    Hi,

     

    I am implementing CPPM and so far all good. I'd like to know if there is a way to change the status to Known automatically for clients that pass 802.1x.

     

    Example:

     

    - client connect to the network for the first time

    - client fails MAC address auth (client is unknown)

    - client immideately initiate 802.1x and passes criteria

    - [allow access profile] is applied and client gets an ip on the right vlan

     

    At this exact point I'd need something that gets the client MAC and change its status to KNOWN.

     

    I have read post authentication is the way, but i can't seem to find "post-auth" in the dropdown meneu under the [allow access profile] profile.

     

    thanks

    You can add the Profile "[Update Endpoint Known]" to the Policy, it could send several profiles as the following example:Screen Shot 2018-08-14 at 08.13.42.png
