Question sort

A customer using an Aruba Controller wants to configure it to work with ClearPass Guest.

How should ClearPass be configured as an authentication server on the controller so that guests can authenticate successfully?

  • A Add ClearPass as RADIUS CoA server.
  • B Add ClearPass as a TACACS+ authentication server.
  • C Add ClearPass as a RADIUS authentication server.
  • D Add ClearPass as a HTTPS authentication server.
Explanation

ClearPass Guest authenticates guest credentials through RADIUS. Configure ClearPass on the Aruba Controller as a RADIUS authentication server so the controller can send guest authentication requests to ClearPass. RADIUS CoA supports changes to an existing session, not the initial guest authentication.

  • D It operates as a Publisher in the same cluster as the primary Publisher when the primary is active.
  • E It operates as a Subscriber when the Publisher is active.

  • D to gather information about Aruba NADs for ClearPass
  • E to send CoA packets from ClearPass to the Aruba NAD
