This is because a parameter is a variable that can be defined and modified by the user or the script, and can be used to customize the behavior and output of the NAE script. A parameter can be referred to by using the syntax self ^ramsfname], where ramsfname is the name of the parameter.

By defining a parameter for the RADIUS server, you can make the NAE script more flexible and adaptable to different scenarios and switches. The parameter can be set to a default value, such as cp.acnsxtest.local, but it can also be changed by the user or the script based on the network conditions and requirements. For example, the user can select a different hostname or IP address for the monitored RADIUS server when they create an agent from the script, or the script can automatically detect and update the parameter based on the switch configuration. This way, the NAE script can monitor statistics from any RADIUS server defined on the switch without hard-coding the server name or IP address in the monitor URI.

A. Use this variable, %{radius-ipV when defining the monitor URI in the NAE agent script. This is not a valid recommendation because %{radius-ipV is not a valid variable in NAE scripts. Variables in NAE scripts are prefixed with self ^ramsfname], not with %. Moreover, radius-ipV is not a predefined variable that contains the RADIUS server name or IP address, but rather a generic term that could refer to any IP version.

C. Use a callback action to collect the name of any RADIUS servers defined on the switch at the time the agent is created. This is not a bad recommendation, but it is not as good as defining a parameter. A callback action is a feature that allows an NAE script to execute a command on the switch and collect its output for further processing or display. A callback action can be used to collect the name of any RADIUS servers defined on the switch by executing a command such as show radius-server or show running-config radius-server and parsing its output. However, a callback action might not be as fast or reliable as using a parameter, as it depends on the availability and responsiveness of the switch and its CLI.

D. Make the script editable so that admins can edit it on demand when they are creating scripts. This is not a good recommendation because making the script editable exposes it to potential errors or modifications that could affect its functionality or performance. Making the script editable also requires more effort and expertise from the admins, who might not be familiar with NAE scripting syntax or logic. Moreover, making the script editable does not future proof it, as it does not allow for dynamic changes or updates based on network conditions or requirements.

This option allows CPPM to receive real-time information about the network activity and security posture of the clients from the firewall, and then apply appropriate enforcement actions based on the configured policies 12. For example, if a client is detected to be infected with malware or violating the network usage policy, CPPM can quarantine or disconnect the client from the network 2.

 This is because an Endpoint Context Server (ECS) is a feature that allows ClearPass to receive contextual information from external sources, such as Aruba Central, and use it for policy enforcement and reporting. An ECS can be configured to point to the Aruba Central API and fetch data such as device type, category, OS, applications, traffic flows, etc.

An ECS can be used to communicate the information that an IoT client has used SSH to Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM). The ECS can query the Aruba Central API and retrieve the network traffic flows of the wireless IoT devices that are categorized as “Raspberry Pi” clients. The ECS can then filter the traffic flows by the SSH protocol and send the relevant information to CPPM. CPPM can then use this information for policy decisions, such as allowing or denying SSH access, or triggering alerts or actions.

B. On CPPM enable Device Insight integration. This is not a valid step because Device Insight is a feature that allows ClearPass to discover, profile, and fingerprint devices on the network using deep packet inspection (DPI) and machine learning (ML). Device Insight does not communicate with Aruba Central or receive information from it. Moreover, Device Insight might not be able to detect SSH traffic on encrypted wireless IoT devices without decrypting it first.

C. On Central configure APs and gateways to use CPPM as the RADIUS accounting server. This is not a valid step because RADIUS accounting is a feature that allows network devices to send periodic updates about the status and activity of authenticated users or devices to a RADIUS server, such as CPPM. RADIUS accounting does not communicate with Aruba Central or receive information from it. Moreover, RADIUS accounting might not be able to capture SSH traffic on wireless IoT devices without inspecting it first.

D. On Central set up CPPM as a Webhook application. This is not a valid step because Webhook is a feature that allows Aruba Central to send notifications or events to external applications or services using HTTP requests. Webhook does not communicate with CPPM or send information to it. Moreover, Webhook might not be able to send SSH traffic information on wireless IoT devices without filtering it first.

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.

Aruba Central supports site-to-site VPNs between AOS 10 gateways, which are Aruba devices that provide routing, firewall, and VPN functions. Aruba Central can automatically provision and manage the site-to-site VPNs using the VPN Manager feature. The VPN Manager allows you to create VPN groups that consist of one or more hubs and branches, and define the VPN settings for each group1

Aruba Central uses IPsec as the protocol to secure the site-to-site connections between the AOS 10 gateways. IPsec is a standard protocol that provides encryption, authentication, and integrity for IP packets. Aruba Central automatically establishes IPsec tunnels for all site-to-site connections using keys that are securely distributed by Central. The keys are generated by Central and pushed to the gateways using a secure channel. The keys are rotated periodically to enhance security2
