I have been testing with Clarity and installed the separate Clarity Engine. I have two questions concerning Clarity.
- Synthetic: I did multiple tests, but all results in one of these two error messages: Failed: Failed to establish gre & websocket connection with syntheticAP or Failed: Aborting due to AP keepalive timeout.
I see the following error logs:

Could the wired IEEE 802.1x authentication for the access-points be a possible explaination for this problem?
- Authentication time: I notice that authentication times are always red, when authenticating against ClearPass via EAP-PEAP and ClearPass uses Active Directory to authenticate the users. Is this behavior default, or do I need to tweek ClearPass or Active Directory to get better authentication times? Authentication times are perfect when using the controller as authentication server and authentication times are "better" when using local users on ClearPass.
