Solutions Tech Lab

This technote builds on the previous one, where I covered how to onboard and configure Mobility Gateways running HPE Aruba Networking Wireless Operating System 10 (AOS-10).
In this technote, I’ll focus on the element profiles required to configure AOS-10 AP WLANs that operate in tunnel mode connecting to the mobility gateway cluster. The two scenarios that are covered are:

• A tunnelled 802.1X WLAN that derives dynamic user roles.
• A tunnelled guest WLAN that uses external captive portal services.

For both scenarios, I’ll use a ClearPass cluster for authentication. ClearPass will also provide the captive portal guest services for the guest WLAN.
The focus is on configuring New Central, not on the ClearPass setup. I assume ClearPass is already configured for 802.1X authentication and guest captive portal services.
