Question 1

Your Director of Security asks you to assign AOS-CX switch management roles to new employees based on their specific job requirements

After the configuration was complete, it was noted that a user assigned with the administrators role did not have the appropriate level of

access on the switch.

The user was not limited to viewing nonsensitive configuration information and a level of 1 was not assigned to their role Which default management role should have

been assigned for the user?

  1. Option A:

    sysadmin

  2. Option B:

    operators

  3. Option C:

    helpdesk

  4. Option D:

    config

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

The default management role that should have been assigned for the user is B. operators.

The operators user role is a predefined role that allows users to view nonsensitive configuration information on the switch, such as interfaces,

VLANs, routing protocols, statistics, and more. The operators user role has a privilege level of 1, which is the lowest level of access on

the switch 1 .

The administrators user role is a predefined role that has full access to all switch configuration information and all REST API methods. This role is more than what the Director of Security requires 1 .

Question 2 (choose 2)

A customer is looking Tor a wireless authentication solution for all of their loT devices that meet the following requirements

- The wireless traffic between the IoT devices and the Access Points must be encrypted

- Unique passphrase per device

- Use fingerprint information to perform role-based access

Which solutions will address the customer ' s requirements? (Select two.)

  1. Option A:

    MPSK and an internal RADIUS server

  2. Option B:

    MPSK Local with MAC Authentication

  3. Option C:

    ClearPass Policy Manager

  4. Option D:

    MPSK Local with EAP-TLS

  5. Option E:

    Local User Derivation Rules

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C, D

The correct answers are C and D.

MPSK (Multi Pre-Shared Key) is a feature that allows multiple PSKs to be used on a single SSID, providing device-specific or group-specific passphrases for enhanced security and deployment flexibility for headless IoT devices 1 . MPSK requires MAC authentication against a ClearPass Policy Manager server, which returns the encrypted passphrase for the device in a RADIUS VSA 2 . ClearPass Policy Manager is a platform that provides role- and device-based network access control for any user across any wired, wireless and VPN infrastructure 3 . ClearPass Policy Manager can also use device profiling and posture assessment to assign roles based on device fingerprint information 4 .

MPSK Local is a variant of MPSK that allows the user to configure up to 24 PSKs per SSID locally on the device, without requiring ClearPass Policy Manager 5 . MPSK Local can be combined with EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol-Transport Layer Security), which is a secure authentication method that uses certificates to encrypt the wireless traffic between the IoT devices and the access points 6 . EAP-TLS can also use device certificates to perform role-based access control 6 .

Therefore, both ClearPass Policy Manager and MPSK Local with EAP-TLS can meet the customer’s requirements for wireless authentication, encryption, unique passphrase, and role-based access for their IoT devices.

MPSK and an internal RADIUS server is not a valid solution, because MPSK does not support internal RADIUS servers and requires ClearPass Policy Manager 7 8 9 . MPSK Local with MAC Authentication is not a valid solution, because MAC Authentication does not encrypt the wireless traffic or use fingerprint information for role-based access 2 . Local User Derivation Rules are not a valid solution, because they do not provide unique passphrase per device or use fingerprint information for role-based access 10 11 12 .
