Re: Looking for Captive Portal Authentication Product

["Brock, Anthony - NET" <Anthony.Brock () OREGONSTATE EDU>]

Greg,
 
We currently use Cisco Clean Access for this. It authenticates against
our radius which is backed against an LDAP. Unfortunately, we are a
layer-2 campus which means that our authentication is primarily through
MAC (not the fault of the CCA, just our current choices for campus
authentication).
 
So far I am quite pleased with the technology. What I'm not pleased with
is the cost. Let me know what you discover on the Juniper and any other
technologies. We would be very interested in your experiences.
 
Thanks!
 
Tony

Product
        
        

        Portland Community College is looking for a Captive Portal
authentication solution that uses LDAP.  We intend to use this solution
for wireless authentication initially and may also use it for the wired
ports at some point in the future.  We are seriously considering the new
Juniper Infranet Controller 4000 (IC4000) Appliance in conjunction with
SSG 140 Enforcer Appliance.  Does anyone have experience with this
product?  Thanks.
