HPE Aruba Certified WAN Associate (ACWA) — Question 7

ClearPass receives fingerprinting profile data for a client device that is based on MAC OUI, NMAP, DHCP, and OnGuard.
Which fingerprint or fingerprints are used?

Answer options

• A. NMAP because it is actively obtained
• B. The last fingerprint gathered
• C. OnGuard because it is application based
• D. All fingerprints are applied

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because NMAP fingerprints are actively gathered, providing real-time data about the device. The other options do not accurately reflect the process; B suggests a passive approach, C limits the fingerprinting to OnGuard alone, and D implies that all methods are equally used, which is not accurate in this context.
