    If a customer is using Microsoft Enterprise CA and domain autoenrollment for pushing certificates to clients and/or Intune Endpoint Manager, does the customer still need to license the onboard license ?

    Also, if customer decides to use Microsoft Intune Endpoint Manager for BYOD onboarding and one enables the Clearpass Intune Extensions, one still needs the Clearpass Onboard license ?

    Not sure on the first, but you do not need an OnBoard license to utilise the Intune Extension. You may also wish to check the Entry/Access requirements.

    The Entry license does not include support for theTACACS+authentication and endpoint profiling features supported by the Access license. Entry licenses also donotsupport non-Local host endpoint context servers orPolicy Managerextensions

    Onboard licenses are consumed for every use that has one or more client certificates in the internal CA of ClearPass. If you enroll client certificates outside ClearPass and from another CA than ClearPass, you will not need Onboard licenses. This stands apart from the question to use extensions, which are included in Access Licensing.

    So the answer to the first question is no.
    For the second question, if the certificates are provisioned through Intune, and not generated by ClearPass as a CA, no Onboard licenses are needed either.

    Please validate with your partner, or local Aruba SE if you need a legally binding answer.
