AYou can configure the role on CPPM; however, the CPPM role must reference a policy name that is configured on the switch.

BYou can configure the role name on CPPM; however, the role settings, including policy and classes, must be configured locally on the switch.

CYou can configure the role, its policy, and the classes referenced in the policy all on CPPM.

DYou can configure the role and its policy on CPPM; however, the classes referenced in the policy must be configured locally on the switch.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Centralized Role Configuration on CPPM:

CPPM can assign roles to clients dynamically during authentication.

However, the actual ACL policies (e.g., firewall policies) must already exist and be referenced locally on the switch.

CPPM cannot directly configure ACL details on AOS-CX switches.

Option Analysis:

Option A: Correct. The role is defined on CPPM, but it references a policy pre-configured on the switch.

Option B: Incorrect. This does not align with Aruba's centralized role-based access control design.

Option C: Incorrect. CPPM cannot configure the ACL policies and classes directly; they must exist locally.

Option D: Incorrect. Policies can be referenced centrally but not fully configured on CPPM.
