# WLAN support Supported modes authenticating via WLAN: * **WPA-Personal** (WPA-PSK)\ authentication via preshared key (psk) * **WPA-Enterprise** (WPA-802.1x) with **EAP-TLS**\ authentication via client certificates (eap-tls) Which method is used is determined by the variable `wlan` Choices: * `"none"` <- (default) * `"psk"` * `"eap-tls"` ## WPA-Personal ### Requirements WLAN with configured WPA-Personal (WPA-PSK) ### Configuration / Variables * **wlan** Authentication mode Type: *String* Values: * "none" <-- (default) * "psk" <-- set to use WPA-Personal * "eap-tls" * **wlan_ssid** SSID of used WLAN Type: *String* * **wlan_password** Password of WLAN. Only for `wlan: "psk"` Type: *String* ### Examples #### One class of devices with wlan access inventory.yml ```yaml laptop: hosts: 10.0.13.[1-28]: vars: wlan: "psk" wlan_ssid: "devicesPSK" wlan_password: "topsecretpasswd" ``` #### Two device classes with different wlan access inventory.yml ```yaml laptop_students: hosts: 10.0.13.[1-28]: vars: wlan: "psk" wlan_ssid: "Students" wlan_password: "topsecretpasswd1" laptop_teachers: hosts: 10.0.23.[1-82]: vars: wlan: "psk" wlan_ssid: "Teachers" wlan_password: "topsecretpasswd2" ``` ## WPA-Enterprise with EAP-TLS Authentication is based on individual certificates, which will be automaticaly created on the radius server. Every devices gets his own certificate. When creating new certificates, the old one will be revoked. ### Requirements * You need to run a freeradius server. For installation see https://codeberg.... * The user, running this playbook, must have access to the radius-Server via ssh. ### Configuration / Variables * **wlan** Authentication mode Type: *String* Values: * "none" <-- (default) * "psk" * "eap-tls" <-- set to use WPA Enterprise with EAP-TLS * **wlan_ssid** SSID of used WLAN Type: *String* * **wlan_eap_ca** CA data for certs and crl Type: *Dictionary of Strings* Keys: * C <-- default: "DE" * ST <-- default: "Baden-Wuerttemberg" * L <-- default: "Reutlingen" * O <-- default: "Linuxschule" * emailAddress <-- default: "admin@example.com" * CN <-- default: "Radius Certificate Authority" * password <-- default: "OtherVerySecurePassw0rd" * **wlan_force_issue** Force to issue a new certificate Only for `wlan: "eap-tls"` Type: *Bolean* Values: * true * false <-- (default) ### Examples inventory.yml: ```yaml infrastructure: hosts: radius_server: ansible_host: 10.0.0.15 ansible_user: ansible laptop: vars: wlan: "eap-tls" wlan_ssid: "devices8021x" wlan_eap_ca: C: "DE" ST: "Baden-Wuerttemberg" L: "Reutlingen" O: "Linuxschule" emailAddress: "admin@example.com" CN: "Radius Certificate Authority" password: "secret4radiusCA" ``` ## complex example with both modes We have three groups of devices (one with psk, two with eap-tls): inventory.yml ```yaml all: vars: wlan_ssid: "WLAName" # teacher and staff are using the same ssid radiusca_password: "secret4radiusCA" country_name: "DE" state_or_province_name: "Baden-Württemberg" locality_name: "Stuttgart" organization_name: "Baumschule" admin_email: "admin@example.com" infrastructure: hosts: radius_server: ansible_host: 10.0.0.15 ansible_user: ansible laptop_students: hosts: 10.0.13.[1-28]: vars: wlan: "psk" wlan_ssid: "Students" # ssid "WLAN" from group "all" will be overwritten wlan_password: "topsecretpasswd" laptop_teachers: hosts: 10.0.23.[1-82]: vars: wlan: "eap-tls" laptop_staff: hosts: 10.0.61.[1-20]: vars: wlan: "eap-tls" ``` ## example: Force issue of new certs The issue of certificates can be forced. Force issue of new certs for hosts in group laptop_teacher. If there is a valid certificate, the old one will be revoked and a new certificate will be issued. ansible-playbook -i myinventory.yml -l laptop_teachers lmn-client.yml -e "wlan_force_issue=true"
