What is the best solution to resolve this error?

AYou need to include the root and intermediate certificates in the captive portal certificate for your access points

BYou need to De connected to the guest SSiD while testing.

CYou need to change the Login Address in ClearPass to securelogin arubanetworKs.com

DYou need to include the root and intermediate certificates in the captive portal certificate for your gateway

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

Including the root and intermediate certificates in the captive portal certificate for the gateway will resolve the error seen during the login action after successful registration. This is necessary to ensure the SSL/TLS handshake can be completed successfully, as the client browser needs to validate the entire certificate chain.

I definitely remember the need for certificates, but I’m torn between options A and D. Which one is specifically for the access points versus the gateway?

Hmm, this is a tough one. I'm leaning towards option D, as it seems to directly address the issue with the captive portal certificate. But I'll double-check the other options just to be sure.

Based on the error message, it looks like the issue is with the captive portal certificate not including the necessary root and intermediate certificates. I'd go with option A or D.

I remember we discussed the importance of certificates in our last practice session, but I'm not sure if it's the captive portal certificate or the gateway certificate that needs the root and intermediate ones.

I'm a bit confused by this question. The error message doesn't seem to match the options very well. I'll need to re-read the question and options carefully.
