Assign filter-id based on LDAP group

I'm setting up Cloudpath for an EAP-TLS-only network.  I'm authenticating against an LDAP directory, and I'm looking to assign a different filter-id to users based on their LDAP group (faculty, students, etc.) so that I can assign them to different roles and on my Aruba wireless controller.  What's the best way of accomplishing this?

I figured it out in the end. I needed to add a split in the workflow after login and before certificate installation. When you first create it, it doesn't give you the option to set a filter, but once you've created the split if you go back and edit it gives the option to filter by LDAP attributes. It was pretty straightforward after that. I couldn't find any good tutorial online, so I may come back here and add one if I get some time.

Hello, I also have the same question, I can not find any doc online, Could you please help to show how to assign a role to users after split by their LDAP group?

1. In the workflow, edit the split and go to Filters & Restrictions > User-Based Filters>Group Name Pattern.  Add your LDAP group names to filter against, using a vertical bar to separate if more than one (i.e., Group1|Group2). This creates the split by LDAP group.

2. Create a Radius Attribute Group for each part of the split.  Go to Configuration > Policies > Add Radius Attribute Group.  Under Attributes you will see options, including VLAN ID and Filter ID. If you are using Ruckus AP's, you can assign the vlan directly. If using another vendor you may need to set a Filter ID instead.

3. Create a policy at Configuration > Policies > Add Policy that uses the attribute group.

4. Go to Certificate Authority > Manage Templates > Certificate templates and add or edit the template to be used for users in each part of that split. Under RADIUS Policies > RADIUS Policies > Actions click + Assign Policy and select the RADIUS policy you created in step 3.

5. Use this certificate template in your workflow under the appropriate split.

If you are using Ruckas AP's, you're done. If you are using another vendor, you will have to configure it to assign policies, etc. based on the filter id that Cloudpath returns.

thank you very much,I‘ll try that!
