Hi,
I am new to CPPM and would like to get help from others.
The requirment of the tasks as below,
- The end devices (servers, printers, and etc) are configured by the static IP addresses
- Certification has been installed on the devices
- No profiled yet but after authentication, the VLAN will be assigned to the device and be profied into the right category
I have a few questions
1. When the static IP already assigned on the device, what is the best way to use authentication method?
Adding all static IP addresses into Active Directory under 'computer' and use AD for authentication method with devices' IP or MAC address save on the AD?
or
Using Static Host List from 'Device' menu on CPPM by adding IP or MAC address and use authentication method? I found that 'belongs to group' is selected, then 'Static Host List' save with IP based won't be available (only MAC address list is avalable)
2. Can I use 'certification' installed on the devices as authentication method combined with above (AD or Static Host List)? please show me how to.
3. How can CPPM allocate the correct VLAN per device group (Server, printer and etc)?
4. How can the devices be profiled ater completing task above?
Thanks in advance.
