                      HP Aruba Certified Network Security Expert Written Sample Questions:
                      Question #1

                      Refer to the scenario.
                      # Introduction to the customer
                      You are helping a company add Aruba ClearPass to their network, which uses Aruba network infrastructure devices.
                      The company currently has a Windows domain and Windows CA. The Window CA issues certificates to domain computers, domain users, and servers such as domain controllers. An example of a certificate issued by the Windows CA is shown here.


                      The company is in the process of adding Microsoft Endpoint Manager (Intune) to manage its mobile clients.
                      The customer is maintaining the on-prem AD for now and uses Azure AD Connect to sync with Azure AD.
                      # Requirements for issuing certificates to mobile clients
                      The company wants to use ClearPass Onboard to deploy certificates automatically to mobile clients enrolled in Intune. During this process, Onboard should communicate with Azure AD to validate the clients. High availability should also be provided for this scenario; in other words, clients should be able to get certificates from Subscriber 2 if Subscriber 1 is down.
                      The Intune admins intend to create certificate profiles that include a UPN SAN with the UPN of the user who enrolled the device.
                      # Requirements for authenticating clients
                      The customer requires all types of clients to connect and authenticate on the same corporate SSID.
                      The company wants CPPM to use these authentication methods:
                      * EAP-TLS to authenticate users on mobile clients registered in Intune
                      * TEAR, with EAP-TLS as the inner method to authenticate Windows domain computers and the users on them To succeed, EAP-TLS (standalone or as a TEAP method) clients must meet these requirements:
                      Their certificate is valid and is not revoked, as validated by OCSP
                      The client's username matches an account in AD
                      # Requirements for assigning clients to roles
                      After authentication, the customer wants the CPPM to assign clients to ClearPass roles based on the following rules:
                      * Clients with certificates issued by Onboard are assigned the "mobile-onboarded" role
                      * Clients that have passed TEAP Method 1 are assigned the "domain-computer" role Clients in the AD group "Medical" are assigned the "medical-staff" role Clients in the AD group "Reception" are assigned to the "reception-staff" role The customer requires CPPM to assign authenticated clients to AOS firewall roles as follows:
                      * Assign medical staff on mobile-onboarded clients to the "medical-mobile" firewall role
                      * Assign other mobile-onboarded clients to the "mobile-other" firewall role
                      * Assign medical staff on domain computers to the "medical-domain" firewall role
                      * All reception staff on domain computers to the "reception-domain" firewall role
                      * All domain computers with no valid user logged in to the "computer-only" firewall role
                      * Deny other clients access
                      # Other requirements
                      Communications between ClearPass servers and on-prem AD domain controllers must be encrypted.
                      # Network topology
                      For the network infrastructure, this customer has Aruba APs and Aruba gateways, which are managed by Central. APs use tunneled WLANs, which tunnel traffic to the gateway cluster. The customer also has AOS-CX switches that are not managed by Central at this point.

                      # ClearPass cluster IP addressing and hostnames
                      A customer's ClearPass cluster has these IP addresses:
                      * Publisher = 10.47.47.5
                      * Subscriber 1 = 10.47.47.6
                      * Subscriber 2 = 10.47.47.7
                      * Virtual IP with Subscriber 1 and Subscriber 2 = 10.47.47.8
                      The customer's DNS server has these entries
                      * cp.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.5
                      * cps1.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.6
                      * cps2.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.7
                      * radius.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.8
                      * onboard.acnsxtest.com = 10.47.47.8
                      The customer has now decided that it needs CPPM to assign certain mobile-onboarded devices to a
                      "nurse-call" AOS user role. These are mobile-onboarded devices that are communicating with IP address
                      10.1.18.12 using port 4343.
                      What are the prerequisites for fulfilling this requirement?

                      • A. Creating a tag on Central to select the proper destination connection and integrating CPPM with Device Insight
                      • B. Setting up traffic classes and role mapping rules within Central's global settings
                      • C. Creating server-based role assignment rules on gateways that apply roles to clients based on traffic destinations
                      • D. Creating server-based role assignment rules on APs that apply roles to clients based on traffic destinations

                      Correct Answer: C  🗳️

                      Question #2

                      A customer has an AOS 10-based mobility solution, which authenticates clients to Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM). The customer has some wireless devices that support WPA2 in personal mode only.
                      How can you meet these devices' needs but improve security?

                      • A. Enable dynamic authorization (RFC 3576) in the AAA profile for the devices.
                      • B. Use MPSK on the WLAN to which the devices connect.
                      • C. Connect these devices to the same WLAN to which 802.1X-capable clients connect, using MAC-Auth fallback.
                      • D. Configure WIDS policies that apply extra monitoring to these particular devices.

                      Question #3

                      Refer to the scenario.
                      A hospital has an AOS10 architecture that is managed by Aruba Central. The customer has deployed a pair of Aruba 9000 Series gateways with Security licenses at each clinic. The gateways implement IDS/IPS in IDS mode.
                      The Security Dashboard shows these several recent events with the same signature, as shown below:

                      Which step could give you valuable context about the incident?

                      • A. Find the Central client profile for the threat sources and note their category and family.
                      • B. View the RAPIDS Security Dashboard and see if the threat sources are listed as rogues.
                      • C. View firewall sessions on the APs and record the threat sources' type and OS.
                      • D. View the user-table on APs and record the threat sources' 802.11 settings.

                      Question #4

                      You are working with a developer to design a custom NAE script for a customer. The NAE agent should trigger an alert when ARP inspection drops packets on a VLAN. The customer wants the admins to be able to select the correct VLAN ID for the agent to monitor when they create the agent.
                      What should you tell the developer to do?

                      • A. Create multiple monitors within the script from which admins can select when they create the agent.
                      • B. Use this variable, %{vlan-id} when defining the monitor URI in the NAE agent script.
                      • C. Use a callback action to collect the ID of the VLAN on which admins have enabled NAE monitoring.
                      • D. Define a VLAN ID parameter; reference that parameter when defining the monitor URI.
