Options

  • ACreate a TA profile on the ArubaOS-Switches with the root CA certificate for ClearPass's HTTPS
  • BCreate device fingerprinting profiles on the ArubaOS-Switches that include SNMP. and apply the
  • CCreate remote mirrors on the ArubaOS-Swrtches that collect traffic on edge ports, and mirror it to
  • DCreate SNMPv3 users on ArubaOS-CX switches, and make sure that the credentials match those

Explanation

To configure the infrastructure to support network scans as part of the ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) solution, creating SNMPv3 users on ArubaOS-CX switches is necessary. Ensuring that the credentials for these SNMPv3 users match those configured on CPPM is crucial for enabling CPPM to perform network scans effectively. SNMPv3 provides a secure method for network management by offering authentication and encryption, which are essential for safely conducting scans that classify endpoints by type. This configuration allows CPPM to communicate securely with the switches and gather necessary data without compromising network security.
