  CHECK ARUBA CLEARPASS SERIAL NUMBER Today we are Going to learn how to check the serial number of a Aruba Clearpass this is useful because you need this to submit license and also if you raise a support ticket they ask the serial number of your CPPM. below i mention the steps  1. log into your ClearPass appliance using WebUI 2. In the Dashboard click on OS version of Clearpass 3. in the Dialog box you can find the serial number  Thanks!!!! Lets meet with another blog        

We need to Integrate Active Directory with ClearPass when we doing EAP-PEAP authentication otherwise if we using EAP-TLS its not need to add AD server to Clearpass Go to Server Configuration and then select your Clearpass Server from the list and then Select Join AD Domian   Then Filled the AD server Information and in here it needs AD server Administrator User name and Password   Now we Success fully add the AD server to Clearpass now we I ll configure the AD server as a Authentication Source for the Clearpass For that Go to Authentication ---- Source   and click Add   Give the name for the Clearpass and select type as a Active Directory from the drop down list  In the Primary Tab you have to give the information of your clearpass server in here you need a service type account for bind DN this is used for read the directory attributes from the AD server   In the attribute click edit and modify tab and from here you can define witch attribute you need

                        In today’s Network Administrators face Huge challenge to manage Guest Access, Corporate Access, IoT devices and BYOD. Aruba ClearPass Appliance is the Tool that will help you to manage Those things in your network. ClearPass will work as a Network Access Control in the Network (NAC). ClearPass Use Cases * Unified Access From Centralized Location you can manage all of your policies of your Network, no need to configure from your edge switch side * Guest Access Solution ClearPass has variety of method to manage guest users they have tools for the manage guest * BYOD Solution ClearPass maintain highly secure TLS method for BYOD solution, they have Personal BYOD portal that users can register their devices * Non AAA Access For manage IoT devices we can use ClearPass the devices that don’t have any authentication method we can use ClearPass Profiler option to profile that device for correct profile.  

How to Configure Spanning Tree root bridge Hi Today we going to talk about how to configure STP Root bridge, Root bridge election is happening with the switchers in the network, To become a root there should be some qualification among switchers, they are, bridge priority Lowest MAC  default bridge priority is  32769   this is tie among switchers then root elect using lowest MAC to change default root configure switch like below Switch#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)# Switch(config)#sp Switch(config)#spanning-tree vl Switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan 1 ? priority Set the bridge priority for the spanning tree root Configure switch as root <cr> Switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan 1 ro Switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan 1 root ? primary Configure this switch as primary root for this sp

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)                                    Hi After some brake today I gone to talk about spanning tree protocol or STP, When the network expand we need some redundant connection from switch to switch because of stop network fail.                  When we deal with redundant connection It automatically create loops. As a result of loops our network create broadcast storms .                                             To prevent this we use STP. when we talking about STP we need to look at various features like  Root port Designated port Block port Bridge Priority   etc... STP is huge section in Networking from today we'll learn about this STP. My next lesson is how to identify this port types in STP. so keep in touch with me. Happy Learning !!!
