Hi,

we currently have 1 Mobility Master that is managing 2 Mobility Controllers. The controllers are active/active.

I need to buy the SSL cert. for the Captive Portal authentication.

How many cert. do we need? Just 1 for the MM that will push the cert. to the controllers?

1+1 cert. for both controllers? Or 3 cert. one for each controller + master?

OS version: 8.2

 

Thank you very much for any possible response

For captive portal authentication , you only need 1 cert that can be use on all your controllers



Thank you

Pardon typos sent from Mobile

Thank you a lot Victor.

By the way, the captive portal will not be internally but on ClearPass, I hope this won't change anything

Just to add, take a look at the CPPM Cert tech note as well. Contains lots of good info and explanations.

Sounds like you already have the cert on the ClearPass server and just want to know what you need on the controller? Both will need to have a certificate, you can use the same cert if you use Subject Alternative Name (SAN) certs and specify cppm.yourdomain.com and controller.yourdomain.com, some other options covered in the link below.
