Just a quick note on this... there is a patch that was released today for CPPM
A point patch is now available for the following versions of ClearPass:
- 6.0.2 with cumulative patch 4
- 6.1.4
- 6.2.1
What does this patch do?
This patch adds support for detecting the iOS 7 captive network assistant, which is required in certain circumstances.
Do I need to install the patch?
In particular, if you have a captive portal that is used for onboarding iOS 7 devices, you should install this patch and use the "landing.php" workaround documented in the app note in order to successfully Onboard these devices.
The app note "Apple Captive Network Assistant Bypass with ClearPass Guest" has been updated; see attached. This can also be downloaded from the support site under ClearPass » Guest » Tech Notes.
How do I install the patch?
The patch is available through ClearPass Policy Manager » Administration » Agents and Software Updates » Software Updates.
It is also being uploaded to the support.arubanetworks.com download site, for those customers without direct access to the Internet or for offline distribution.
What about Amigopod 3.9?
The next maintenance release of Amigopod 3.9 (3.9.9) will also include this patch, for completeness across our entire range of supported products.
Will I need the point patch in future?
The next scheduled monthly patch for ClearPass 6.2 (6.2.2) will include this patch, as will all subsequent versions of ClearPass; this point patch is an interim solution given yesterday's worldwide release of iOS 7.
