    Hi all,
    We have a decommissioned C2000 platform  CPPM server ( 6.7.13)
    I know that there was an issue getting past version 6.8 due to network drivers  on this hardware platform, but  given that 6.11 is  now running Red Hat Enterprise 8 .. does that mean we can install 6.11 on a C2000 ?

    It depends on the hardware version of the C2000. Check here for the hardware appliance support and I noticed that the old Dell hardware based appliances seem no longer supported for ClearPass 6.11 (nor for 6.10, and if it is older generation of appliances not 6.9 either).

    Yeah,
    The original C2000 we had a few years ago were the cheapest Dell servers you could buy. Know the latest ones are Hp Proliant …. No idea which this one is …

    If you have it online, you could check the MAC address and look it up for the vendor, or see if you can connect to iLO/DRAC/IPMI to see what type of hardware it is.
