  • 1.  ClearPass On-demand Static endpoint profiling

    Posted Mar 13, 2021 01:07 AM
    Hi Experts!!

    I have a question. I have IP cameras with static IP addresses so I want to authenticate them with MAC Authentication + Profiling.
    How can I configure ClearPass to do an SNMP or NMAP scan to that device (IP camera) at the moment in which it tries to connect to the network?

    Kindly:
    Carlos Villanueva

    I haven't played with that in a while but I believe what you are looking for is using the "OnDemand Endpoint Scan" context server action.

    https://www.arubanetworks.com/techdocs/ClearPass/6.9/PolicyManager/Content/CPPM_UserGuide/Enforce/EPHTTP_Based.htm

    You will have to pack that in your enforcement policy to trigger after a successful authentication. I believe the most reliable approach is to use a "Session-Notify" enforcement profile to trigger the action as it will wait for an IP address to be updated in the database and then trigger action (Framed-IP-Address). You will need accounting enabled for that to work I believe (well should be on by default anyways).

    That sounds interesting, but unfortunately I'm failing at the implementation so far. Can you describe in more detail what type of enforcement profiles with which attributes and values ​​you use to trigger the Endpoint Scan? How do you select the correct HTTP Context Server Action? Which one is it?

    Thanks, Andreas

    You should consider an external profiling utility instead.  Like Aruba Central Device Insights or Ordr.
