert.pem
		dh_file = ${certdir}/dh
		random_file = ${certdir}/random
	}	
/client.conf :
	client 192.168.2.1/24 {
		secret = pass
		shortname = R2
		nastype = cisco
	}
/users :
	admin	Cleartext-Password := "pass"
			Service-Type = NAS-Prompt-User,
			Cisco-AVPair = "shell:priv-lvl=15"
I create a vlan for this part : SWITCH f1/0-----eth1 Freeradius
and from the switch I can ping the VM and from the VM ping the vlan IP

My Cisco configuration :
Code:

	!

	end

Thank's a lot for your help!

Dear Julie7,
It seems that your supplicant is unathorized,
Quote:
EAPOL: Supplicant port status: Unauthorized
is the driver wired correctly installed?
have you tried with another dirver?
can you show in your wpa_supplicant configuration where is the password?
should it work wpa without password?

Yours Faithfully
M.

I have no idea... I'm in intership and just work on a computer whitout internet connexion (yihaa)
A lspci command give this device :
Code:
Ethernet controller : Broadcom Corporation ... BCM5755 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express
Quote:

I only use my host computer for the wpa_supplicant and GNS3 software, I didn't include the real device inside some config...
My network didn't have "AP", the only links are those wrote : my machine----the virtual Swicth----the VM with Freeradius.

I wanted to create a vlan for the supplicant and switch port (the EAPOL) but I didn't have more place, so I can't create another vlan

Thank's

Dear Julie7,
If you are working with VLAN you probably have more experience than me, However from the very beginning something is not clear to me.
It is basic concept
WPA (Wifi Protected Access) why are you using WPA if you are not coding your password?
Why not connect to your freeradius or your switch without passwords using an open connection?
See an example
(http://pc-freak.net/blog/how-to-conn...-on-gnu-linux/)
Are you able to use iwconfig for instance?
example:
iwconfig wlan0 essid
or in your case maybe
iwconfit eth0 "essid"
Maybe it would help if you can give a name to your essid
Your essid is the name of your net (maybe Cisco or the name that your GNS3 gives by default to the switch)

P.S.:
I apologize in advance if I am out of the topic, my experience with WPA is connecting laptop to router in Home LAN.
