HP HPE7-A02 Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Contextual Exchange for Better Decisions:

HPE Aruba ClearPass can integrate with third-party solutions like MDM and firewalls to exchange contextual information about endpoints (e.g., device type, posture, location).

This integration allows ClearPass and the third-party solutions to make better access control and security decisions.

For example:

An MDM can inform CPPM about device compliance, and CPPM can adjust enforcement policies dynamically.

Firewalls can receive updated context about users and devices to enforce policies more effectively.

Option Analysis:

Option A: Correct. Exchanging contextual information improves access control decisions.

Option B: Incorrect. CPPM does not provide signature-based threat detection.

Option C: Incorrect. CPPM does not offload policy decisions; it integrates for collaboration.

Option D: Incorrect. CPPM does not replace third-party traffic filtering capabilities.

When establishing a cluster of HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass servers, it is recommended to install a CA-signed certificate for HTTPS on the Subscriber before it joins the cluster. This ensures secure communication between the servers in the cluster and provides a trusted certificate for client connections.

1.HTTPS Security: A CA-signed certificate for HTTPS ensures that all web-based communication to and from the ClearPass server is encrypted and secure.

2.Cluster Communication: Secure communication between ClearPass nodes in the cluster is essential for synchronization and data integrity.

3.Client Trust: Clients accessing the ClearPass server will trust the CA-signed certificate, avoiding security warnings and ensuring smooth operations.

RADIUS Accounting:

RADIUS accounting enables network devices to report client session details (e.g., IP addresses, session duration, bandwidth usage) to CPPM.

Interim updates ensure CPPM receives ongoing updates about the client’s session, enabling accurate tracking.

Option Analysis:

Option A: Incorrect. Syslog logging sends general system logs, not client session details.

Option B: Incorrect. Dynamic authorization (CoA) handles session changes but does not provide usage tracking.

Option C: Correct. RADIUS accounting with interim updates tracks client IP addresses and bandwidth utilization.

Option D: Incorrect. IF-MAP interfaces are used for metadata sharing, not for RADIUS-based tracking.
