HP Exam HPE7-A02 Topic 13 Question 14 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE7-A02 exam
Question #: 14
Topic #: 13
[All HPE7-A02 Questions]

A company wants to apply role-based access control lists (ACLs) on AOS-CX switches, which are implementing authentication to HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM). The company wants to centralize configuration as much as possible. Which correctly describes your options?

Show Suggested Answer Hide 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.

That's a good point, but I still think having some configuration on the switch is necessary for flexibility.

I disagree, I believe option C is the most efficient as it allows for configuring everything on CPPM.

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

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

I think option A is the best choice because it allows for centralized configuration while still referencing a policy on the switch.
