The document discusses five steps to building a faster, smarter wireless LAN network. It begins by covering the first step of providing faster Wi-Fi by upgrading to the 802.11ac wireless standard. It describes how 802.11ac provides wider channels, more spatial streams, and higher order modulation to increase bandwidth and throughput. It also discusses some examples of 802.11ac throughputs achieved in testing. The document then moves to the second step of planning the network architecture and considerations for deploying a controller-based or controllerless system.

- 48. Evolving Auth/Authz needs New policy and AAA dynamics – No longer just authenticating Windows domain devices. – Use of more 802.1X to lock down open ports/SSIDs. – Meeting SSO requirements for cloud applications (e.g. SAML, Okta). Why context for fine grained Authorization – Ability to layer multiple authorization rules and conditions. – Leverages context stored in a variety of 3rd party systems. HUNTING FOR FASTER, SMARTER WI-FI? YOU’RE IN GOOD COMPANY
- 49. Challenges with legacy RADIUS Visibility and troubleshooting – No capability to profile devices connecting to the network. – No contextual awareness (e.g. posture, device type, asset type). – Poor per session troubleshooting tools and logs. Scalability and reliability – Limited performance to handle EAP termination or higher loads. – Poor active clustering technology and centralized management. Narrow feature sets – Limited to core AAA, TACACS+ (ACS/SBR products are EOL/EOS) HUNTING FOR FASTER, SMARTER WI-FI? YOU’RE IN GOOD COMPANY
- 50. Network Policy Best Practices Most organizations do a fair job of authentication (who the user is) -- But, a poor job of authorization (what the user is allowed to do based on context) 1. Profile and authenticate everything that connects to your network. 2. Place ClearPass close to Active Directory or other Identity/Context servers to reduce latency. 3. Leverage context to provide fine grained authorization. 4. Utilize access infrastructure that supports CoA and role based access control versus VLAN segmentation. 5. Use standards based protocols for enhanced network security. HUNTING FOR FASTER, SMARTER WI-FI? YOU’RE IN GOOD COMPANY
