Hello All,

after trying couple of things to solve my problem and
being unsuccess, I wanted to get an oppinion of an expert
to solve my problem.

The problem is following: I am having a Cisco AP 1100
and a Cisco WLAN PCMCIA card PCM352. I wanted to set up
a 802.1x authentication scenario with them. I am trying
with RADIUS server as authentication server and xsupplicant
at client side. The thing is, I am checking for the respective
Accesspoint and assosiating with it to communicate and
starting xsupplicant with 802.1x process.

As soon as I get assosiated AP is sending me a Request.
Now Xsupplicant is starting EAPoL to which AP is sending
again a Request, to which the Xsupplicant is sending an
answer. But the AP is telling that the Response ID is not
matching with the Request ID.

Question: How can I tell to AP that it should ONLY send
a request if EAPoL Start is sent and not, if I just insert
my card into the PCMCIA slot.

I would be happy if you can help me in this point, as I
am not able to solve this since couple of days.

Thanking you in advance

are you using cisco ACS? what version? Also this sounds like somewhere you are using EAP-TLS, you would need a certificate for this. you might want to check all your settings.

Response ID is not
matching with the Request ID.

sounds like its accidently setup to use a CA server, if your using EAP-TLs you need server side auth so the aCS server needs a cert as well as the client. also when getting the cert for the client you need to be logged in as the same username you intend to use when going in over wireless.
