  • 1.  Maximum Number of Connection per User Account

    Posted Jul 10, 2017 03:15 AM

    Hi Guys,

     

    Is there an option on Aruba Mobility Controller where I can set a number maximum connection per User Account (802.1x). The client would like to limit the usage of 2 devices per user account.

     

    Your help will very much appreciated. Thank you in advance!

     

    Regards,

    You can do this with ClearPass but I don't believe you can with just a controller.

    Thank you. I also thought there's no option using only the mobility controller. Thank you for the response.

    You would need a Policy Engine (Radius Server like ClearPass) that keeps track of clients via radius accounting to limit this.  The controller by itself cannot do that with 802.1x clients.

    Yeah. I also thought I need a NAC device to do it. I have scan all the authentication button and I have found nothing. Thanks!
