You have an Aruba solution with multiple Mobility Controllers (MCs) and campus APs. You want to deploy a WPA3-Enterprise WLAN and authenticate users to Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) with EAP-TLS.
What is a guideline for ensuring a successful deployment?
For WPA3-Enterprise with EAP-TLS, it's crucial that clients have a trusted certificate installed for the authentication process. EAP-TLS relies on a mutual exchange of certificates for authentication. Deploying client certificates signed by a CA that CPPM trusts ensures that the ClearPass Policy Manager can verify the authenticity of the client certificates during the TLS handshake process. Trust in the root CA is typically required for the server side of the authentication process, not the client side, which is covered by the client's own certificate.
