Primary user role: Configured on switch
Secondary user role: Configured on controller
• Both primary and secondary role can be either statically configured or downloaded from the ClearPass.
NOTE: This feature is only available for:
•
•
The Aruba switch downloads user policies from ClearPass using downloadable user roles. This makes the
ClearPass a centralized point to administer user policy to the access switch and minimize user configuration on
the Aruba switch. For downloadable user roles to work appropriately, the signing Certificate Authority (CA) of the
ClearPass HTTPS certificate must be added to the Aruba switch and marked as trusted. With ArubaOS-Switch
16.08, there is an automated way to download the CA certificate of ClearPass. Please refer to the Access
Security Guide on using this feature.
