hI, tnks a lot for you videos. can you explain how generate the correct certificate for captive portal and clearpass by Let's encrypt (for testing lab)?grazie
Hi, you need to create a server certificate for the controller(s) and the Common Name (CN) is needed in ClearPass as login address. You also need to add a server certificate on ClearPass and that is for HTTPS. Easiest is to generate the CSR both from the controller and ClearPass but if you understand OpenSSL then this can be used also.
Aruba Central cannot be used as datazone controller because controllers running AOS 8 are not supported in Aruba Central. Datazone controllers are either virtual or physical devices running AOS 8 and can be standalone or clusters.
Redundancy in the data zone can be accomplished either by installing a backup controller or by creating a controller cluster. The controller cluster also requires you to install another mobility conductor.
@@bhanuprasad2906 From the User Guide: Data zone now supports redundancy to avoid a long time service outage and the user can configure a backup controller or cluster for a datazone configuration. The following topologies are supported: * Data zone controllers are all standalone controllers. * The LMS in Data zone is a standalone controller, and the Backup LMS is a cluster.
* The LMS in Data zone is a cluster, and Backup LMS in Data zone is standalone. * Both the LMS and Backup LMS in a Data zone are clusters.

Trying to get a video ready by Monday Dec 13th showing how to do this with Let's Encrypt certs.
Can I use Aruba central as the datazone controller ?

Thank you John for the quick reply and your videos!
Datazone Controller is Standalone controller. how to have redundancy for Datazone controller?
Redundancy in the data zone can be accomplished either by installing a backup controller or by creating a controller cluster. The controller cluster also requires you to install another mobility conductor.
@@jcmschaap , Thank you. You mean we can have conductor-Memeber /Master-Slave for datazone controller?
