HPE6-A88 Exam - Topic 4 Question 12 Discussion

A network administrator is configuring a corporate network enforcement policy. The policy includes rules for corporate-issued laptops, MDM-enabled tablets, and personal smart devices. However, the administrator notices that some clients are failing all rules due to a lack of profile data. What should the administrator do to ensure these unprofiled clients can access the profiler collectors and receive a profile using best practices?
A) Add a rule that identifies clients without profiles and assigns them a role allowing limited access to the profiler.
B) Increase the frequency of profile data updates from the endpoint profiler.
C) Set the default enforcement profile to 'Allow Access' for all unprofiled clients.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Best practice for profiling is to never grant full access by default. Instead, the enforcement policy should include a fallback rule for unprofiled devices. This rule assigns a 'Limited Access' or 'Quarantine' role that allows only DHCP and HTTP traffic. This allows the device to communicate just enough to trigger the profiler collectors (like DHCP fingerprinting), after which the device can be re-authenticated with the correct role.

I've seen this issue before, option A is the best practice for sure!

Wait, can unprofiled clients really get access? That seems risky...

Increasing profile update frequency (option B) might help too!

I disagree, option C could lead to security risks.

I practiced a similar question where we had to manage unprofiled devices, and I think the best practice was to assign them a role. So, I’m leaning towards A.

Setting the default enforcement profile to 'Allow Access' sounds risky. I think it could lead to security issues, but I can't recall if it’s option C or not.

I feel like increasing the frequency of profile updates could help, but I’m not confident if that’s the right answer here. It seems more like a workaround than a solution.

I think I remember something about allowing limited access for unprofiled clients. It might be option A, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best approach.
