HPE6-A78 Exam - Topic 2 Question 73 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE6-A78 exam

Question #: 73
Topic #: 2

A company has an AOS controller-based solution with a WPA3-Enterprise WLAN, which authenticates wireless clients to HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM). The company has decided to use digital certificates for authentication. A user's Windows domain computer has had certificates installed on it. However, the Networks and Connections window shows that authentication has failed for the user. The Mobility Controller's (MC's) RADIUS events show that it is receiving Access-Rejects for the authentication attempt.

What is one place that you can look for deeper insight into why this authentication attempt is failing?

AThe reports generated by HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Insight

BThe RADIUS events within the CPPM Event Viewer

CThe Alerts tab in the authentication record in CPPM Access Tracker

DThe packets captured on the MC control plane destined to UDP 1812

Wait, why are they getting Access-Rejects? That’s surprising!

Seems like a classic case of certificate issues.

I’m not sure about that, the ClearPass Insight reports might have more details.

Capturing packets on the MC control plane sounds complicated, but it might help us see if the packets are being sent correctly. I'm not sure if that's the first step though.

I feel like we practiced a similar question where we had to analyze RADIUS logs. I wonder if the Event Viewer would show us more details about the Access-Rejects.

I think the Alerts tab in the CPPM Access Tracker could give us more specific insights into the authentication failures. It seems like a logical choice.

I remember we discussed the importance of checking the CPPM Event Viewer for RADIUS events, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best place to start.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. I'll start by checking the RADIUS events within the CPPM Event Viewer, and then I'll move on to the other options if I don't find what I need there.

Okay, let me think this through. I think the packets captured on the MC control plane destined to UDP 1812 might hold the key to solving this problem.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused about this one. I'm not sure where to look for the deeper insight. Maybe I should try the Alerts tab in the authentication record in CPPM Access Tracker?

This looks like a tricky one, but I think I can figure it out. I'll start by checking the RADIUS events in the CPPM Event Viewer to see if there are any clues there.

Ah, the age-old question: where do you look when your wireless authentication is in the toilet? The answer, my friends, is simple - just throw the whole network out the window and start over. Saves a lot of time in the long run.

I dunno, the packets captured on the MC control plane destined to UDP 1812 could give you some pretty juicy details. You might find something the CPPM event logs are missing.

The RADIUS events within the CPPM Event Viewer seem like the obvious choice here. That's where I'd start looking for more details on the authentication failure.
