CX 6100 no command for Downloadable User Roles

  • 1.  CX 6100 no command for Downloadable User Roles

    Posted Jul 15, 2021 06:44 AM
    Hi all,

    we wanted to implement Downloadable User Roles on CX 6100 switches. However the clearpass-username and clearpass-password commands seem to be missing.

    There is no statemant of limitation in the general CX guide:
    https://www.arubanetworks.com/techdocs/AOS-CX/10.06/HTML/5200-7723/index.html#GUID-127BB408-11C4-454C-B886-58BBDE5305DA.html

    The problem is also, that the old 2540 switches, which the 6100 should replace, support DUR.
    Is this feature coming any time soon?

    Thanks,
    Bjarne


    Edit:
    Also, DHCP Snooping seems to be also not supported. But this is a Layer-2 security feature and also it is supported by 2540...

    Downloadable user roles are not supported on the 6100's.

    Andy is correct! Downloadable user roles is support from 6200 series

    so Aruba advertises 6100 as successor of 2540 and 6000 as successor of 2530, but they don't have the same feature set.

    what about dhcp snooping? that's also just not supported?

    I couldn't find a switch feature matrix, does it exist somewhere? like for the Procurve switches

    I just found this page, too. 
    Strange to sort DHCP snooping into L3 security, imho it is a L2 feature, but that is hair splitting.

    It's also strange that in the table it says that 6100 is not supported in Central, but our customer uses Central to manage all their 6100. Well, it's only Template groups, but it's Central.
