NEW QUESTION # 25
Refer to the scenario.
A customer has an Aruba ClearPass cluster. The customer has AOS-CX switches that implement 802.1X authentication to ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM).
Switches are using local port-access policies.
The customer wants to start tunneling wired clients that pass user authentication only to an Aruba gateway cluster. The gateway cluster should assign these clients to the "eth-internet" role. The gateway should also handle assigning clients to their VLAN, which is VLAN 20.
The plan for the enforcement policy and profiles is shown below:
The gateway cluster has two gateways with these IP addresses:
* Gateway 1
o VLAN 4085 (system IP) = 10.20.4.21
o VLAN 20 (users) = 10.20.20.1
o VLAN 4094 (WAN) = 198.51.100.14
* Gateway 2
o VLAN 4085 (system IP) = 10.20.4.22
o VLAN 20 (users) = 10.20.20.2
o VLAN 4094 (WAN) = 198.51.100.12
* VRRP on VLAN 20 = 10.20.20.254
The customer requires high availability for the tunnels between the switches and the gateway cluster. If one gateway falls, the other gateway should take over its tunnels. Also, the switch should be able to discover the gateway cluster regardless of whether one of the gateways is in the cluster.
You are setting up the UBT zone on an AOS-CX switch.
Which IP addresses should you define in the zone?
- A. [Primary controller = 198.51.100.14; backup controller = 10.20.4.21
- B. Primary controller = 10 20 4 21: backup controller not defined
- C. Primary controller = 10.20.4.21; backup controller = 10.20.4.22
- D. Primary controller = 10.20.20.254; backup controller, not defined
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
To configure user-based tunneling (UBT) on an AOS-CX switch, you need to specify the IP addresses of the mobility gateways that will receive the tunneled traffic from the switch 1. The primary controller is the preferred gateway for the switch to establish a tunnel, and the backup controller is the alternative gateway in case the primary controller fails or becomes unreachable 1. The IP addresses of the gateways should be their system IP addresses, which are used for inter-controller communication and cluster discovery 2.
In this scenario, the customer has a gateway cluster with two gateways, each with a system IP address on VLAN 4085. Therefore, the switch should use these system IP addresses as the primary and backup controllers for UBT. The IP addresses of the gateways on VLAN 20 and VLAN 4094 are not relevant for UBT, as they are used for user traffic and WAN connectivity, respectively 2. The VRRP IP address on VLAN 20 is also not applicable for UBT, as it is a virtual IP address that is not associated with any specific gateway 3.
Therefore, the best option is to use 10.20.4.21 as the primary controller and 10.20.4.22 as the backup controller for UBT on the switch. This will ensure high availability and cluster discovery for the tunneled traffic from the switch to the gateway cluster 12.

NEW QUESTION # 27
Refer to the scenario.
A customer requires these rights for clients in the "medical-mobile" AOS firewall role on Aruba Mobility Controllers (MCs):
Permitted to receive IP addresses with DHCP
Permitted access to DNS services from 10.8.9.7 and no other server
Permitted access to all subnets in the 10.1.0.0/16 range except denied access to 10.1.12.0/22 Denied access to other 10.0.0.0/8 subnets Permitted access to the Internet Denied access to the WLAN for a period of time if they send any SSH traffic Denied access to the WLAN for a period of time if they send any Telnet traffic Denied access to all high-risk websites External devices should not be permitted to initiate sessions with "medical-mobile" clients, only send return traffic.
The exhibits below show the configuration for the role.
There are multiple issues with this configuration. What is one change you must make to meet the scenario requirements? (In the options, rules in a policy are referenced from top to bottom. For example,
"medical-mobile" rule 1 is "ipv4 any any svc-dhcp permit," and rule 8 is "ipv4 any any any permit".)
- A. In the "medical-mobile" policy, change the subnet mask in rule 3 to 255.255.248.0.
- B. In the "medical-mobile" policy, move rules 2 and 3 between rules 7 and 8.
- C. In the "medical-mobile" policy, change the source in rule 8 to "user."
- D. Move the rule in the "apprf-medical-mobile-sacl" policy between rules 7 and 8 in the "medical-mobile" policy.
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION # 28
Refer to the scenario.
A customer is migrating from on-prem AD to Azure AD as its sole domain solution. The customer also manages both wired and wireless devices with Microsoft Endpoint Manager (Intune).
The customer wants to improve security for the network edge. You are helping the customer design a ClearPass deployment for this purpose. Aruba network devices will authenticate wireless and wired clients to an Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) cluster (which uses version 6.10).
The customer has several requirements for authentication. The clients should only pass EAP-TLS authentication if a query to Azure AD shows that they have accounts in Azure AD. To further refine the clients' privileges, ClearPass also should use information collected by Intune to make access control decisions.
You are planning to use Azure AD as the authentication source in 802.1X services.
What should you make sure that the customer understands is required?
- A. Windows 365 subscriptions
- B. CPPM's RADIUS certificate was imported as trusted in the Azure AD directory
- C. Azure AD Domain Services
- D. An app registration on Azure AD that references the CPPM's FQDN
Answer: D
NEW QUESTION # 29
A customer has an AOS 10-based mobility solution, which authenticates clients to Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM). The customer has some wireless devices that support WPA2 in personal mode only.
How can you meet these devices' needs but improve security?
- A. Use MPSK on the WLAN to which the devices connect.
- B. Configure WIDS policies that apply extra monitoring to these particular devices.
- C. Enable dynamic authorization (RFC 3576) in the AAA profile for the devices.
- D. Connect these devices to the same WLAN to which 802.1X-capable clients connect, using MAC-Auth fallback.
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION # 30
What is a common characteristic of a beacon between a compromised device and a command and control server?
- A. Use of less common protocols such as SNAP
- B. Lack of encryption
- C. Periodic transmission of small, identically sized packets
- D. Use of IPv6 addressing instead of IPv4 addressing
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
A beacon is a type of network traffic that is sent from a compromised device to a command and control (C2) server, which is a remote system that controls the malicious activities of the device . A beacon is used to establish and maintain communication between the device and the C2 server, as well as to receive instructions or exfiltrate data .
A common characteristic of a beacon is that it is periodic, meaning that it is sent at regular intervals, such as every few minutes or hours . This helps the C2 server to monitor the status and availability of the device, as well as to avoid detection by network security tools .
Another common characteristic of a beacon is that it is small and identically sized, meaning that it contains minimal or fixed amount of data, such as a simple acknowledgment or a random string . This helps the device to conserve bandwidth and resources, as well as to avoid detection by network security tools .
NEW QUESTION # 31
A customer wants CPPM to authenticate non-802.1X-capable devices. An admin has created the service shown in the exhibits below:
What is one recommendation to improve security?
- A. Using Active Directory as the authentication source
- B. Creating and using a custom MAC-Auth authentication method
- C. Enabling caching of posture and roles
- D. Adding an enforcement policy rule that denies access to endpoints with the Conflict flaq
Answer: B
NEW QUESTION # 32
A customer has an AOS 10-based mobility solution, which authenticates clients to Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM). The customer has some wireless devices that support WPA2 in personal mode only.
How can you meet these devices' needs but improve security?
- A. Use MPSK on the WLAN to which the devices connect.
- B. Configure WIDS policies that apply extra monitoring to these particular devices.
- C. Enable dynamic authorization (RFC 3576) in the AAA profile for the devices.
- D. Connect these devices to the same WLAN to which 802.1X-capable clients connect, using MAC-Auth fallback.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
MPSK (Multi Pre-Shared Key) is a feature that allows assigning different pre-shared keys (PSKs) to different devices or groups of devices on the same WLAN. MPSK improves security over WPA2 in personal mode, which uses a single PSK for all devices on the WLAN. With MPSK, you can create and manage multiple PSKs, each with its own role, policy, and expiration date. You can also revoke or change a PSK for a specific device or group without affecting other devices on the WLAN. MPSK is compatible with devices that support WPA2 in personal mode only, as they do not need to support any additional protocols or certificates.
To use MPSK on the WLAN to which the devices connect, you need to enable MPSK in the WLAN settings and configure the PSKs in Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM). You can find more information about how to configure MPSK in the [Configuring Multi Pre-Shared Key - Aruba] page and the [ClearPass Policy Manager User Guide] . The other options are not correct because they either do not improve security or are not applicable for devices that support WPA2 in personal mode only. For example, configuring WIDS policies that apply extra monitoring to these particular devices would not prevent them from being compromised or spoofed, but rather detect and mitigate potential attacks. Connecting these devices to the same WLAN to which 802.1X-capable clients connect, using MAC-Auth fallback, would not provide strong authentication or encryption, as MAC addresses can be easily spoofed or captured. Enabling dynamic authorization (RFC 3576) in the AAA profile for the devices would not affect the authentication process, but rather allow CPPM to change the attributes or status of a user session on the controller without requiring re-authentication.

NEW QUESTION # 34
Refer to the exhibit.
Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) is using the settings shown in the exhibit. You reference the tag shown in the exhibit in enforcement policies related to NASes of several types, including Aruba APs, Aruba gateways, and AOS-CX switches.
What should you do to ensure that clients are reclassified and receive the correct treatment based on the tag?
- A. Change the RADIUS action to [Aruba Wireless - Bounce Switch Port] which is supported by all the NASes in question.
- B. Change the RADIUS action to [Aruba Wireless -Terminate Session] which is supported by all the NASes in question.
- C. Enable profiling in each service using one of these enforcement profiles. Set the profiling action to the correct one for the NASes using that service.
- D. Set the Tags Update Action to No Action. Then instead enable the RADIUS CoAs using enforcement profiles in the rules that match clients with the tag shown in the exhibit.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
According to the ClearPass Policy Manager User Guide1, the tag shown in the exhibit is a Device Insight tag, which is used to classify and identify devices based on their behavior and characteristics. Device Insight tags can be used as conditions in enforcement policies to apply different actions or roles to devices based on their tags. However, in order to ensure that devices are reclassified and receive the correct treatment based on their tags, profiling must be enabled in each service that uses one of these enforcement profiles. Profiling is a feature that allows ClearPass to dynamically discover and profile devices on the network, and update their attributes and tags accordingly. Profiling also allows ClearPass to send RADIUS Change of Authorization (CoA) messages to the network access servers (NASes) that control the access of the devices, and instruct them to reauthenticate or terminate the sessions of the devices that have changed their tags. The profiling action must be set to the correct one for the NASes using that service, as different NASes may support different types of CoA messages. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
NEW QUESTION # 35
A customer has an AOS 10 architecture, which includes Aruba APs. Admins have recently enabled WIDS at the high level. They also enabled alerts and email notifications for several events, as shown in the exhibit.
Admins are complaining that they are getting so many emails that they have to ignore them, so they are going to turn off all notifications.
What is one step you could recommend trying first?
- A. Send the email notifications directly to a specific folder, and only check the folder once a week.
- B. Disable just the Rogue AP and Client Attack Detected alerts, as they overlap with the Infrastructure Attack Detected alert.
- C. Disable email notifications for Roque AP, but leave the Infrastructure Attack Detected and Client Attack Detected notifications on.
- D. Change the WIDS level to custom, and enable only the checks most likely to indicate real threats.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
According to the AOS 10 documentation1, WIDS is a feature that monitors the radio spectrum for the presence of unauthorized, rogue access points and the use of wireless attack tools. WIDS can be configured at different levels, such as low, medium, high, or custom. The higher the level, the more checks are enabled and the more alerts are generated. However, not all checks are equally relevant or indicative of real threats. Some checks may generate false positives or unnecessary alerts that can overwhelm the administrators and reduce the effectiveness of WIDS.
Therefore, one step that could be recommended to reduce the number of email notifications is to change the WIDS level to custom, and enable only the checks most likely to indicate real threats. This way, the administrators can fine-tune the WIDS settings to suit their network environment and security needs, and avoid getting flooded with irrelevant or redundant alerts. Option C is the correct answer.
Option A is incorrect because sending the email notifications directly to a specific folder and only checking the folder once a week is not a good practice for security management. This could lead to missing or ignoring important alerts that require immediate attention or action. Moreover, this does not solve the problem of getting too many emails in the first place.
Option B is incorrect because disabling email notifications for Rogue AP, but leaving the Infrastructure Attack Detected and Client Attack Detected notifications on, is not a sufficient solution. Rogue APs are unauthorized access points that can pose a serious security risk to the network, as they can be used to intercept or steal sensitive data, launch attacks, or compromise network performance. Therefore, disabling email notifications for Rogue APs could result in missing critical alerts that need to be addressed.
Option D is incorrect because disabling just the Rogue AP and Client Attack Detected alerts, as they overlap with the Infrastructure Attack Detected alert, is not a valid assumption. The Infrastructure Attack Detected alert covers a broad range of attacks that target the network infrastructure, such as deauthentication attacks, spoofing attacks, denial-of-service attacks, etc. The Rogue AP and Client Attack Detected alerts are more specific and focus on detecting and classifying rogue devices and clients that may be involved in such attacks.
Therefore, disabling these alerts could result in losing valuable information about the source and nature of the attacks.

o VLAN 4094 (WAN) = 198.51.100.12
* VRRP on VLAN 20 = 10.20.20.254
The customer requires high availability for the tunnels between the switches and the gateway cluster. If one gateway falls, the other gateway should take over its tunnels. Also, the switch should be able to discover the gateway cluster regardless of whether one of the gateways is in the cluster.
What is one change that you should make to the solution?
- A. Configure the UBT solution to use VLAN extend mode.
- B. Configure edge ports in VLAN trunk mode.
- C. Remove VLAN assignments from role configurations on the gateways.
- D. Change the ubt-client-vlan to VLAN 13.
Answer: C
NEW QUESTION # 37
You want to use Device Insight tags as conditions within CPPM role mapping or enforcement policy rules.
What guidelines should you follow?
- A. Use the Endpoint type for the rule conditions; no extra authorization source is required for services that use policies with these rules.
- B. Use the Application type for the rule conditions; no extra authorization source is required for services that use policies with these rules.
- C. Create an HTTP authentication source to the Central API that queries for the tags. To use that source as the type for rule conditions, add it an authorization source for the service in question.
- D. Use the Endpoints Repository type for the rule conditions; Add Endpoints Repository as a secondary authentication source for services that use policies with these rules.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
According to the Aruba Cloud Authentication and Policy Overview1, Device Insight tags are stored in the Endpoint Repository and can be used as conditions within CPPM role mapping or enforcement policy rules.
The rule condition type should be Endpoint, and the attribute should be Device Insight Tags. No extra authorization source is required for services that use policies with these rules. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.
Option A is incorrect because creating an HTTP authentication source to the Central API is not necessary to use Device Insight tags as conditions. Device Insight tags are already synchronized between Central and CPPM, and can be accessed from the Endpoint Repository.
Option B is incorrect because using the Application type for the rule conditions is not applicable to Device Insight tags. The Application type is used to match attributes from the Application Authentication source, which is used to integrate with third-party applications such as Microsoft Intune or Google G Suite.
Option C is incorrect because using the Endpoints Repository type for the rule conditions is not valid for Device Insight tags. The Endpoints Repository type is used to match attributes from the Endpoints Repository source, which is different from the Endpoint type. The Endpoints Repository source contains information about endpoints that are manually added or imported into CPPM, while the Endpoint type contains information about endpoints that are dynamically discovered and profiled by CPPM or Device Insight. Adding Endpoints Repository as a secondary authentication source for services that use policies with these rules is also unnecessary and redundant.
NEW QUESTION # 38
Refer to the scenario.
A customer is using an AOS 10 architecture with Aruba APs and Aruba gateways (two per site). Admins have implemented auto-site clustering for gateways with the default gateway mode disabled. WLANs use tunneled mode to the gateways.
The WLAN security is WPA3-Enterprise with authentication to an Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) cluster VIP. RADIUS communications use RADIUS, not RadSec.
For which devices does CPPM require network device entries?
- A. ForAP clusters'virtual IP addresses
- B. Forgateways' actual IP addresses and dynamic authorization VRRP addresses
- C. For APs' actual IP addresses
- D. For gateways' actual IP addresses and AP clusters' virtual IP addresses for dynamic authorization
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) requires network device entries for the devices that communicate with it using RADIUS or TACACS+ protocols. In this scenario, the gateways are the devices that act as RADIUS clients and send authentication requests to CPPM for the WLAN users. Therefore, CPPM needs to have network device entries for the gateways' actual IP addresses and the shared secrets that match the ones configured on the gateways.
Additionally, CPPM also requires network device entries for the gateways' dynamic authorization VRRP addresses, which are used for sending CoA messages to the gateways. CoA messages are used to change the attributes or status of a user session on the gateways without requiring re-authentication. For example, CPPM can use CoA to apply policies, roles, or bandwidth limits based on various conditions. To enable VRRP IP addresses for dynamic authorization, you need to set up gateway clusters manually and assign a VRRP VLAN and a VRRP IP address to each cluster. This way, CPPM can use the VRRP IP address as the NAS IP address for RADIUS communications and CoA messages. The VRRP IP address will remain the same even if the active gateway in the cluster changes due to a failover event, ensuring seamless operations.

NEW QUESTION # 40
Refer to the scenario.
# Introduction to the customer
You are helping a company add Aruba ClearPass to their network, which uses Aruba network infrastructure devices.
The company currently has a Windows domain and Windows CA. The Window CA issues certificates to domain computers, domain users, and servers such as domain controllers. An example of a certificate issued by the Windows CA is shown here.

The company is in the process of adding Microsoft Endpoint Manager (Intune) to manage its mobile clients.
The customer is maintaining the on-prem AD for now and uses Azure AD Connect to sync with Azure AD.
# Requirements for issuing certificates to mobile clients
The company wants to use ClearPass Onboard to deploy certificates automatically to mobile clients enrolled in Intune. During this process, Onboard should communicate with Azure AD to validate the clients. High availability should also be provided for this scenario; in other words, clients should be able to get certificates from Subscriber 2 if Subscriber 1 is down.
The Intune admins intend to create certificate profiles that include a UPN SAN with the UPN of the user who enrolled the device.
# Requirements for authenticating clients
The customer requires all types of clients to connect and authenticate on the same corporate SSID.
The company wants CPPM to use these authentication methods:
EAP-TLS to authenticate users on mobile clients registered in Intune
TEAR, with EAP-TLS as the inner method to authenticate Windows domain computers and the users on them To succeed, EAP-TLS (standalone or as a TEAP method) clients must meet these requirements:
Their certificate is valid and is not revoked, as validated by OCSP
The client's username matches an account in AD
# Requirements for assigning clients to roles
After authentication, the customer wants the CPPM to assign clients to ClearPass roles based on the following rules:
Clients with certificates issued by Onboard are assigned the "mobile-onboarded" role Clients that have passed TEAP Method 1 are assigned the "domain-computer" role Clients in the AD group "Medical" are assigned the "medical-staff" role Clients in the AD group "Reception" are assigned to the "reception-staff" role The customer requires CPPM to assign authenticated clients to AOS firewall roles as follows:
Assign medical staff on mobile-onboarded clients to the "medical-mobile" firewall role Assign other mobile-onboarded clients to the "mobile-other" firewall role Assign medical staff on domain computers to the "medical-domain" firewall role All reception staff on domain computers to the "reception-domain" firewall role All domain computers with no valid user logged in to the "computer-only" firewall role Deny other clients access
# Other requirements
Communications between ClearPass servers and on-prem AD domain controllers must be encrypted.
# Network topology
For the network infrastructure, this customer has Aruba APs and Aruba gateways, which are managed by Central. APs use tunneled WLANs, which tunnel traffic to the gateway cluster. The customer also has AOS-CX switches that are not managed by Central at this point.
# ClearPass cluster IP addressing and hostnames
A customer's ClearPass cluster has these IP addresses:
Publisher = 10.47.47.5
Subscriber 1 = 10.47.47.6
Subscriber 2 = 10.47.47.7
Virtual IP with Subscriber 1 and Subscriber 2 = 10.47.47.8
The customer's DNS server has these entries
cp.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.5
cps1.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.6
cps2.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.7
radius.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.8
onboard.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.8
You have imported the root certificate for the Windows CA to the ClearPass CA Trust list.
Which usages should you add to it based on the scenario requirements?
- A. LDAP and Aruba infrastructure
- B. EAP and AD/LDAP Server
- C. Radsec and Aruba infrastructure
- D. EAP and Radsec
Answer: B

o VLAN 4094 (WAN) = 198.51.100.12
* VRRP on VLAN 20 = 10.20.20.254
The customer requires high availability for the tunnels between the switches and the gateway cluster. If one gateway falls, the other gateway should take over its tunnels. Also, the switch should be able to discover the gateway cluster regardless of whether one of the gateways is in the cluster.
Assume that you are using the "myzone" name for the UBT zone.
Which is a valid minimal configuration for the AOS-CX port-access roles?
- A. port-access role internet-only gateway-zone zone myzone gateway-role eth-internet
- B. port-access role internet-only gateway-zone zone myzone gateway-role eth-internet vlan access 20
- C. port-access role eth-internet gateway-zone zone myzone gateway-role eth-internet vlan access 20
- D. port-access role eth-internet gateway-zone zone myzone gateway-role eth-user
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The UBT solution requires that the edge ports on the switches are configured in VLAN trunk mode, not access mode. This is because the UBT solution uses a special VLAN (VLAN 4095 by default) to encapsulate the user traffic and tunnel it to the gateway. The edge ports need to allow this VLAN as well as any other VLANs that are used for management or control traffic. Therefore, the edge ports should be configured as VLAN trunk ports and allow the necessary VLANs1
NEW QUESTION # 42
The customer needs a way for users to enroll new wired clients in Intune. The clients should have limited access that only lets them enroll and receive certificates. You plan to set up these rights in an AOS-CX role named "provision." The customer's security team dictates that you must limit these clients' Internet access to only the necessary sites. Your switch software supports IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for the rules applied in the "provision" role.
What should you recommend?
- A. Configuring the "provision" role as a downloadable user role (DUR) in CPPM
- B. Assigning the "provision" role to a VLAN and then setting up the rules within a Layer 2 access control list (ACL)
- C. Enabling tunneling to the MCs on the "provision" role and then setting up the privileges on the MCs
- D. Configuring the rules for the "provision" role with IPv6 addresses, which tend to be more stable
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
This is because a downloadable user role (DUR) is a feature that allows the switch to use a central ClearPass server to download user-roles to the switch for authenticated users12 A DUR can contain various attributes and rules that define the access level and privileges of the user, such as VLAN, ACL, PoE, reauthentication period, etc3 A DUR can also be customized and updated on the ClearPass server without requiring any changes on the switch1 A DUR can be used to create a "provision" role that allows users to enroll new wired clients in Intune. The
"provision" role can have limited access that only lets them enroll and receive certificates from the Intune service. The "provision" role can also have rules that restrict the Internet access of the users to only the necessary sites, such as the Intune portal and the certificate authority. The rules can be based on IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, depending on the network configuration and preference2
A: Configuring the rules for the "provision" role with IPv6 addresses, which tend to be more stable. This is not a valid recommendation because it does not address how to create and apply the "provision" role on the switch. Moreover, IPv6 addresses do not necessarily tend to be more stable than IPv4 addresses, as both protocols have their own advantages and disadvantages4
B: Enabling tunneling to the MCs on the "provision" role and then setting up the privileges on the MCs. This is not a valid recommendation because it does not explain how to enable tunneling or what MCs are. Moreover, tunneling is a technique that encapsulates one network protocol within another, which adds complexity and overhead to the network communication5
D: Assigning the "provision" role to a VLAN and then setting up the rules within a Layer 2 access control list (ACL). This is not a valid recommendation because it does not explain how to assign a role to a VLAN or how to create a Layer 2 ACL on the switch. Moreover, a Layer 2 ACL is limited in its filtering capabilities, as it can only match on MAC addresses or Ethernet types, which might not be sufficient for restricting Internet access to specific sites

NEW QUESTION # 44
A company has Aruba gateways that are Implementing gateway IDS/IPS in IDS mode. The customer complains that admins are receiving too frequent of repeat email notifications for the same threat. The threat itself might be one that the admins should investigate, but the customer does not want the email notification to repeat as often.
Which setting should you adjust in Aruba Central?
- A. The allowlist settings in the IDS policy
- B. Report scheduling settings
- C. The IDS policy setting (strict, medium, or lenient)
- D. Alert duration and threshold settings
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
Alert duration and threshold settings are used to control how often and under what conditions email notifications are sent for gateway IDS/IPS events 1. By adjusting these settings, the customer can reduce the frequency of repeat email notifications for the same threat, while still being informed of any critical or new threats.
To adjust the alert duration and threshold settings in Aruba Central, the customer can follow these steps 1:
In the Aruba Central app, set the filter to Global, a group, or a device.
Under Analyze, click Alerts & Events.
Click the Config icon to open the Alert Severities & Notifications page.
Select the Gateway IDS/IPS tab to view the alert categories and severities for gateway IDS/IPS events.
Click on an alert category to expand it and view the alert duration and threshold settings for each severity level.
Enter a value in minutes for the alert duration. This is the time period during which the alert is active and email notifications are sent.
Enter a value for the alert threshold. This is the number of times the alert must be triggered within the alert duration before an email notification is sent.
Click Save.
By increasing the alert duration and/or threshold values, the customer can reduce the number of email notifications for recurring threats, as they will only be sent when the threshold is reached within the duration.
For example, if the customer sets the alert duration to 60 minutes and the alert threshold to 10 for a Critical severity level, then an email notification will only be sent if the same threat occurs 10 times or more within an hour.

Refer to the scenario.
A customer requires these rights for clients in the "medical-mobile" AOS firewall role on Aruba Mobility Controllers (MCs):
Permitted to receive IP addresses with DHCP
* Permitted access to DNS services from 10.8.9.7 and no other server
* Permitted access to all subnets in the 10.1.0.0/16 range except denied access to 10.1.12.0/22

- D. Move the rule in the "apprf-medical-mobile-sacl" policy between rules 7 and 8 in the "medical-mobile" policy.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
Rules 6 and 7 in the "medical-mobile" policy are used to deny access to the WLAN for a period of time if the clients send any SSH or Telnet traffic, as required by the scenario. However, these rules are currently placed below rule 5, which permits access to the Internet for any traffic. This means that rule 5 will override rules 6 and 7, and the clients will not be denied access to the WLAN even if they send SSH or Telnet traffic.
To fix this issue, rules 6 and 7 should be moved to the top of the list, before rule 5. This way, rules 6 and 7 will take precedence over rule 5, and the clients will be denied access to the WLAN if they send SSH or Telnet traffic, as expected.
NEW QUESTION # 46
You need to install a certificate on a standalone Aruba Mobility Controller (MC). The MC will need to use the certificate for the Web UI and for implementing RadSec with Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager. You have been given a certificate with these settings:
Subject: CN=mc41.site94.example.com
* No SANs
* Issuer: CN=ca41.example.com
EKUs: Server Authentication, Client Authentication
What issue does this certificate have for the purposes for which the certificate is intended?
- A. It specifies domain info in the CN field instead of the DC field.
- B. It has conflicting EKUs.
- C. It is issued by a private CA.
- D. It lacks a DNS SAN.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
A DNS SAN (Subject Alternative Name) is an extension of the X.509 certificate standard that allows specifying additional hostnames or IP addresses that the certificate can be used for. A DNS SAN is useful for validating the identity of the server or client that presents the certificate, especially when the common name (CN) field does not match the hostname or IP address of the server or client.
In this case, the certificate has a CN of mc41.site94.example.com, which is the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the standalone Aruba Mobility Controller (MC). However, this CN may not match the hostname or IP address that the MC uses for the Web UI or for implementing RadSec with Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager. For example, if the MC uses a different FQDN, such as mc41.example.com, or an IP address, such as 192.168.1.41, for these purposes, then the certificate would not be valid for them. Therefore, the certificate should have a DNS SAN that includes all the possible hostnames or IP addresses that the MC may use for the Web UI and RadSec.
NEW QUESTION # 47
A customer has an AOS 10-based solution, including Aruba APs. The customer wants to use Cloud Auth to authenticate non-802.1X capable IoT devices.
What is a prerequisite for setting up the device role mappings?
- A. Configuring Device Insight (client profile) tags in Central
- B. Integrating Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) and Device Insight
- C. Creating global role-to-role firewall policies in Central
- D. Configuring a NetConductor-based fabric
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
According to the Aruba Cloud Authentication and Policy Overview1, one of the prerequisites for configuring Cloud Authentication and Policy is to configure Device Insight (client profile) tags in Central. Device Insight tags are used to identify and classify IoT devices based on their behavior and characteristics. These tags can then be mapped to client roles, which are defined in the WLAN configuration for IAPs2. Client roles are used to enforce role-based access policies for the IoT devices. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
Option A is incorrect because NetConductor is not related to Cloud Authentication and Policy. NetConductor is a cloud-based network management solution that simplifies the deployment and operation of Aruba Instant networks.
Option C is incorrect because integrating Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) and Device Insight is not a prerequisite for setting up the device role mappings. CPPM and Device Insight can work together to provide enhanced visibility and control over IoT devices, but they are not required for Cloud Authentication and Policy.
Option D is incorrect because creating global role-to-role firewall policies in Central is not a prerequisite for setting up the device role mappings. Global role-to-role firewall policies are used to define the traffic rules between different client roles across the entire network, but they are not required for Cloud Authentication and Policy.
NEW QUESTION # 48
You are reviewing an endpoint entry in ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) Endpoints Repository.
What is a good sign that someone has been trying to gain unauthorized access to the network?
- A. The entry shows a profile conflict of having a new profile of Computer for a profiled Printer.
- B. The entry shows multiple DHCP options under the fingerprints.
- C. The entry shows an Unknown status.
- D. The entry lacks a hostname or includes a hostname with long seemingly random characters.
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION # 49
A customer has an AOS 10 architecture, consisting of Aruba AP and AOS-CX switches, managed by Aruba Central. The customer wants to obtain information about the clients, such as their general category and OS.
What should you explain?
- A. The customer should set up a dedicated switch VSX group to sniff packets and direct them to Aruba Central.
- B. You will need to set up Aruba Central as a secondary IP helper for client VLANs, but this will not interfere with existing operations.
- C. Aruba Central will automatically derive this information using telemetry from the Aruba devices.
- D. The customer must deploy Aruba gateways in order to receive any client profiling information.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
Aruba Central can provide visibility and profiling of clients using the Client Insights feature, which is an AI-powered solution that uses native infrastructure telemetry to identify and classify clients based on their OS and general category. This feature does not require any additional hardware or software, such as gateways, IP helpers, or packet sniffers. It works by collecting and analyzing data from the Aruba APs and AOS-CX switches that are managed by Aruba Central. You can find more information about Client Insights in the Visibility and profiling solutions | HPE Aruba Networking page and the Clients Profile - Aruba page.
