Now your Cisco 1130 LAP will join to AC-Tube. Remember that the
Cisco LAP will lose the installed certificate after rebooting.
If you want to use a Cisco LAP without installing on it your own
ca certificate, which is lost after each reboot, you can sign your
certificate with a Cisco intermediate ca certificate as explained
in the next section.
Get a Cisco AP out of the box connected to AC-Tube
==================================================
If you want to use a Cisco AP without installing your own CA
certificate on it, which is lost after each reboot, you have to
use a certificate with AC-Tube, that is signed by a CA, where the
CA certificate is already installed on the AP.
To create such a certificate a Cisco WLC uses an intermediate CA
certificate, witch is signed by this root CA certificate, installed
on the AP.
If you have both, the intermediate CA certificate with an
appropriate private key and the CA certificate, which is installed
on the AP, you can create such a certificate like a Cisco WLC does,
by icopying them to the ./cisco sub-directory, using the
following names:
cisco-root-ca.crt: the CA certificate,
cisco-ca.crt: intermediate CA certificate
cisco-ca.key: private key.
All files have to be in PEM format.
Now run the script
./mkcert_cisco.sh
witch creates two files:
ac_cisco.pem
ac_cisco.key
When you get asked for a password, use always the same. The chosen
password is not imported. You don't need it later.
Now you can modify ac.conf to use the certificate and and key:
ssl_key=../../ssl/ac_cisco.key
ssl_cert=../../ssl/ac_cisco.pem
And a Cisco AP will now join AC-Tube without any modifications!
If you experience with other Cisco LAPs (e.g. 1141), please tell me.
