Question List

Question1: Refer to the scenario.
A customer has an AOS10 architecture that is managed by Aruba Central. Aruba infrastructure devices authenticate clients to an Aruba ClearPass cluster.
In Aruba Central, you are examining network traffic flows on a wireless IoT device that is categorized as
"Raspberry Pi" clients. You see SSH traffic. You then check several more wireless IoT clients and see that they are sending SSH also.
You want a fast way to find a list of all the IoT clients that have used SSH.
What step can you take?

Question2: A company has Aruba gateways and wants to start implementing gateway IDS/IPS. The customer has selected Block for the Fail Strategy.
What might you recommend to help minimize unexpected outages caused by using this particular fall strategy?

Question3: 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".)

Question4: Refer to the scenario.
An organization wants the AOS-CX switch to trigger an alert if its RADIUS server (cp.acnsxtest.local) rejects an unusual number of client authentication requests per hour. After some discussions with other Aruba admins, you are still not sure how many rejections are usual or unusual. You expect that the value could be different on each switch.
You are helping the developer understand how to develop an NAE script for this use case.
You are helping a customer define an NAE script for AOS-CX switches. The script will monitor statistics from a RADIUS server defined on the switch. You want to future proof the script by enabling admins to select a different hostname or IP address for the monitored RADIUS server when they create an agent from the script.
What should you recommend?

Question5: 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?

Question6: 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 line below shows the effective 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 6 is "ipv4 any any any permit'.)

Question7: 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?

Question8: 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 created a role mapping policy as shown in the exhibits below.

What is one change that you need to make to this policy?

Question9: 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?

Question10: How does Aruba Central handle security for site-to-site connections between AOS 10 gateways?

Question11: 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?

Question12: A customer requires a secure solution for connecting remote users to the corporate main site. You are designing a client-to-site virtual private network (VPN) based on Aruba VIA and Aruba MobilityControllers acting as VPN Concentrators (VPNCs). Remote users will first use the VIA client to contact the VPNCs and obtain connection settings.
The users should only be allowed to receive the settings if they are the customer's "RemoteEmployees" AD group. After receiving the settings, the VIA clients will automatically establish VPN connections, authenticating to CPPM with certificates.
What should you do to help ensure that only authorized users obtain VIA connection settings?

Question13: You are configuring gateway IDS/IPS settings in Aruba Central.
For which reason would you set the Fail Strategy to Bypass?

Question14: What is a common characteristic of a beacon between a compromised device and a command and control server?

Question15: 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?

Question16: Refer to the scenario.
An organization wants the AOS-CX switch to trigger an alert if its RADIUS server (cp.acnsxtest.local) rejects an unusual number of client authentication requests per hour. After some discussions with other Aruba admins, you are still not sure how many rejections are usual or unusual. You expect that the value could be different on each switch.
You are helping the developer understand how to develop an NAE script for this use case.
The developer explains that they plan to define the rule with logic like this:
monitor > value
However, the developer asks you what value to include.
What should you recommend?

Question17: A customer needs you to configure Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) to authenticate domain users on domain computers. Domain users, domain computers, and domain controllers receive certificates from a Windows CA. CPPM should validate these certificates and verify that the users and computers have accounts in Windows AD. The customer requires encryption for all communications between CPPM and the domain controllers.
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 these requirements?

Question18: Several AOS-CX switches are responding to SNMPv2 GET requests for the public community. The customer only permits SNMPv3. You have asked a network admin to fix this problem. The admin says, "I tried to remove the community, but the CLI output an error." What should you recommend to remediate the vulnerability and meet the customer's requirements?

Question19: Refer to the exhibit.

Which security issue is possibly indicated by this traffic capture?

Question20: A company has an Aruba ClearPass server at 10.47.47.8, FQDN radius.acnsxtest.local. This exhibit shows ClearPass Policy Manager's (CPPM's) settings for an Aruba Mobility Controller (MC).

The MC is already configured with RADIUS authentication settings for CPPM, and RADIUS requests between the MC and CPPM are working. A network admin enters and commits this command to enable dynamic authorization on the MC:
aaa rfc-3576-server 10.47.47.8
But when CPPM sends CoA requests to the MC, they are not working. This exhibit shows the RFC 3576 server statistics on the MC:

How could you fix this issue?

Question21: Refer to the scenario.
# Introduction to the customer

# 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?

Question22: Refer to the scenario.
This customer is enforcing 802.1X on AOS-CX switches to Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM). The customer wants switches to download role settings from CPPM. The "reception-domain" role must have these settings:
- Assigns clients to VLAN 14 on switch 1, VLAN 24 on switch 2, and so on.
- Filters client traffic as follows:
- Clients are permitted full access to 10.1.5.0/24 and the Internet
- Clients are denied access to 10.1.0.0/16
The switch topology is shown here:

How should you configure the VLAN setting for the reception role?

Question23: Refer to the exhibit.

Which IP address should you record as a possibly compromised client?

Question24: When would you implement BPDU protection on an AOS-CX switch port versus BPDU filtering?

Question25: You are working with a developer to design a custom NAE script for a customer. The NAE agent should trigger an alert when ARP inspection drops packets on a VLAN. The customer wants the admins to be able to select the correct VLAN ID for the agent to monitor when they create the agent.
What should you tell the developer to do?
