Chapter 2 
Upgrade and Update Information 
This chapter provides considerations and instructions for upgrading or updating your ClearPass application: 
l The term “upgrade” refers to moving from one major release version to another—for example, from 6.2.x 
to 6.3.x. For information on upgrading from a version prior to 6.3, see "Upgrading to ClearPass 6.3 from 
6.1.x or 6.2.x" on page 13. 
l The term “update” refers to applying a patch release within the same major version—for example, from 
6.3.5 to 6.3.6. For information on updating from an earlier 6.3.x release to 6.3.6, see "Updating to the 
Latest 6.3.x from an Earlier 6.3.x Release" on page 15. 
Upgrading to ClearPass 6.3 from 6.1.x or 6.2.x 
An upgrade is the process of moving from one major release version to another—for example, from 6.2.x to 
6.3. This section describes accessing upgrade images, considerations to be aware of, and instructions for 
restoring the log database after the upgrade (optional). 
You can upgrade to ClearPass 6.3 from ClearPass 6.1.x or 6.2.x and then apply the 6.3.6 update. Before you 
proceed with the upgrade, we recommend that you apply the latest available patch updates to your current 
release. For information on the patch update procedure, see "Updating to the Latest 6.3.x from an Earlier 6.3.x 
Release" on page 15. 
l Upgrade images are available within ClearPass Policy Manager from the Software Updates portal at 
Administration > Agents and Software Updates > Software Updates. 
l For appliance upgrades from 5.2.0, upgrade to the latest 6.1 or 6.2 before upgrading to 6.3. The 6.1 and 
6.2 upgrade images are available for download on the Support site under ClearPass > Policy Manager > 
Archives. 
l Direct upgrades from versions prior to ClearPass 6.1.x are not supported. Customers with versions earlier 
than 6.1.0 must upgrade to the latest 6.1.x, 6.2.x, or 6.2.x VM version first before upgrading to 6.3. 
MySQL is supported in CPPM 6.0.x and greater. Aruba does not ship drivers for MySQL by default. Customers who 
require MySQL can contact Aruba support to get the required patch. Users should be aware that this patch does not 
persist across upgrades, so customers using MySQL should contact support before they upgrade. 
Before You Upgrade 
Before you begin the upgrade process, please review the following important items: 
l Plan downtime accordingly. Upgrades can take longer (several hours) depending on the size of your 
configuration database. A large number of audit records (hundreds of thousands) due to MDM integration 
can significantly increase upgrade times. 
l Review the VMware disk requirements. These are described in "System Requirements" on page 7 of the 
About ClearPass 6.3.5 chapter. 
l Any log settings that were modified prior to the upgrade are not retained, and are reset to the default. The 
administrator should configure any custom log settings again after the upgrade. 
Log Database and Access Tracker records are not restored as part of the upgrade. If required, you can manually 
restore them after the upgrade. For more information, please review "After You Upgrade" on page 14. 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Upgrade and Update Information | 13
l If you have a custom authentication source configured to use the session log database, additional steps are 
required after upgrade. You have such an authentication source configured if you have a source of type 
Generic SQL DB in ClearPass Policy Manager > Configuration > Sources with server name localhost 
or 127.0.0.1 and with the database name tipsLogDb. In such cases, manually restoring the session log 
database is required after the upgrade completes (see "After You Upgrade" on page 14). Please contact 
Customer Support for configuration recommendations to move away from using the session log database 
as an authentication source. 
l VM only: If you have two disks already loaded with previous ClearPass versions—for example, 6.1 on SCSI 
0:1 and 6.2 on SCSI 0:2—then drop the inactive disk before upgrading. You must then add a newer disk 
that is twice the size of the old disk. The ClearPass installation will partition this disk into two logical 
volumes. 
Never remove SCSI 0:0 
After You Upgrade 
To reduce downtime, the default upgrade behavior will now back up Log Database and Access Tracker records 
but will not restore them as part of the upgrade. If required, you can manually restore them after the upgrade 
through either the application or the CLI. The session log database contains: 
l Access Tracker and Accounting records 
l Event Viewer 
l ClearPass Guest Application Log 
The Insight database is not part of the session log database, and will be migrated as part of the upgrade. 
Restoring the Log DB Through the User Interface 
To restore the Log DB after upgrade through the UI, restore from the auto-generated upgrade-backup.tar.gz 
file (available at Administration > Server Manager > Local Shared Folders). 
The restoration process could take several hours, depending on the size of your session log database. All 
services are accessible and will handle requests during the restoration, but there will be a performance impact 
while the restoration is in progress. We recommend that you perform this operation during a planned change 
window. 
The restoration process will continue in the background even if the UI is closed or the session times out. A 
“Restore complete” event is logged in the Event Viewer when the restoration is complete. 
This process needs to be repeated on each server in the cluster that should retain the session log database. 
1. Go to Administration > Server Manager > Server Configuration and click Restore for the server. 
2. In the Restore Policy Manager Database window, select the File is on server option, and select the 
upgrade-backup.tar.gz file. 
3. Also select the following options: 
l Restore CPPM session log data (if it exists on the backup) 
l Ignore version mismatch and attempt data migration 
l Do not back up the existing databases before this operation 
4. Uncheck the Restore CPPM configuration data option. 
5. Click Start. 
14 | Upgrade and Update Information ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
Restoring the Log DB Through the CLI 
To restore the Log Database after the upgrade process is complete, use the restore command. Go to 
Administration > Server Manager > Local Shared Folders and download the upgrade-backup.tar.gz 
file. Host the file at a scp or http location accessible from the ClearPass server and execute the command 
restore <location/upgrade-backup.tar.gz> -l –i –b. 
The restoration process could take several hours depending on the size of your session log database. All 
services are accessible and handling requests during the restoration, but there will be a performance impact 
while the restoration is in progress. We recommend that you perform this operation during a planned change 
window. 
The restoration process will abort if the CLI session is closed or times out. We recommend that you initiate the 
restoration from the User Interface, especially if you have a large number of Access Tracker and Accounting records. 
This process needs to be repeated on each server in the cluster that should retain the session log database. 
The restore command syntax is as follows: 
Usage: 
restore user@hostname:/<backup-filename> [-l] [-i] [-b] [-c] [-r] [-n|-N] [-s] 
restore http://hostname/<backup-filename>[-l] [-i] [-b] [-c] [-e] [-n|-N] [-s] 
restore <backup-filename> [-l] [-i] [-b] [-c] [-r] [-n|-N] [-s] 
-b -- do not backup current config before restore 
-c -- restore CPPM configuration data 
-l -- restore CPPM session log data as well if it exists in the backup 
-r -- restore Insight data as well if it exists in the backup 
-i -- ignore version mismatch and attempt data migration 
-n -- retain local node config like certificates etc. after restore (default) 
-N -- do not retain local node config after restore 
-s -- restore cluster server/node entries from backup. 
The node entries will be in disabled state on restore 
Updating to the Latest 6.3.x from an Earlier 6.3.x Release 
An update is the process of applying a minor patch release within the same major version—for example, from 
6.3.5 to 6.3.6. Updates are available from the Software Updates page in ClearPass Policy Manager. This section 
describes how to install a patch update either through the user interface or as an offline update. 
When you install the patch on a cluster, update the Publisher first before applying the update on Subscriber 
nodes. 
During a patch update, the log database is migrated. No extra steps are needed to retain the session log history 
during a patch update. 
If you are installing the patch through the Software Updates portal of the CPPM UI, the update progress indicator 
might stall. If this happens, refresh the browser window to show the updated progress. 
Installation Instructions Through the User Interface 
If access is allowed to the Web service, ClearPass servers will show the latest patch update on the Software 
Updates portal: 
1. In ClearPass Policy Manager, go to Administration > Agents and Software Updates > Software 
Updates. 
2. In the Firmware and Patch Updates area, find the latest patch update and click the Download button in 
its row. 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Upgrade and Update Information | 15
3. After the patch is downloaded, click Install. 
4. When the installation is complete, if the status on the Software Updates page is shown as Needs Restart , 
click the Needs Restart button to restart ClearPass. The status for the patch is then shown as Installed. 
Installation Instructions for an Offline Update 
If you do not have access to the Web service and you need to do an offline update, you may download the 
signed patch from the Support site, upload it to the CPPM server, and then install it through the user interface: 
1. Download the appropriate patch update from the support site (http://support.arubanetworks.com). 
2. Open ClearPass Policy Manager and go to Administration > Agents and Software Updates > Software 
Updates. 
3. At the bottom of the Firmware and Patch Updates area, click Import Updates and browse to the 
downloaded patch file. 
4. Click Install. When the installation is complete, if the status on the Software Updates page is shown as 
Needs Restart , click the Needs Restart button to restart ClearPass. The status for the patch is then shown 
as Installed.

Chapter 4 
Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases 
This chapter provides a brief summary of the features and enhancements introduced in previous ClearPass 
6.3.x releases. 
Features and Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases 
This section provides detailed information about changes to each functionality area. Issue tracking IDs are 
included when available. 
Policy Manager 
l New service parameters are available to enable a Host header check, which allows Web access to valid CPPM 
entities (IP Address, HostNames, Virtual IPs). Custom host names can be added to the default whitelisted 
names. (#25020) 
l A new configuration option, “Always use NETBIOS name”, was added for the Active Directory authentication 
source. The default value of this option is false. When this option is enabled, the NETBIOS name configured 
in the authentication source takes precedence over the domain part of a username (if any) in the 
authentication request. If this option is not enabled, the domain part of a username in the authentication 
request takes precedence over the NETBIOS name. (#23816) 
l Support was added for the ability to add a banner to the ClearPass Policy Manager and ClearPass Guest 
login pages and the CLI. The banner can be used to notify users of any Web site access restrictions due to 
government regulations. (#13304) 
l A Password Type attribute was added to the Generic SQL DB authentication sources to support RADIUS 
authentications when the authentication source contains passwords in cleartext, SHA, SHA256, NT Hash or 
LM Hash formats. (#19778) 
l The Remote Assistance session feature now enables the TAC engineer to view the customer's ClearPass 
Administration UI as part of being able to login to arubasupport shell. (#20707) 
l Support was added for redirection to a configured ClearPass Portal landing page when the user goes to 
https://CPPM-Server. This is in addition to the existing redirect support for http://CPPM-Server. (#20869) 
l The Access Tracker will show an alert if more than two anti-malware products are detected on the client. 
(#20900) 
l Palo Alto integration is now extended to Guest MAC Caching use cases. When the Session Restriction 
Enforcement Profile for a Palo Alto user ID update is configured with “Session-Check::Username = % 
{Endpoint:Username}”, PostAuth will send the Guest username instead of the MAC Address in the user ID 
updates. (#20996) 
l CPPM 6.x changed the format of the configuration files written when CPPM is joined to an AD Domain. 
Migration of these files from the 5.x format to the 6.x format is not possible because administrator 
credentials are required, and these are not stored on CPPM. If you are upgrading from 5.x to 6.3, then you 
must leave the AD domain and then re-join after the upgrade is complete. (#10516) 
l End-to-end RADIUS authentication testing capability was added at Configuration > Policy Simulation to 
aid in troubleshooting and diagnostics. It includes Basic RADIUS auth via radclient, EAP-TLS RADIUS auth via 
eapol_test, and Active Directory/MSCHAPv2 tests. (#10571) 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases | 21
l The Monitoring > Live Monitoring > System Monitor page now includes additional I/O performance 
graphs. (#11980) 
l Added support for ClearPass to act as a SAML identity provider (IdP). (#12195) 
l A new tab, ClearPass, was added to the Monitoring > Live Monitoring > System Monitor page. The 
graphs on this tab provide statistics on time taken and counts for service categorization, authentication, 
authorization, role mapping, posture validation, audit scan, enforcement, and end-to-end request 
processing. (#12329) 
l You can now use the Access Tracker to select the node zones as a selection server/domain field and restrict 
search on the nodes in the zone. At Monitoring > Live Monitoring > Access Tracker, click the session’s 
row in the list and click Edit. In the Select Server/Domain field, select the default (2 servers). (#12332) 
l Separate certificates can now be used for Web logins and RADIUS 802.1x. (#12383) 
l The system Monitor page is enhanced to provide system monitoring information for various network 
services and ClearPass performance. The information includes: (#12393) 
n Authentication and authorization counters 
n Authentication and authorization delays 
n Request processing delays 
n Network traffic information (RADIUS, TACACS+, Database, SSH, NTP, HTTP/HTTPS, OnGuard, etc.) 
n CPU load information 
l ClearPass Policy Manager now supports Suite B cryptographic algorithms. (#12635, #17075, #17454) 
l An IETF CoA template was added to allow an IETF profile to be associated with and dispatched from the CoA 
module, with no dependencies on the selected NAS vendor. (#12923, #18751) 
l The Monitoring > Blacklisted Users page allows users to view the list of users who are no longer eligible 
to access your network. This monitoring page also shows whether the following attributes have been 
exceeded: - Bandwidth limit - Session count - Session duration. (#13029) 
l An online/offline status indicator for endpoint devices was added to Configuration > Identity > 
Endpoints > Edit Endpoint and to Monitoring > Live Monitoring > Access Tracker > Request 
Details. (#13550) 
l New templates were added to the Configuration > Service Template page. (#14177) 
l This version of Policy Manager includes an improved method for fetching data from MDM vendors. The 
Policy Manager Endpoint Context Server (MDM) integration now includes the following additional support: 
(#14392) 
n Data retrieval via paging 
n Ability to change URLs used for API calls to MDM vendors 
n Refresh data from a specific MDM vendor 
l Evaluation customers can now convert their evaluation VMs to a production SKU. This migration upgrades 
using a single disk. In addition, any configurations made during the evaluation period will be retained after 
converting to a production SKU. (#14509, #16631) 
l The Event Viewer now includes events related to the RAID controller state. Note that this feature is only 
available for CP-HW-5K and CP-HW-25K SKUs. (#14706) 
l An advanced option in the domain joining interface can provide explicit domain controller information to 
Samba, assisting the user to control what domain controllers CPPM will use for authentications. (#14738) 
22 | Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
l When editing the Server Configuration page, the Keep Alive Configuration default values now display 
on the Service Parameters page for the ClearPass system services. (#15018) 
l CPPM can now disconnect the client from the network when connectivity with OnGuard is lost, and a 
Change of Authorization (CoA) will be sent. (#14079) 
This is accomplished through the Post Auth Session Restriction Enforcement Profile and by adding: 
Session-Check::Agent-Connection = Down Post-Auth-Check::Action = Disconnect. This 
Enforcement Profile should be sent as a part of OnGuard authentication and will take effect when the 
OnGuard session ends. 
l Added the ability to verify whether an Active Directory account has expired. (#15552) 
l Usernames are no longer case-sensitive. (#15809) 
l A new option was added to the Collect Logs feature in the UI and CLI. When selected, a backup of the 
configuration without password fields is generated as part of the logs generated. (#15985) 
l Users can now perform backup and restore operations on just the data within Insight or another 
application without affecting other CPPM configurations. (#15987) 
l CPPM now includes new App Auth templates for ClearPass Onboard and ClearPass Guest (App Auth is now 
the default for guest Web login pre-authentication checks and Onboard authorization checks). (#16018, 
#16019) 
l The Identity > Onboard Devices and Identity > Guest Users pages have been removed from Policy 
Manager. These features are now exclusively managed through ClearPass Guest. (#16023) 
l The attributes Aruba-AirGroup-Shared-Group and Aruba-User-Group were added to the Aruba RADIUS 
dictionary. (#16083) 
l Time zone settings now account for daylight savings time (DST) changes in Morocco and Israel. Morocco 
does not observe DST during Ramadan. Therefore, Morocco switches to Western European Time (WET) on 
July 7, and then reverts to Western European Summer Time (WEST) on August 10. Also, the period of DST in 
Israel has been extended until the last Sunday in October beginning in 2013. (#16103) 
l To support more user, group, role, and location attributes, long values (greater than 247 characters) for 
RADIUS attributes can now be split across multiple consecutive AirGroup vendor-specific attributes. This 
applies to the following Aruba vendor-specific attributes: (#16116, #16110) 
n Aruba-Location-Id (string) 
n Aruba-AirGroup-Shared-User (string) 
n Aruba-AirGroup-Shared-Role (string) 
n Aruba-AirGroup-Shared-Group (string) 
l Administrators can now control whether Guest account passwords are displayed in CPPM. The Admin 
privileges supports the allowPasswords setting to be set to either true or false. The default is false, which 
hides passwords for Guest accounts already configured in the Guest Users UI. This administrator privilege 
can also create and update Guest accounts with new passwords. (#16122) 
l Policy Manager now supports receiving device profile information directly from supported Cisco 
infrastructure. Leveraging the Cisco device sensor technology requires HW running IOS 15.0 (SE1) (#16326 
l Policy Manager now supports connecting one of its network interfaces into a network SPAN/Mirror port 
enabling device profiling based on DHCP traffic. (#16328) 
l Security enhancements ensure that no Admin user can view users’ credentials. Additionally, the Guest Users 
page has been removed from Policy Manager > Configuration > Identity. (#16337) 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases | 23
l Added the ability for administrators to override some attributes of the profiled status of an endpoint. On 
the Configuration > Identity > Endpoints > Edit Endpoint form, the user can edit the device category, 
family, and name. This can be used in the occasional situations where multiple device types share the same 
DHCP fingerprint and might be miscategorized. (#16364) 
l Support was added for real-time services for asynchronous events in ClearPass, providing users faster 
access in situations such as integration with third-party firewalls. (#16392) 
l For Palo Alto Networks Devices, the External Context Servers configuration page includes a new check 
box to indicate whether the GlobalProtect license is installed on them. If this check box is selected, CPPM 
sends an HIP report for the logged-in users to the configured Palo Alto Network Devices. (#16455) 
l As part of support for Single Sign-On (SSO) based on Layer 2 network authentication through AOS, Policy 
Manager now supports SSO using the Secure Assertions Markup Language (SAML) standard. Integration 
with AOS version 6.4 is required. In the UI, SSO can be configured from the Configuration > Identity 
menu. (#16548) 
l The Virtual IP Settings configuration form now includes an indicator to identify which CPPM node is the 
active VIP. (#16598) 
l In the Aruba Downloadable Role configuration, support was added for Time Range and Session ACLs. 
(#16645) 
l At Administration > External Servers > Endpoint Context Servers, support was added for validating 
the identity of the server certificate’s server. The certificate must be uploaded through CPPM’s standard 
certificate trust list. (#16734) 
l Since OnGuard health checking through the dissolvable agent is now integrated with the Guest Web login 
workflows, the user interface at Administration > Agents and Software Updates > OnGuard Portal 
was removed from the OnGuard health-checking applet. (#16744, #16748, #10139) 
l Default RADIUS COA enforcement profiles are now available for Aerohive, Motorola, and Trapeze. (#16745) 
l The Endpoint Context Server Actions form now includes the ability to specify the HTTP enforcement 
actions (headers, content, and so on). METHOD types are supported, with allowed values of POST, PUT, 
GET, and DELETE. (#16827) 
l A new Aruba vendor-specific attribute, Aruba-AirGroup-Version, was added. This VSA specifies the AirGroup 
protocol version currently used by the RADIUS client or RADIUS server. Enumerated values are as follows: 
(#16865) 
n AirGroup-v1 (1): Indicates the message is AirGroup protocol version 1. This value should not be used; it 
is included only for completeness. 
n AirGroup-v2 (2): Indicates the message is AirGroup protocol version 2. 
l The AirGroup protocol version is now detected and sent in response to an AirGroup authorization request. 
(#16975, #16981) 
l Support was added for importing Elliptic Curve (EC) Certificates into CPPM. (#17040, #17047) 
l A new Details button on the Administration > Certificates > Server Certificate page displays the 
complete details for the certificate. (#17126) 
l When viewing a record in the Access Tracker, users now have the ability to scroll to the previous or next 
records. In prior versions, users had to close the popup window to view another record. (#17221) 
l AirWave was added as an external content server. (#17231) 
l The Wi-Fi RADIUS dictionary is updated with attributes supporting Hotspot 2.0. (#17247) 
24 | Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
l The maximum number of database connections can now be set as a Service Parameter. The default values 
for the different hardware types are: (#17392) 
n CP-HW-500 = 400 connections 
n CP-HW-5K = 700 connections 
n CP-HW-25K = 1000 connections 
l ClearPass can now generate Elliptic Curve (EC) cryptography certificate signing requests. An Algorithm field 
was added to the Certificate Signing Request and Create Self-Signed Certificate forms, and includes 
three types of RSA and two types of EC Private Key algorithms. (#17406) 
l The Access Tracker columns can now be customized. The user can now choose columns to add or remove 
and change their order. (#17426) 
l Configuration > Policy Simulation now includes support for Authentication Simulation. Options are 
available for the Active Directory Authentication, Application Authentication, and RADIUS Authentication 
types. (#17574) 
l New attributes were added to the Onboard dictionary. This is a combined dictionary used for both Onboard 
and WorkSpace. (#17621) 
l Support was added for Remote Assistance. This feature enables the ClearPass Policy Manager administrator 
to allow an Aruba Networks support engineer to remotely login (via SSH) to the ClearPass Policy Manager 
server for the purpose of debugging any issues the customer is facing or for any proactive monitoring of 
the server. (#17673) 
The following is a typical Remote Assistance flow: 
n The administrator schedules a Remote Assistance session for a desired duration. 
n The Aruba Networks support contact receives an email with instructions and credentials to log in. 
n The session is terminated at the end of the stipulated duration. 
n The Administrator can terminate a session before its stipulated duration from the user interface. The 
Support contact can terminate the session before its stipulated duration from the logged-in session. 
This feature is accessible from Administration > Support > Remote Assistance. 
l The Publisher and the Dedicated Publisher can now be in different subnets for publisher redundancy, 
accommodating environments where they might be in separate data centers. (#17815) 
l The Brocade RADIUS dictionary was added. (#18204) 
l License expiration warning alerts that indicate the number of days remaining for a subscription or 
evaluation license were added to the Event Viewer. Administrators can also configure notification by email 
alerts or the Syslog Filter. The alert counter starts at 120 days. (#18305) 
l Users can configure the default landing page from the Administration > Agents and Software Updates 
> ClearPass Portal page. (#18635) 
l The Policy Server now supports distributed AirGroup CoA operations across the publisher and subscribers. 
(#18838) 
l Administrators can now use the health status of individual health classes in posture policies to tailor the 
enforcement profile that will be applied. The value of the attributes will be either Healthy or Unhealthy 
based on pass/fail checks. These attributes are then added to an internal dictionary and can be used along 
with Tips:Posture or independently to arrive at the appropriate enforcement profile to be sent to the client. 
(#18995) 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases | 25
l The following new attributes were added in the Certificate namespace, and are populated when clients 
authenticate using the EAP-TLS authentication method: (#19102) 
n Public Key Algorithm 
n Public Key Length 
n Signature Algorithm 
l New system start-rasession and system terminate-rasession commands were added in 6.3. These 
commands allow administrators to configure and terminate a Remote Assistance session through the CLI. 
(#19220) 
l The ClearPass Portal page was moved in the navigation hierarchy, and is now at Administration > 
ClearPass Portal. (#19363) 
l Support was added for VMware ESXi 5.5. (#19541) 
l ClearPass Policy Manager is FIPS 140-2 compliant through incorporation of a FIPS-validated module which 
provides all cryptography functions for the application. Policy Manager incorporates the OpenSSL FIPS 
Object Module. The OpenSSL FIPS Object Module has obtained FIPS 140-2 certificate number 1747, listed 
at: 
http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/140val-all.htm#1747 (#12634) 
AirGroup 
l Added the ability to create user groups, and to define recurring time-based access schedules for shared 
devices. The user group can be assigned to users as attributes, who then have access to the shared devices 
only when the schedule allows access for that group attribute. (#15566) 
l Limits were set on the lengths of some values. The lengths for shared user, role, location, and group name 
are limited to 64 characters, count to 100, and total length to 1000. (#16352) 
l Added support for sending AirGroup notification messages from the CPPM server’s virtual IP address, if one 
is configured. To enable this feature, select the appropriate network interface under Administration > 
AirGroup Services > Configuration > Network Interface. (#19938) 
Dissolvable Agent 
The OnGuard Web Agent help page now includes a section with recommendations and solutions to common 
problems. (#20751) 
Guest 
l Support was added for the Twilio SMS gateway. (#21304) 
l Arabic, German, and Dutch translation packs were added. (#21024, #21300, #21301) 
l Support was added for languages that are written right-to-left (rtl). (#21302) 
l Content Manager now organizes content into a Private Files directory and a Public Files directory. The 
Private Files directory allows users to upload files that will not be accessible through HTTP or HTTPS. 
(#8402) 
l OnGuard dissolvable agent health checking is now integrated with ClearPass Guest’s Web login workflows. 
(#10139) 
l ClearPass Guest now includes Advertising Services, letting you deliver marketing promotions and 
advertisements on a variety of Guest Management registration, receipt, and login pages. To use this feature, 
go to ClearPass Guest > Configuration > Advertising. (#10613) 
26 | Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
l User interface changes in the Edit Web Logins page reflect added support for Wired Cisco and for generic 
ClearPass WebAuth. A Login Method drop-down list lets you select how a user’s network login will be 
handled. (#15277) 
l Support was added for secure hash-based verification of parameters passed to the captive portal during 
user redirection. New options for security hash and the shared secret are available on the Edit Web Logins 
page. (#15810) 
l Added support for Web login pages to act as a SAML identity provider (IdP). (#15899) 
l The default forms for creating guests and devices are improved. MACTrac and AirGroup Operator forms are 
combined, providing a single place for all user-based device registration. Administrators can now create 
personal AirGroup devices as well as shared AirGroup devices. (#15900) 
l Guest Web logins now support Aruba Application Authentication. App Auth is now the default for guest 
Web login pre-authentication checks and Onboard authorization checks. (#15921, #16005, #16006) 
l FIPS support was added for Guest and Onboard. (#16078) 
l The PHP version was upgraded to 5.4.20. This includes fixes for CVE-2013-4248, CVE-2013-4113, CVE- 
2013-2110, CVE-2013-1635, CVE-2013-1643, and CVE-2013-1824. (#16108, #18267) 
l Added the ability to download a guest receipt as an Apple Passbook pass. The layout and content of the 
pass is defined by a “pass template”. (#16588) 
l Guest usernames are now always handled as not case-sensitive. During migration, guest usernames that are 
identical except for case differences will be renamed. To find these strings after migrating to 6.3, search for 
the string “-renamed-”. (#16593) 
l Updated French translations are available. (#16632) 
l Access is now available to the {$_endpoint} variable on Guest page loads. This variable holds information 
about the endpoint and is populated with information taken from ClearPass Profile. You can add {dump 
var=$_endpoint export=html} to a Web login or other guest-facing page to see the kind of information that 
is available. (#16648) 
l Added support for the special keyword _admin in an email CC list. This enables the use of the current 
operator’s email address as the target of an email receipt. (#17030) 
l Added built-in support for bypassing the Apple Captive Network Assistant. (#17672) 
l Provisioning of a device profile without network settings is now supported. (#17758) 
l The SMS Gateway editor is updated. New capabilities include message URL encoding, HTTP Basic 
authentication, and support for additional success response codes. (#17936) 
l Added the ability to specify the flag icon used for a translation pack in the user interface. (#19139) 
l A Dutch translation pack was added. (#19172) 
l Added the ability to export any overrides made to a translation pack. This file can be shared with Aruba 
Networks and is compatible with the translation tools. (#19261) 
l Customers converting from Amigopod can now continue to use their existing page URLs without 
modification—for example, /guest_register.php does not need to be modified to guest/guest_ 
register.php. (#19277) 
Insight 
l Insight’s alert emails are enhanced to make it easier to identify event details. At Search > Search Alerts, 
new columns match the alert conditions to the body of the email message, making it easier to find details 
such as when the alert was triggered or how many failures were seen within a time window. (#11055) 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases | 27
l Insight is enhanced to customize columns when searching records. You can drag and drop the Available 
Columns to Selected Columns to get the desired search results. For administrators, the search options 
selected on each template are saved and can be viewed at the next login. (#11110) 
l The Insight UI is enhanced to provide an option to import a report/alert template on a running system. This 
is useful to provide new reports without waiting for CPPM releases. A new Select file to import parameter 
is added under the Import Insight Template container in the Administration tab. (#15988) 
l Insight introduced a master-slave cluster model for replicating configuration. If multiple nodes have Insight 
enabled, one node can be configured as a master and others can be configured as slaves. If no node is 
configured as master, replication will be turned off. A new Replicate button is introduced in the 
Administration tab to configure across the cluster nodes. Only a single node can be configured as a 
master. (#16456) 
l Insight provides the capability to run a search and filter the reports without creating new reports or adding 
new fields to an existing report. Now you can filter the search results by NAD IP, CPPM node IP, and 
hostnames. (#16837) 
l Insight is enhanced to provide search results listed in rows to view additional information that is retrieved 
from the database for a selected user, device, or session in the popup window. The popup window displays 
the following information based on the selected template: (#16860) 
n User Information 
n Device Information 
n Session Information 
n Network Information 
n Policy Information 
l The Insight Dashboard is enhanced to make it more interactive, and it provides an aggregated view of 
authentication events for a cluster. New widgets are introduced with the option to select and unselect. 
Insight stores the widget display settings and location and displays them when the administrator logs in the 
next time. (#16907) 
l The Insight Customize widget now allows you to select the graphs that display by default on your Insight 
Dashboard. (#19221) 
MDM 
The device discovery logic for MobileIron MDM integration was enhanced. Device discovery is now faster, 
preventing timeout issues when there are numerous devices. (#24700, #25331) 
Onboard

l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent now shows the date and time for events in Health Status messages. 
(#23705) 
l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent on Mac OS X is now relaunched automatically if it detects a change in 
the application mode. (#23295) 
l Windows Event Viewer log entries are now included in OnGuard logs. When the ClearPass Agent Controller is 
started or stopped, this provides the ability to verify whether it was a manual change or due to an issue. 
(#21478) 
l The Retry button can now be hidden on the client. (#21625) 
l A new Health Check Interval (in hours) attribute was added to the Onguard Agent enforcement profile. 
Administrators can use this attribute to define different Health Check Quiet Periods for different users, such 
as students or staff. The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent gives preference to the Health Check Quiet 
Period value received in the enforcement profile over the value configured in Global Agent Settings. If the 
Health Check Quiet Period value is not configured in the enforcement profile, the Global Agent Settings 
value is used instead. (#19371) 
l A new Health Logs option was added under the Diagnostic tab. The health logs display diagnostic logs 
related to OnGuard health checks and CPPM server reachability on various network interfaces. This option 
is available on both Windows and Mac OS X. (#19385, #20898) 
l The following items were added: (#20272) 
n A new field for Registry Keys to let you specify a custom message for failed Registry Key Checks 
n A Monitor Mode for the Registry Key Health Class 
n Registry Key Health Class Posture Check results in Access Tracker > Output tab > Posture 
Evaluation Results section 
l In previous versions, the OnGuard Agent sent two WebAuth requests if any of the following health classes 
were configured: (#20896) 
n Installed Applications 
n Processes 
n Registry 
n Services 
n Windows Hotfixes 
Now the OnGuard Agent will send two WebAuth requests only the first time after installation. After that, the 
OnGuard Agent will send only one WebAuth request having information of the health classes listed above, 
and will do so only in the case of agent restart, machine restart, or user login/logout. 
For Mac OS X, this is applicable for the following health classes: 
n Installed Applications 
n Processes 
n Services 
l OnGuard’s backend service will not collect health if the OnGuard Agent (front end) is not running. This will 
reduce OnGuard CPU usage on client machines. (#20945) 
l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent introduced a new Virtual Machine health class for Mac OS X. 
(#14027) 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases | 31
l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent introduced a new Network Connections health class for Mac OS X 
that provides configuration to control network connections based on connection type. (#14030) 
l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent introduced a new Installed Applications health class on Mac OS X 
and Windows OS. With the introduction of this new health class, an administrator can configure what 
applications should be present or not present on clients. Auto-remediation is not supported for the 
Installed Applications health class. (#14033, #14036) 
l The Enforcement Policy rules now include Per-Application-Based posture enforcement policies, based on 
the results of the individual Application Posture Tokens (APTs) of the health classes configured in the 
Internal Posture Policy. (#14080) 
l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent now supports detection and installation of missing patches for patch 
management agents such as System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) or Microsoft Windows Update 
Agent on Windows. A new option, Install Level Check, was added for Patch Management Health Class 
having the values “No Check,” “All,” “Selected on Server,” and “Security.” Based on the value of the Install 
Level Check, OnGuard Agent checks missing patches and, if auto-remediation is enabled, OnGuard 
downloads and installs missing patches. Note: This feature is verified with Microsoft Windows Update 
Agent. (#15737, #12616) 
l Currently, when a user clicks Retry/Logout, that user stays in a healthy VLAN; however, OnGuard stops 
monitoring the client health. To avoid this, OnGuard bounces the interface after a default of 5 minutes 
from when the user quits the OnGuard Agent. Now OnGuard provides the ablility to configure the number 
of minutes that should elapse before OnGuard bounces interfaces when OnGuard remains disconnected 
after Logout/Quit. A new parameter, Delay to bounce after Logout (in minutes), is introduced in 
Global Agent Settings. (#15738) 
l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent can automatically upgrade when a newer version is available on the 
CPPM server. A new Agent action is introduced to determine what the OnGuard Agent should perform 
when an update is available. The options Ignore, Notify User, and Download and Install are available. 
This feature is only available with OnGuard Agent versions 6.3 and above. (#16756) 
l Currently, all the configured health classes in a posture policy are evaluated and the evaluation result is used 
in determining the overall health state of the posture policy. In some cases, the administrator might want to 
collect information for these health classes but not want the clients to be treated as unhealthy. A new 
Monitor Mode option is added for the Windows Hotfixes health class to fix this issue. If Monitor Mode is 
enabled, then the health status of the Windows Hotfixes health class is set to healthy. (#16898) 
l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent provides the ability for an administrator to configure the desired 
period (in hours) for OnGuard to avoid health checks after a client is deemed healthy. The roles and client 
health status are cached separately, ensuring that the client health status is not deleted if RADIUS 
authentication fails. A new parameter, OnGuard Health Check Interval (in hours), is introduced in Global 
Agent Settings. The default value is 0 to make sure that the health checks are not avoided. This parameter is 
supported only by the OnGuard Agent in Health Only mode for wired and wireless interfaces. It is not 
supported by the dissolvable agent or for VPN-type interfaces. (#17662, #12517) 
l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent for Mac OS X and for Windows is now localized in Japanese. The 
OnGuard UI can display text in the language that is selected during installation. (#17899, #13136) 
l The online help now includes links to charts of the third-party software OnGuard supports. Charts are 
included for antivirus, antispyware, firewall, disk encryption, peer-to-peer, patch management, and virtual 
machine products. To access the support charts, go to Administration > Agents and Software Updates 
> OnGuard Settings, click the Help link to open the OnGuard Settings topic, and then click the right arrow 
to navigate to the OnGuard Agent Support Charts subtopic. (#18228)

WorkSpace 
l Added iOS 7 support for ClearPass WorkSpace. (#16416) 
l The BYOD Self-Service portal supports the following MDM/WorkSpace tasks for end users. End users can 
perform the following actions when a device is lost or stolen: (#17442, #16271) 
n Locking a device 
n Unlocking a device 
n Wiping device data 
l App management actions such as installing or uninstalling an app Added support for Web apps for 
WorkSpace in iOS App types. All the Web apps configured in WorkSpace use the Aruba proprietary browser 
published in the app store. (#16757) 
l Added the ability to check whether a device is actively managed by MDM before allowing access to 
WorkSpace and WorkSpace managed apps. If the device is not MDM managed, it will be blocked from using 
WorkSpace or the WorkSpace managed apps. (#17445) 
l Added single sign-on (SSO) login support for Enterprise apps in Aruba WorkSpace. With SSO enabled, the 
user can log in to WorkSpace and gain access to all WorkSpace apps without being prompted to log in again. 
WorkSpace uses an NTLM/Basic or form-based authentication for SSO. With NTLM/Basic authentication, 
users can authorize with the servers without using a password. With form-based authentication, users must 
enter their username, password, and/or domain name in the HTML form. (#18143) 
l The following preconfigured MDM actions are available on AW and MI devices: (#20056) 
n Send Message 
n Send Message (Parameterized) 
n Lock Device 
n Unlock Device 
n Clear Passcode 
n Get Application 
n Get Labels 
To configure these actions in WClearPass Policy Manager, go to Configuration > Identity > Endpoints.

Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases 
The following known issues for this release were identified in previous releases. Workarounds are included 
when possible. For a list of known issues identified in the 6.3.6 release, see the What’s New in This Release 
chapter. 
Policy Manager 
Table 49: Known Issues in Policy Manager 
Bug 
ID Description 
#10881 Symptom/Scenario: Entity updates with PostAuth enforcement fail if the publisher is down. 
#11744 Symptom: Upgrading from 5.2 to 6.x fails if CPPM is joined to the domain. 
Scenario: The issue will not be seen if the latest cumulative patch is installed before performing the 
upgrade. 
#11906 Symptom/Scenario: The Aruba dictionary becomes disabled by default after upgrading from Policy 
Manager 4.x to 6.0.1. 
Workaround: Customers who run into this issue must enable the Aruba dictionary manually from the 
Administration > Dictionaries page. 
#12316 Symptom/Scenario: Syslog Filters and Data Filters configuration will be removed after an upgrade. 
Policy Manager does not carry forward Syslog Filters and Data Filters configuration. Only default data is 
migrated. 
#13645 Symptom/Scenario: Authorization attributes are not cached for the Okta authentication source. 
#13781 Symptom/Scenario: In the 6.1 release, the default unit for the CRL update interval was changed to 
“hours” from an earlier default unit of “days”. Restoring a 5.x backup on CPPM 6.x causes the update 
interval to be “hours”. For example, “2 days” in 5.2.0 becomes “2 hours” in 6.1.0. 
Workaround: Manually change the value in days to the value in hours. In the above example, that would 
be 48 hours. 
#13999 
#13975 
Symptom/Scenario: In order to add or update a PostAuth profile configuration, the admin must first 
delete old profiles from CPPM, and then add the new/updated profiles. 
#14186 Symptom: Post auth doesn’t work properly for UNKNOWN endpoints in a MAC Authentication Bypass 
(MAB) flow. 
Scenario: This has been observed if the user tries to connect using an endpoint that is unknown to CPPM. 
#14190 Symptom/Scenario: Blacklisted MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) users cannot be blocked using the 
Blacklist User Repository. 
Workaround: In order for post auth to work in a MAB flow, a new blacklist repository must be added with 
a custom filter. 
#17232 Symptom/Scenario: The error and warning messages returned by the Web service are displayed in 
English instead of the localized language. 
#18064 Symptom: AirWatch custom HTTP actions needs content even though it’s not required. 
Scenario: For AirWatch MDM, custom-defined HTTP actions such as Lock Device or Clear Passcode fail 
with error messages. This is due to a bug in AirWatch. 
Workaround: Do either of the following: 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases | 57
Bug 
ID Description 
l Add a header Content-Length:0 in the Context Server Action. 
l Add a dummy JSON data {“a”:”b”}. 
#18701 Symptom/Scenario: Performing an AddNote operation using AirWatch as the MDM connector fails in 
CPPM. This is due to a bug in AirWatch. 
#19087 Symptom: The Server Configuration page processes indefinitely while changing the NTP server. 
Scenario: Occasionally when modifying the NTP settings in CPPM at Administration > Server Manager > 
Server Configuration, it might not show the progress updates. 
Workaround: Manually refresh the page. 
#19176 Symptom/Scenario: CPPM does not currently support posting of Palo Alto Networks (PANW) user ID 
information when the PAN OS uses Vsys. 
#19826 Symptom/Scenario: Palo Alto Networks (PANW) devices will only accept the backslash character (  ) as 
a separator between the domain name and the username. 
#20139 Symptom/Scenario: Currently, if the remote SSH (Remote Assist feature) browser window is kept open 
without any activity for more than half an hour, the window becomes unresponsive and there is no 
indication that it has timed out. This is the page seen by Support Engineers; not the customer's UI. 
#20293 
Symptom: The subscriber join to cluster fails. 
Scenario: In rare cases DB migration results in some bad data being carried over from an earlier version 
to 6.3. 
Workaround: Share the backup with Customer Advocacy team, who will analyze and provide steps to 
manually clean up bad data. 
#20383 Symptom/Scenario: The system posture status may still be maintained after Post Auth agent disconnect 
action. This is likely to happen when Posture result cache timeout service parameter is higher than the 
Lazy handler polling frequency. 
#20416 Symptom: The Palo Alto Networks (PANW) operating system firewall rejects user ID updates from CPPM 
when the user ID limit is reached on the firewall. When this happens, user ID updates are rejected with 
errors. 
Scenario: This occurs when the PANW firewall exceeds its supported limit advertised for user ID 
registration. 
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. 
#20453 Symptom/Scenario: If profiling is not turned on, CPPM is not able post the HIP report with complete data 
to Palo Alto devices. 
#20455 When doing an SSO & ASO flow in Safari browsers, the certificate needs to be added in the trust list of the 
browser. Please follow these steps: 
1. Open the Safari browser and enter the SP URL. 
2. After you enter the SSO application in the browser, the Show Certificate option is provided in a popup 
window. 
3. Click Show Certificate and select the Always trust “FQDN of SP machine” when connecting to 
IPaddress check box, and then click the Continue button. 
#20456 Symptom: SNMP bounce fails. 
Scenario: When only the SNMP bounce in the SNMP Enforcement profile of a Web auth service is 
configured, SNMP bounce functionality does not work. 
Workaround: Also configure a VLAN ID along with the SNMP bounce in the SNMP enforcement profile. 
#20484 Symptom: Dropping the Subscriber and then adding it back to the cluster may fail at times. 
Scenario: CPPM system time might not have been synchronized with an NTP source. 
58 | Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
Bug 
ID Description 
Workaround: Configure an NTP server. CPPM will synchronize its time with the NTP source. Attempt the 
cluster operation. 
#20489 Symptom/Scenario: CPPM 6.3 does not allow a server certificate with a Key Length of 512 bits as seen in 
the Self-Signed Certificate and Certificate Signing Request UIs. Earlier CPPM versions did not have this 
restriction, hence their server certificate may use one with a 512 bit Public Key. After upgrade, these 
servers will not work properly. 
Workaround: The admin must manually fix the server certificate to allow a minimum of 1024 bits long 
Public Key prior to upgrade. 
#20522 Symptom: An XML response in AirWatch version 6.5.1.2 produces endpoint discovery issues, causing 
CPPM to discover only one endpoint. 
Scenario: The issue is specific to the 6.5.1.2 version of AirWatch. 
#20943 Symptom: After upgrading from 6.2.0 to 6.3.0, the WorkSpace Attributes under Service Rules, Role 
Mapping, and Enforcement Policy Rules are not updated. 
Scenario: In 6.2, under Enforcement Policy > Rules, the WorkSpace Dictionary Items are used with 
Application:WorkSpace:<Attribute>. In 6.3 this is changed to Application:ClearPass:<Attributes>. 
#21015 Symptom/Scenario: SNMP v3 read with non-privileged security levels (NOAUTHNOPRIV and 
AUTHNOPRIV) is allowed even if the AUTHPRIV security level is selected. 
#21334 Symptom: CPPM does not launch. 
Scenario: The W-ClearPass user interface will not launch from Firefox or from older versions of Internet 
Explorer (IE) browsers if an EC-based HTTPS server certificate is used. On Firefox, the error message 
"Secure Connection Failed. An error occurred during a connection to <server>. Certificate type not 
approved for application" is displayed. On older versions of IE, the error message "Internet Explorer 
cannot display the Web page" is displayed. 
Workaround: Use the latest version of IE or use the Chrome browser instead. 
#21444 Symptom: The CPPM Administrator UI is not accessible after upgrading to 6.3.0. 
Scenario: This occurs only if the private key provided for the CPPM Server Certificate in the earlier 
version is not PKCS12 format, or if the key length is less than 1024 bits. 
Workaround: Follow these steps: 
1. Before upgrading to 6.3.0, export the Server Certificate and save it. 
2. Create a new self-signed certificate and make sure the key length is at least 1024 bits long, and then 
update the Server Certificate. 
3. Proceed with the upgrade. 
4. After the upgrade, log in to the Admin UI and import the Server Certificate that was saved in step 1. 
In case these steps were not done before the upgrade, boot back to the older version partition and follow 
these steps. 
#22023 Symptom/Scenario: Launching the customer's ClearPass user interface through Proxy does not work on 
the Internet Explorer or Safari browsers. 
Workaround: Use the Chrome or Firefox browser instead. 
#23418 Symptom/Scenario: If a CoA is sent for a device that has been removed from the endpoint repository, 
the Access Tracker shows errors that are hard to understand. A clear error message to the effect of 
“Device not present in Endpoint Repository” should be shown instead. 
#23478 Symptom/Scenario: When a new HTTPS server certificate is uploaded, it is not automatically used as the 
SAML IdP signing certificate. 
Workaround: Restart the “System auxiliary services” service. 
#23505 Symptom/Scenario: In Syslog Export Filters, when RADIUS.Acct fields are combined with Common 
attributes, duplicate Syslog records are generated. 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases | 59
Bug 
ID Description 
Workaround: Use custom SQL to avoid duplicate Syslog records. 
#23581 Symptom: A database connection error occurs in Access Tracker UIs when updated to 6.3.2 with MD2 
server certificates. 
Scenario: This is a database connection problem because of the MD2 certificate available for 
PostgreSQL. MD2 is not supported. 
Workaround: After updating to 6.3.2 (patch installation from 6.3.0), if Access Tracker or Analysis & 
Trending show errors relating to database query errors, it can be due to an invalid Server Certificate. 
Go to Server Certificate and select the certificate for the server and RADIUS service. 
Click View Details for each certificate in the chain. 
Look for the Signature Algorithm and check to see if it uses MD2. 
Download the certificate that is MD5 or SHA1-based algorithm to replace the MD2 algorithm from the 
corresponding Certificate Authority site. 
From the Support shell, restart the cpass-postgresql service. 
#23593 Symptom: The device registration flow is affected after upgrade to 6.3.2. 
Scenario: After upgrading to 6.3.2 from 6.1.x or 6.2.x, the Device Registration role is not updated in 
enforcement profiles, resulting in enforcements not happening as expected. 
Workaround: Manually update the Enforcement Policy rules to use [Device Registration] instead of 
[MACTrac Operator] for affected policies. 
#23625 Symptom: Restoring the log DB in 6.3.2 overwrites existing event viewer entries. 
Scenario: In 6.3.2, restoring the log database alone (without configuration database restoration) from a 
backup results in the Event Viewer entries being overwritten with the ones from the backup. This has 
occurred in cases where the log database is restored manually after the upgrade. 
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. 
#23848 Symptom: The ClearPass server’s time setting might sometimes be off by as much as eight hours. 
Scenario: This is due to a known issue with VMware tools, which periodically checks and synchs time 
between the host and the guest operating systems. This issue is documented by VMware at 
http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic= %2Fcom.vmware.vmtools.install.doc%2FGUID-C0D8326A- 
B6E7-4E61-8470-6C173FDDF656.html. 
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. 
Dissolvable Agent 
Table 50: Known Issues in the Dissolvable Agent 
Bug 
ID Description 
#18031 Symptom: The OnGuard Web Agent does not work with Chrome on Mac OS X with Java 7 installed. 
Scenario: This occurs when Java 7 is installed. Java 7 is released as 64-bit binaries; the Java plugin will not 
work in Chrome, which currently has a 32-bit version. 
Workaround: The Web agent works fine with Firefox-23.x or later versions. Use the Firefox browser for 
the Web agent until Chrome resolves 64-bit support for Mac OS X. 
#18230 Symptom/Scenario: The ClearPass OnGuard dissolvable agent might not work properly if the client 
machine runs on two different Java versions—for example, Java 6 and Java 7. 
Workaround: Uninstall the old Java component if it exists and keep the latest Java version. 
#20191 The OnGuard applet needs to run in Safari's “Unsafe mode” to perform health checks. To enable this, in 
Safari go to Preferences > Security > Manage Website Settings > Java > [Select IP/hostname of 
ClearPass server] and select Run in Unsafe Mode in the drop-down list. 
60 | Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
Bug 
ID Description 
#20514 Client health checks might not work if the client is not running the latest Java version. 
#23253 Symptom/Scenario: Launching the Web Agent applet using some Java versions (7u55 and above) 
displays the security warning “This web site is requesting access and control of the Java application 
shown above. Allow access only if you trust the web site...” 
Workaround: Click Allow to let the health checks proceed. 
Guest 
Table 51: Known Issues in Guest 
Bug 
ID Description 
#9967 Symptom/Scenario: Unicode SMS messages (UTF-16 encoded) are limited to 70 Unicode characters. The 
ClearPass Guest user interface still displays 160 characters as the limit. Sending a Unicode SMS message 
over 70 characters may fail if the SMS service provider does not support multi-part SMS messages. 
Workaround: If you plan to use Unicode SMS messages, check your SMS receipt carefully to ensure it is 
not over 70 characters in length. 
Insight 
Table 52: Known Issues in Insight 
Bug 
ID Description 
#11827 Insight is not supported in Internet Explorer 8 (IE8). 
#12096 Editing a report to select some columns for analytics overwrites/replaces the chosen columns for the 
corresponding report. 
#12159 Insight reports do not show license changes immediately. The changes might take up to 24 hours, 
depending on when the changes are made. 
#13980 Columns with non-ASCII values are missing in PDF reports. 
#19507 PDF & HTML Data Tables are not created if the CSV file size is larger than 1MB, although the generated 
PDF and HTML reports include analytics if configured on the report. 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases | 61
Onboard 
Table 53: Known Issues in Onboard 
Bug 
ID Description 
#9897 ClearPass Onboard does not update the Policy Manager endpoints table with an endpoint record when 
provisioning an iOS 5 device. This is because the iOS 5 device does not report its MAC address to 
ClearPass Onboard during device provisioning. 
#7627 PSK networks cannot be configured for iOS or Android devices in this release. 
#10127 Auto-reconnect does not work for Mac OS X 10.7. This client will reconnect using 
the original credentials that were used to connect to the SSID (PEAP instead of TLS). This 
happens even if the “Remember this Network” option is NOT selected when connecting to the 
provisioning network. 
#10667 When using Onboard to provision an OS X system with a system profile, the administrator must select the 
appropriate certificate when connecting to the provisioned network for the first time. The administrator 
should also ensure that the system's network settings are configured to automatically prefer connecting 
to the provisioned network, if the intent is for non-administrator users to always use that network. 
The process to provision an OS X system with a system profile is: 
1. The administrator should log in to the OS X system and connect to the provisioning SSID. 
2. Do not select “Remember this network.” 
3. Use Onboard to provision the device with an EAP-TLS profile, ignoring the username/password 
prompt. 
4. Connect to the provisioned network, selecting EAP-TLS as the mode and selecting the provisioned 
certificate, but ignoring the username field. 
5. When the system connects and authorizes to the network, use Network Preferences to place the EAP-TLS 
network first in the priority list. 
6. After the administrator logs out, users logging in are connected by EAP-TLS and cannot modify those 
settings. 
#20983 Symptom: HTC Android asks the user to enter a certificate name to be installed when onboarding. 
Scenario: HTC Androids running Android version less than Android 4.3 and greater than Android 2.3 ask 
the user to enter a name for the certificate to be installed while onboarding. Authentication will fail if the 
user does not enter the exact certificate name as QuickConnect application instructs in a message prior 
to the certificate installation dialog. 
Workaround: None. This issue is due to a limitation in the Android phone’s firmware. 
#23287 Symptom: Embedding Admin credentials for onboarding does not work in Windows 8 and above. The 
system hangs and there is no error message. 
Scenario: When onboarding Windows systems with Windows 8 and above, if operations requiring admin 
privileges are configured, then the end user doing the onboarding needs to have admin privileges on the 
system. These operations include installing applications, configuring wired network,s installing 
certificates in the machine certificate store, and so on. Embedding admin credentials along with the 
QuickConnect wizard for this purpose does not work for Windows 8 and above. 
Workaround: There is no workaround. This is a Windows system limitation. 
OnGuard 
Memory utilization for W-ClearPass OnGuard depends on the Health Classes configured and the type of Windows 
OS; however, the minimum requirement for W-ClearPass OnGuard running on a Windows platform is 90 MB.

Table 54: Known Issues in OnGuard 
Bug 
ID Description 
#10165 Symptom: ClearPass OnGuard cannot restrict the clients based on Windows service packs. 
Scenario: If any of the Windows System Health Validator check fails, the health status of the client is set 
to unhealthy but no SoHR is sent to OnGuard. OnGuard cannot display a specific remediation message; 
however, the red shield icon is displayed to indicate the 
client is unhealthy. 
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. 
#11806 ClearPass OnGuard 6.1 does not support Sophos 10.0.4 on Windows XP SP3. 
#12342 The OnGuard agent fails to collect health on Windows 8 if VMware Server 2.0.2.X is installed. 
#13164 Symptom: The hardware installation pop-up dialog appears to stop installing the ClearPass OnGuard 
Unified Agent for VIA+Onguard mode. A warning message similar to “The software you are installing... 
has not passed Windows Logo testing” might be displayed during installation. 
Scenario: This might occur during the installation of the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent on WinXP and 
Windows 2003 SP2. 
Workaround: Users should click Continue Anyway to proceed. 
#13363 Symptom: On the Mac OS, the current version of the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent VPN component 
does not show some VPN-related information—for example, tunnel IP assigned by the controller, packet 
count, or diagnostic details. 
Scenario: This occurs on Mac OS. It does not occur on Windows OS. 
#13379 Uninstalling OnGuard is not supported from the UI. Users must currently run the following script from the 
CLI to remove OnGuard from the system completely: 
/usr/local/bin/clearpassonguarduninstaller.sh 
#13676 OnGuard no longer supports the Client Certificate Check feature, which was available in prior versions. 
#13677 OnGuard does not support the External Captive Portal Support feature. 
#13929 At times, OnGuard may fail to detect peer-to-peer applications, such as /uTorrent, on Windows 2008 R2. 
#13935 OnGuard does not support enabling/disabling the Windows Update Agent Patch Management 
Application. 
#13970 After anti-virus software is installed, the system must be rebooted before using ClearPass OnGuard. 
#14196 ClearPass OnGuard will not be able get the correct status of 'Software Update' PM application on Mac OS 
X, if Check for updates and Download updates automatically are not toggled at least once. 
#14673 The Mac OnGuard Agent does not support bouncing of a VPN Interface other than the Aruba VPN 
Interface (version 6.1). 
#14760 In some cases, OnGuard fails to connect to the CPPM server from a wired interface if the VPN is 
connected from a trusted network. 
#14842 Installing the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent removes an existing VIA installation. To continue to use 
VPN functionality, go to Administration > Agents and Software Updates > OnGuard Settings and 
select Install and enable Aruba VPN component from the drop-down list. 
#14996 If McAfee VE is running on Windows XP, the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent VPN will not work. 
#15072 VIA connection profile details are not carried forward after upgrade from VIA 2.0 to ClearPass OnGuard 
Unified Agent 6.1.1. 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases | 63
Bug 
ID Description 
#15097 The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent does not support installation of a VPN component on Mac OS X 
10.6. 
#15156 VPN configuration is not retained after upgrading to the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent using MSI 
Installer on a 64 bit Windows system. 
#15233 On Win 7 (64 Bit), upgrading an existing VIA 2.1.1.X to the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent can lead to 
an inconsistent state. Users should first uninstall VIA and then proceed with the ClearPass OnGuard 
Unified Agent installation. 
#15351 Symptom: The state of the Real_Time Scanning button in the Trend Micro Titanium Internet Security for 
Mac user interface is not updated. 
Scenario: This is observed when the ClearPass Unified OnGuard Agent has Real Time Protection (RTP). 
Workaround: Close the UI using Command +Q and restart. 
#15586 Symptom: The ClearPass OnGuard 6.2 dissolvable agent does not support the following new health 
classes on Mac OS X: Processes, Patch Management, Peer-To-Peer, Services, USB Devices, and Disk 
Encryption. The dissolvable agent (DA) does not display 
these health classes as remediation messages in the user interface because java binary sdk support is 
not included. 
Scenario: The client will be unhealthy if any of the health classes listed above are configured and 
performing a health scan via the DA. 
#15956 ClearPass OnGuard does not support enabling RTP and start Full System Scan for Microsoft Forefront 
Endpoint Protection 2010 Antivirus. 
#15986 ClearPass OnGuard returns the product name of “Microsoft Forefront Endpoint protection” AntiVirus as 
“Microsoft Security Essential”. 
#16181 Symptom: The command level process can be detected using the path “none”, but the application level 
process can't be detected by setting the path to “none”. 
Scenario: This applies to MAC OS. 
Workaround: The application-level process health should be configured with the path set to 
Applications > Firefox.app. 
#16550 Symptom/Scenario: The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent does not support checking of disk encryption 
state using the MacKeeper (ZeoBIT LLC) Disk Encryption Product on MAC OS X. This causes the client to 
be treated as healthy even if none of the disk is encrypted. 
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. 
#18259 Symptom/Scenario: The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent does not support Stop or Pause remediation 
actions for Oracle VM Box Guest virtual machines on Mac OS X. 
#18281 The ClearPass OnGuard configured health quiet period is supported in Health only mode. It doesn’t work 
in Auth+Health mode. 
#18341 Symptom/Scenario: OnGuard cannot start a process on Mac OS for non-administrative users. 
Workaround: The user must have root privileges to start process-level health checks by OnGuard on 
Mac OS. 
#18574 The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent Japanese version characters are not compatible on English 
Windows XP if the Asian language support pack is not available on the client. 
#19019 The network interface will be bounced twice (once immediately, and once after the configured interval) 
when the log-out/bounce delay parameter is configured. This is expected behavior; the first bounce is 
required to end the existing session. 
64 | Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
Bug 
ID Description 
#19584 In a rare case of an installation binary being corrupted, the installer's behavior will be unpredictable. In 
such cases the installer can correct itself and error out. 
One known exception to this behavior is if the installation file is corrupted towards the end (most 
unlikely), the installer can install the VPN-only version of the application. If this occurs, download a new 
binary and upgrade the existing installation. 
#19685 Symptom: After upgrading OnGuard to 6.3, the backend service fails to start and is unable to collect 
logs. 
Scenario: This rarely occurs. It has been observed on the Mac 10.6, 10.8, or 10.9 OS after upgrading 
OnGuard from 6.2.4 or 6.3 to 6.3. 
Workaround: If the backend service fails to communicate with the plugin, reboot the system after the 
OnGuard upgrade is complete. 
#20279 The OnGuard Agent Quit/Force options sometimes do not work on the Mac OS if the machine is restarted 
while health checks are in progress.

Symptom/Scenario: Adding a new service to Available Services in the ClearPass Linux Universal System 
Health Validator clears the default services. 
#20316 OnGuard’s Health Check Quiet Period is applicable per network interface. If a machine has more than 
one network interface, then each interface will have its own Health Check Quiet Period duration. 
#23470 Symptom/Scenario: On a Japanese OS, when upgrading from VIA 2.1.1.3 to the ClearPass OnGuard 
Unified Agent, a known issue with uninstalling VIA displays a message asking the user to select the VIA 
driver. This does not occur on an English OS. 
#23636 
23635 
Symptom: The value of the Posture:Applied Policy attribute is not correctly displayed in the Access 
Tracker for posture policies carried over from releases earlier than 6.3.0. 
Scenario: This has been observed when upgrading from 6.2.6 to 6.3.2. 
Workaround: This can be corrected by manually saving the affected posture policy once after upgrade. 
#23674 Symptom/Scenario: If a new service is added to the Available Services field for the ClearPass Linux 
Universal System Health Validator at Configuration > Posture > Posture Policies, the default services 
are removed. 
QuickConnect 
Table 55: Known Issues in QuickConnect 
Bug 
ID Description 
#20867 Symptom/Scenario: Android 4.3 and above fails to install a self signed certificate for the CA certificate. 
Workaround: For onboarding Android version 4.3 and above, CPPM must have a RADIUS server 
certificate issued by a proper Certificate Authority and not a self signed certificate. This is a requirement 
of Android’s API for Wi-Fi management. In Onboard network settings, the CA certificate that issued the 
server's certificate has to be selected as the trusted root certificate to be installed on Android. 
WorkSpace 
The WorkSpace feature and WorkSpace mobile app are not available in Dell Networking W-ClearPass. This feature is 
only available on the Aruba Networks ClearPass platform. 
ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases | 65
Table 56: Known Issues in WorkSpace 
Bug 
ID Description 
#11152 Symptom/Scenario: The WorkSpace app uses the native iOS email app for sending debug logs. 
Workaround: Users must configure their native iOS email client in order to send debug logs to the 
administrator. 
#11315 Symptom/Scenario: If “Allow app to email the document” is not enabled, then users cannot send the 
document using the email option in Open-IN. 
Workaround: Select the email application (Ikonic or TouchDown) from the list of applications shown in 
the open-IN dialog. 
#12095 Symptom: Dolphin displays a blank page when a Network Access Policy is applied. 
Scenario: In a Network Access Policy, the type of value specified in the Hostname/IP/range field must 
match that of the Redirect to Server field. 
Workaround: If a hostname is used in the Hostname/IP/range field, then a hostname must be used in 
the Redirect to Server field. Similarly, if IP/range is used, it must be used in both fields. 
#12683 Insight reporting is not supported for WorkSpace in 6.2 or 6.3. 
#12726 Symptom/Scenario: A user search for a location on a map might appear to give the wrong coordinates. 
In fact, for geo-fencing coordinates, when multiple results are returned for a search string, the first result 
returned is used. 
#12739 Symptom/Scenario: Accessing self-signed certificate Web sites via HTTPS does not work with Dolphin 
for the Aruba App. If the user clicks to accept the certificate when prompted, the page loading process 
goes into a loop and the screen flickers. 
Workaround: Add the certificate to the trusted store before accessing the resource. 
#12752 Symptom: On some devices, the Box app might not show the 'Use' option after capturing a video. 
Scenario: This situation can occur with policy-enabled apps. It does not occur with personal apps. 
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. 
#14654 Symptom: WorkSpace cannot detect and prevent cloud apps such as Box from providing the option to 
email a document within the application that uses email on the server. 
Scenario: If sharing is not disabled, files can be sent to any outside users from the registered email 
account. 
Workaround: The IT administrator should disable the Share option in Box. 
#14758 Symptom: An error page or a Google search page is displayed when a URL is tapped in an email 
application. 
Scenario: This occurs if Dolphin is configured as the default browser and the hostname URL is selected 
from a policy-enabled app. When a URL is tapped in a policy-enabled email application, WorkSpace opens 
the link in the policy-enabled browser. If the destination is 
an internal resource and if the VPN is not connected, then an error page or a Google search page is 
displayed. 
Workaround: Refresh the page after the VPN connection is established. 
#14992 Symptom/Scenario: When a File is uploaded to Box from another application, the preview for the file 
may not be displayed correctly. 
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. 
#15228 Symptom: The Enforce Apps up to date option does not work on the client in this version. 
Workaround: The user should manually check for updates to third-party applications. 
#16123 Symptom: Devices and users cannot be deleted from WorkSpace. 
Scenario: The Delete button removes the device or user from the page but not from the database, and 
the device or user is displayed again when the page is reloaded.

Bug 
ID Description 
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. 
#16428 Symptom: Changing the value of “Minimum SDK version for partner apps” in a WorkSpace Policy will 
make all provisioned WorkSpace apps unusable. 
Scenario: This situation occurs in all WorkSpace apps assigned the WorkSpace policy in which the 
Minimum SDK version for partner apps field is changed. This field is in WorkSpace Configuration > 
WorkSpace > [WorkSpace Settings] > Edit > iOS Devices. 
Workaround: Delete and reinstall WorkSpace to update the user device ID. 
#17160 ADCS is currently not supported for MDM and WorkSpace. 
#20537 Symptom/Scenario: After migration from 6.2 to 6.3, the Aruba browser might not work correctly. 
Workaround: Update the WorkSpace App Catalogue and push the Default iOS App Policy Template.

  • 13. Chapter 2 Upgrade and Update Information This chapter provides considerations and instructions for upgrading or updating your ClearPass application: l The term “upgrade” refers to moving from one major release version to another—for example, from 6.2.x to 6.3.x. For information on upgrading from a version prior to 6.3, see "Upgrading to ClearPass 6.3 from 6.1.x or 6.2.x" on page 13. l The term “update” refers to applying a patch release within the same major version—for example, from 6.3.5 to 6.3.6. For information on updating from an earlier 6.3.x release to 6.3.6, see "Updating to the Latest 6.3.x from an Earlier 6.3.x Release" on page 15. Upgrading to ClearPass 6.3 from 6.1.x or 6.2.x An upgrade is the process of moving from one major release version to another—for example, from 6.2.x to 6.3. This section describes accessing upgrade images, considerations to be aware of, and instructions for restoring the log database after the upgrade (optional). You can upgrade to ClearPass 6.3 from ClearPass 6.1.x or 6.2.x and then apply the 6.3.6 update. Before you proceed with the upgrade, we recommend that you apply the latest available patch updates to your current release. For information on the patch update procedure, see "Updating to the Latest 6.3.x from an Earlier 6.3.x Release" on page 15. l Upgrade images are available within ClearPass Policy Manager from the Software Updates portal at Administration > Agents and Software Updates > Software Updates. l For appliance upgrades from 5.2.0, upgrade to the latest 6.1 or 6.2 before upgrading to 6.3. The 6.1 and 6.2 upgrade images are available for download on the Support site under ClearPass > Policy Manager > Archives. l Direct upgrades from versions prior to ClearPass 6.1.x are not supported. Customers with versions earlier than 6.1.0 must upgrade to the latest 6.1.x, 6.2.x, or 6.2.x VM version first before upgrading to 6.3. MySQL is supported in CPPM 6.0.x and greater. Aruba does not ship drivers for MySQL by default. Customers who require MySQL can contact Aruba support to get the required patch. Users should be aware that this patch does not persist across upgrades, so customers using MySQL should contact support before they upgrade. Before You Upgrade Before you begin the upgrade process, please review the following important items: l Plan downtime accordingly. Upgrades can take longer (several hours) depending on the size of your configuration database. A large number of audit records (hundreds of thousands) due to MDM integration can significantly increase upgrade times. l Review the VMware disk requirements. These are described in "System Requirements" on page 7 of the About ClearPass 6.3.5 chapter. l Any log settings that were modified prior to the upgrade are not retained, and are reset to the default. The administrator should configure any custom log settings again after the upgrade. Log Database and Access Tracker records are not restored as part of the upgrade. If required, you can manually restore them after the upgrade. For more information, please review "After You Upgrade" on page 14. ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Upgrade and Update Information | 13
  • 14. l If you have a custom authentication source configured to use the session log database, additional steps are required after upgrade. You have such an authentication source configured if you have a source of type Generic SQL DB in ClearPass Policy Manager > Configuration > Sources with server name localhost or 127.0.0.1 and with the database name tipsLogDb. In such cases, manually restoring the session log database is required after the upgrade completes (see "After You Upgrade" on page 14). Please contact Customer Support for configuration recommendations to move away from using the session log database as an authentication source. l VM only: If you have two disks already loaded with previous ClearPass versions—for example, 6.1 on SCSI 0:1 and 6.2 on SCSI 0:2—then drop the inactive disk before upgrading. You must then add a newer disk that is twice the size of the old disk. The ClearPass installation will partition this disk into two logical volumes. Never remove SCSI 0:0 After You Upgrade To reduce downtime, the default upgrade behavior will now back up Log Database and Access Tracker records but will not restore them as part of the upgrade. If required, you can manually restore them after the upgrade through either the application or the CLI. The session log database contains: l Access Tracker and Accounting records l Event Viewer l ClearPass Guest Application Log The Insight database is not part of the session log database, and will be migrated as part of the upgrade. Restoring the Log DB Through the User Interface To restore the Log DB after upgrade through the UI, restore from the auto-generated upgrade-backup.tar.gz file (available at Administration > Server Manager > Local Shared Folders). The restoration process could take several hours, depending on the size of your session log database. All services are accessible and will handle requests during the restoration, but there will be a performance impact while the restoration is in progress. We recommend that you perform this operation during a planned change window. The restoration process will continue in the background even if the UI is closed or the session times out. A “Restore complete” event is logged in the Event Viewer when the restoration is complete. This process needs to be repeated on each server in the cluster that should retain the session log database. 1. Go to Administration > Server Manager > Server Configuration and click Restore for the server. 2. In the Restore Policy Manager Database window, select the File is on server option, and select the upgrade-backup.tar.gz file. 3. Also select the following options: l Restore CPPM session log data (if it exists on the backup) l Ignore version mismatch and attempt data migration l Do not back up the existing databases before this operation 4. Uncheck the Restore CPPM configuration data option. 5. Click Start. 14 | Upgrade and Update Information ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
  • 15. Restoring the Log DB Through the CLI To restore the Log Database after the upgrade process is complete, use the restore command. Go to Administration > Server Manager > Local Shared Folders and download the upgrade-backup.tar.gz file. Host the file at a scp or http location accessible from the ClearPass server and execute the command restore <location/upgrade-backup.tar.gz> -l –i –b. The restoration process could take several hours depending on the size of your session log database. All services are accessible and handling requests during the restoration, but there will be a performance impact while the restoration is in progress. We recommend that you perform this operation during a planned change window. The restoration process will abort if the CLI session is closed or times out. We recommend that you initiate the restoration from the User Interface, especially if you have a large number of Access Tracker and Accounting records. This process needs to be repeated on each server in the cluster that should retain the session log database. The restore command syntax is as follows: Usage: restore user@hostname:/<backup-filename> [-l] [-i] [-b] [-c] [-r] [-n|-N] [-s] restore http://hostname/<backup-filename>[-l] [-i] [-b] [-c] [-e] [-n|-N] [-s] restore <backup-filename> [-l] [-i] [-b] [-c] [-r] [-n|-N] [-s] -b -- do not backup current config before restore -c -- restore CPPM configuration data -l -- restore CPPM session log data as well if it exists in the backup -r -- restore Insight data as well if it exists in the backup -i -- ignore version mismatch and attempt data migration -n -- retain local node config like certificates etc. after restore (default) -N -- do not retain local node config after restore -s -- restore cluster server/node entries from backup. The node entries will be in disabled state on restore Updating to the Latest 6.3.x from an Earlier 6.3.x Release An update is the process of applying a minor patch release within the same major version—for example, from 6.3.5 to 6.3.6. Updates are available from the Software Updates page in ClearPass Policy Manager. This section describes how to install a patch update either through the user interface or as an offline update. When you install the patch on a cluster, update the Publisher first before applying the update on Subscriber nodes. During a patch update, the log database is migrated. No extra steps are needed to retain the session log history during a patch update. If you are installing the patch through the Software Updates portal of the CPPM UI, the update progress indicator might stall. If this happens, refresh the browser window to show the updated progress. Installation Instructions Through the User Interface If access is allowed to the Web service, ClearPass servers will show the latest patch update on the Software Updates portal: 1. In ClearPass Policy Manager, go to Administration > Agents and Software Updates > Software Updates. 2. In the Firmware and Patch Updates area, find the latest patch update and click the Download button in its row. ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Upgrade and Update Information | 15

  • 21. Chapter 4 Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases This chapter provides a brief summary of the features and enhancements introduced in previous ClearPass 6.3.x releases. Features and Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases This section provides detailed information about changes to each functionality area. Issue tracking IDs are included when available. Policy Manager l New service parameters are available to enable a Host header check, which allows Web access to valid CPPM entities (IP Address, HostNames, Virtual IPs). Custom host names can be added to the default whitelisted names. (#25020) l A new configuration option, “Always use NETBIOS name”, was added for the Active Directory authentication source. The default value of this option is false. When this option is enabled, the NETBIOS name configured in the authentication source takes precedence over the domain part of a username (if any) in the authentication request. If this option is not enabled, the domain part of a username in the authentication request takes precedence over the NETBIOS name. (#23816) l Support was added for the ability to add a banner to the ClearPass Policy Manager and ClearPass Guest login pages and the CLI. The banner can be used to notify users of any Web site access restrictions due to government regulations. (#13304) l A Password Type attribute was added to the Generic SQL DB authentication sources to support RADIUS authentications when the authentication source contains passwords in cleartext, SHA, SHA256, NT Hash or LM Hash formats. (#19778) l The Remote Assistance session feature now enables the TAC engineer to view the customer's ClearPass Administration UI as part of being able to login to arubasupport shell. (#20707) l Support was added for redirection to a configured ClearPass Portal landing page when the user goes to https://CPPM-Server. This is in addition to the existing redirect support for http://CPPM-Server. (#20869) l The Access Tracker will show an alert if more than two anti-malware products are detected on the client. (#20900) l Palo Alto integration is now extended to Guest MAC Caching use cases. When the Session Restriction Enforcement Profile for a Palo Alto user ID update is configured with “Session-Check::Username = % {Endpoint:Username}”, PostAuth will send the Guest username instead of the MAC Address in the user ID updates. (#20996) l CPPM 6.x changed the format of the configuration files written when CPPM is joined to an AD Domain. Migration of these files from the 5.x format to the 6.x format is not possible because administrator credentials are required, and these are not stored on CPPM. If you are upgrading from 5.x to 6.3, then you must leave the AD domain and then re-join after the upgrade is complete. (#10516) l End-to-end RADIUS authentication testing capability was added at Configuration > Policy Simulation to aid in troubleshooting and diagnostics. It includes Basic RADIUS auth via radclient, EAP-TLS RADIUS auth via eapol_test, and Active Directory/MSCHAPv2 tests. (#10571) ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases | 21
  • 22. l The Monitoring > Live Monitoring > System Monitor page now includes additional I/O performance graphs. (#11980) l Added support for ClearPass to act as a SAML identity provider (IdP). (#12195) l A new tab, ClearPass, was added to the Monitoring > Live Monitoring > System Monitor page. The graphs on this tab provide statistics on time taken and counts for service categorization, authentication, authorization, role mapping, posture validation, audit scan, enforcement, and end-to-end request processing. (#12329) l You can now use the Access Tracker to select the node zones as a selection server/domain field and restrict search on the nodes in the zone. At Monitoring > Live Monitoring > Access Tracker, click the session’s row in the list and click Edit. In the Select Server/Domain field, select the default (2 servers). (#12332) l Separate certificates can now be used for Web logins and RADIUS 802.1x. (#12383) l The system Monitor page is enhanced to provide system monitoring information for various network services and ClearPass performance. The information includes: (#12393) n Authentication and authorization counters n Authentication and authorization delays n Request processing delays n Network traffic information (RADIUS, TACACS+, Database, SSH, NTP, HTTP/HTTPS, OnGuard, etc.) n CPU load information l ClearPass Policy Manager now supports Suite B cryptographic algorithms. (#12635, #17075, #17454) l An IETF CoA template was added to allow an IETF profile to be associated with and dispatched from the CoA module, with no dependencies on the selected NAS vendor. (#12923, #18751) l The Monitoring > Blacklisted Users page allows users to view the list of users who are no longer eligible to access your network. This monitoring page also shows whether the following attributes have been exceeded: - Bandwidth limit - Session count - Session duration. (#13029) l An online/offline status indicator for endpoint devices was added to Configuration > Identity > Endpoints > Edit Endpoint and to Monitoring > Live Monitoring > Access Tracker > Request Details. (#13550) l New templates were added to the Configuration > Service Template page. (#14177) l This version of Policy Manager includes an improved method for fetching data from MDM vendors. The Policy Manager Endpoint Context Server (MDM) integration now includes the following additional support: (#14392) n Data retrieval via paging n Ability to change URLs used for API calls to MDM vendors n Refresh data from a specific MDM vendor l Evaluation customers can now convert their evaluation VMs to a production SKU. This migration upgrades using a single disk. In addition, any configurations made during the evaluation period will be retained after converting to a production SKU. (#14509, #16631) l The Event Viewer now includes events related to the RAID controller state. Note that this feature is only available for CP-HW-5K and CP-HW-25K SKUs. (#14706) l An advanced option in the domain joining interface can provide explicit domain controller information to Samba, assisting the user to control what domain controllers CPPM will use for authentications. (#14738) 22 | Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
  • 23. l When editing the Server Configuration page, the Keep Alive Configuration default values now display on the Service Parameters page for the ClearPass system services. (#15018) l CPPM can now disconnect the client from the network when connectivity with OnGuard is lost, and a Change of Authorization (CoA) will be sent. (#14079) This is accomplished through the Post Auth Session Restriction Enforcement Profile and by adding: Session-Check::Agent-Connection = Down Post-Auth-Check::Action = Disconnect. This Enforcement Profile should be sent as a part of OnGuard authentication and will take effect when the OnGuard session ends. l Added the ability to verify whether an Active Directory account has expired. (#15552) l Usernames are no longer case-sensitive. (#15809) l A new option was added to the Collect Logs feature in the UI and CLI. When selected, a backup of the configuration without password fields is generated as part of the logs generated. (#15985) l Users can now perform backup and restore operations on just the data within Insight or another application without affecting other CPPM configurations. (#15987) l CPPM now includes new App Auth templates for ClearPass Onboard and ClearPass Guest (App Auth is now the default for guest Web login pre-authentication checks and Onboard authorization checks). (#16018, #16019) l The Identity > Onboard Devices and Identity > Guest Users pages have been removed from Policy Manager. These features are now exclusively managed through ClearPass Guest. (#16023) l The attributes Aruba-AirGroup-Shared-Group and Aruba-User-Group were added to the Aruba RADIUS dictionary. (#16083) l Time zone settings now account for daylight savings time (DST) changes in Morocco and Israel. Morocco does not observe DST during Ramadan. Therefore, Morocco switches to Western European Time (WET) on July 7, and then reverts to Western European Summer Time (WEST) on August 10. Also, the period of DST in Israel has been extended until the last Sunday in October beginning in 2013. (#16103) l To support more user, group, role, and location attributes, long values (greater than 247 characters) for RADIUS attributes can now be split across multiple consecutive AirGroup vendor-specific attributes. This applies to the following Aruba vendor-specific attributes: (#16116, #16110) n Aruba-Location-Id (string) n Aruba-AirGroup-Shared-User (string) n Aruba-AirGroup-Shared-Role (string) n Aruba-AirGroup-Shared-Group (string) l Administrators can now control whether Guest account passwords are displayed in CPPM. The Admin privileges supports the allowPasswords setting to be set to either true or false. The default is false, which hides passwords for Guest accounts already configured in the Guest Users UI. This administrator privilege can also create and update Guest accounts with new passwords. (#16122) l Policy Manager now supports receiving device profile information directly from supported Cisco infrastructure. Leveraging the Cisco device sensor technology requires HW running IOS 15.0 (SE1) (#16326 l Policy Manager now supports connecting one of its network interfaces into a network SPAN/Mirror port enabling device profiling based on DHCP traffic. (#16328) l Security enhancements ensure that no Admin user can view users’ credentials. Additionally, the Guest Users page has been removed from Policy Manager > Configuration > Identity. (#16337) ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases | 23
  • 24. l Added the ability for administrators to override some attributes of the profiled status of an endpoint. On the Configuration > Identity > Endpoints > Edit Endpoint form, the user can edit the device category, family, and name. This can be used in the occasional situations where multiple device types share the same DHCP fingerprint and might be miscategorized. (#16364) l Support was added for real-time services for asynchronous events in ClearPass, providing users faster access in situations such as integration with third-party firewalls. (#16392) l For Palo Alto Networks Devices, the External Context Servers configuration page includes a new check box to indicate whether the GlobalProtect license is installed on them. If this check box is selected, CPPM sends an HIP report for the logged-in users to the configured Palo Alto Network Devices.

(#19261) l Customers converting from Amigopod can now continue to use their existing page URLs without modification—for example, /guest_register.php does not need to be modified to guest/guest_ register.php. (#19277) Insight l Insight’s alert emails are enhanced to make it easier to identify event details. At Search > Search Alerts, new columns match the alert conditions to the body of the email message, making it easier to find details such as when the alert was triggered or how many failures were seen within a time window. (#11055) ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases | 27
  • 28. l Insight is enhanced to customize columns when searching records. You can drag and drop the Available Columns to Selected Columns to get the desired search results. For administrators, the search options selected on each template are saved and can be viewed at the next login. (#11110) l The Insight UI is enhanced to provide an option to import a report/alert template on a running system. This is useful to provide new reports without waiting for CPPM releases. A new Select file to import parameter is added under the Import Insight Template container in the Administration tab. (#15988) l Insight introduced a master-slave cluster model for replicating configuration. If multiple nodes have Insight enabled, one node can be configured as a master and others can be configured as slaves. If no node is configured as master, replication will be turned off. A new Replicate button is introduced in the Administration tab to configure across the cluster nodes. Only a single node can be configured as a master. (#16456) l Insight provides the capability to run a search and filter the reports without creating new reports or adding new fields to an existing report. Now you can filter the search results by NAD IP, CPPM node IP, and hostnames. (#16837) l Insight is enhanced to provide search results listed in rows to view additional information that is retrieved from the database for a selected user, device, or session in the popup window. The popup window displays the following information based on the selected template: (#16860) n User Information n Device Information n Session Information n Network Information n Policy Information l The Insight Dashboard is enhanced to make it more interactive, and it provides an aggregated view of authentication events for a cluster.

  • 31. n Window Defender 4.x (Windows) l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent now shows the date and time for events in Health Status messages. (#23705) l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent on Mac OS X is now relaunched automatically if it detects a change in the application mode. (#23295) l Windows Event Viewer log entries are now included in OnGuard logs. When the ClearPass Agent Controller is started or stopped, this provides the ability to verify whether it was a manual change or due to an issue. (#21478) l The Retry button can now be hidden on the client. (#21625) l A new Health Check Interval (in hours) attribute was added to the Onguard Agent enforcement profile. Administrators can use this attribute to define different Health Check Quiet Periods for different users, such as students or staff. The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent gives preference to the Health Check Quiet Period value received in the enforcement profile over the value configured in Global Agent Settings. If the Health Check Quiet Period value is not configured in the enforcement profile, the Global Agent Settings value is used instead. (#19371) l A new Health Logs option was added under the Diagnostic tab. The health logs display diagnostic logs related to OnGuard health checks and CPPM server reachability on various network interfaces. This option is available on both Windows and Mac OS X. (#19385, #20898) l The following items were added: (#20272) n A new field for Registry Keys to let you specify a custom message for failed Registry Key Checks n A Monitor Mode for the Registry Key Health Class n Registry Key Health Class Posture Check results in Access Tracker > Output tab > Posture Evaluation Results section l In previous versions, the OnGuard Agent sent two WebAuth requests if any of the following health classes were configured: (#20896) n Installed Applications n Processes n Registry n Services n Windows Hotfixes Now the OnGuard Agent will send two WebAuth requests only the first time after installation. After that, the OnGuard Agent will send only one WebAuth request having information of the health classes listed above, and will do so only in the case of agent restart, machine restart, or user login/logout. For Mac OS X, this is applicable for the following health classes: n Installed Applications n Processes n Services l OnGuard’s backend service will not collect health if the OnGuard Agent (front end) is not running. This will reduce OnGuard CPU usage on client machines. (#20945) l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent introduced a new Virtual Machine health class for Mac OS X. (#14027) ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Enhancements in Previous 6.3.x Releases | 31
  • 32. l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent introduced a new Network Connections health class for Mac OS X that provides configuration to control network connections based on connection type. (#14030) l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent introduced a new Installed Applications health class on Mac OS X and Windows OS. With the introduction of this new health class, an administrator can configure what applications should be present or not present on clients. Auto-remediation is not supported for the Installed Applications health class. (#14033, #14036) l The Enforcement Policy rules now include Per-Application-Based posture enforcement policies, based on the results of the individual Application Posture Tokens (APTs) of the health classes configured in the Internal Posture Policy. (#14080) l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent now supports detection and installation of missing patches for patch management agents such as System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) or Microsoft Windows Update Agent on Windows. A new option, Install Level Check, was added for Patch Management Health Class having the values “No Check,” “All,” “Selected on Server,” and “Security.” Based on the value of the Install Level Check, OnGuard Agent checks missing patches and, if auto-remediation is enabled, OnGuard downloads and installs missing patches. Note: This feature is verified with Microsoft Windows Update Agent. (#15737, #12616) l Currently, when a user clicks Retry/Logout, that user stays in a healthy VLAN; however, OnGuard stops monitoring the client health. To avoid this, OnGuard bounces the interface after a default of 5 minutes from when the user quits the OnGuard Agent. Now OnGuard provides the ablility to configure the number of minutes that should elapse before OnGuard bounces interfaces when OnGuard remains disconnected after Logout/Quit. A new parameter, Delay to bounce after Logout (in minutes), is introduced in Global Agent Settings. (#15738) l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent can automatically upgrade when a newer version is available on the CPPM server. A new Agent action is introduced to determine what the OnGuard Agent should perform when an update is available. The options Ignore, Notify User, and Download and Install are available. This feature is only available with OnGuard Agent versions 6.3 and above. (#16756) l Currently, all the configured health classes in a posture policy are evaluated and the evaluation result is used in determining the overall health state of the posture policy. In some cases, the administrator might want to collect information for these health classes but not want the clients to be treated as unhealthy. A new Monitor Mode option is added for the Windows Hotfixes health class to fix this issue. If Monitor Mode is enabled, then the health status of the Windows Hotfixes health class is set to healthy. (#16898) l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent provides the ability for an administrator to configure the desired period (in hours) for OnGuard to avoid health checks after a client is deemed healthy. The roles and client health status are cached separately, ensuring that the client health status is not deleted if RADIUS authentication fails. A new parameter, OnGuard Health Check Interval (in hours), is introduced in Global Agent Settings. The default value is 0 to make sure that the health checks are not avoided. This parameter is supported only by the OnGuard Agent in Health Only mode for wired and wireless interfaces. It is not supported by the dissolvable agent or for VPN-type interfaces. (#17662, #12517) l The ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent for Mac OS X and for Windows is now localized in Japanese. The OnGuard UI can display text in the language that is selected during installation. (#17899, #13136) l The online help now includes links to charts of the third-party software OnGuard supports. Charts are included for antivirus, antispyware, firewall, disk encryption, peer-to-peer, patch management, and virtual machine products. To access the support charts, go to Administration > Agents and Software Updates > OnGuard Settings, click the Help link to open the OnGuard Settings topic, and then click the right arrow to navigate to the OnGuard Agent Support Charts subtopic.

All the Web apps configured in WorkSpace use the Aruba proprietary browser published in the app store. (#16757) l Added the ability to check whether a device is actively managed by MDM before allowing access to WorkSpace and WorkSpace managed apps. If the device is not MDM managed, it will be blocked from using WorkSpace or the WorkSpace managed apps. (#17445) l Added single sign-on (SSO) login support for Enterprise apps in Aruba WorkSpace. With SSO enabled, the user can log in to WorkSpace and gain access to all WorkSpace apps without being prompted to log in again. WorkSpace uses an NTLM/Basic or form-based authentication for SSO. With NTLM/Basic authentication, users can authorize with the servers without using a password. With form-based authentication, users must enter their username, password, and/or domain name in the HTML form. (#18143) l The following preconfigured MDM actions are available on AW and MI devices: (#20056) n Send Message n Send Message (Parameterized) n Lock Device n Unlock Device n Clear Passcode n Get Application n Get Labels To configure these actions in WClearPass Policy Manager, go to Configuration > Identity > Endpoints.

AirGroup Table 41: AirGroup Issues Fixed in 6.3.0 Bug ID Description #18272 A new configuration option for the AirGroup controller allows the timeout value to be specified when getting configuration information from the device. This defaults to 15 seconds (up from 5 seconds in previous releases) but might need to be increased further if the controller is a master controller with many APs configured, or if network conditions require additional delay. Dissolvable Agent Table 42: Dissolvable Agent Issues Fixed in 6.3.0 Bug ID Description #7165 To have Health data collection work correctly in 64bit Windows 7, please use the JRE version provided by CPPM. It can be downloaded from the following URL(insert the appropriate IP address): https://<CPPM-IP-Address>/agent/html/help.html Guest Table 43: Guest Issues Fixed in 6.3.0 Bug ID Description #14687 The CSS class field available for a custom field set to type “Submit Button” was being ignored when rendering the form. The class will now be included as expected. #15684 If the MAC delimiter for the Mac Auth profile was not set to “dash” ( - ) in the controller, CoA was not sent to the active MAC connection. CoA requests are now correctly sent to the controller regardless of the MAC delimiter setting used on the controller. #15736 Added reporting capabilities for up to 20 custom fields defined in Guest. #15817 Improved support for uploading very large files using the Content Manager. Files may now be uploaded to the maximum allowed upload size without errors or the need to adjust the PHP memory limit. The maximum allowed upload size is specified as two service parameters — “Form POST Size” and “File Upload Size”. #16218 Changed the guest role ID attribute from “[Role ID]” to “Role ID” and removed the ability to configure the attribute name.

Refer to the App Note “Apple Captive Network Assistant Bypass with Amigopod” for details. #16530 Onboard device provisioning pages were sometimes imported as Web login pages. #16666 Unexpected entries in the [Guest Roles] role mapping policy sometimes caused paging issues on the List Accounts page. #16747 Corrected the import of Amigopod 3.9 Network Login Access Setup settings. Operator login allowed and denied networks are now ignored as they are obsolete. #16982 Multiple, identical copies of the same entry could be shown in the Active Sessions list. #17016 User search and autocomplete in the LDAP Sponsor Lookup field would fail with a JavaScript error for certain skins. #17154 The list of accounts and devices shown on the List Accounts and List Devices pages became faulty whenever an invalid condition was added to the [Guest Roles] role mapping policy. Invalid conditions in the [Guest Roles] role mapping policy are now ignored and they no longer affect the List Accounts or List Devices pages. #17420 Corrected a potential security issue regarding the redirect functionality of the “target” field in ClearPass Guest login page authentication. Redirect behavior is now restricted to internal addresses. #17623 Added support for print receipts for mobile and tablet devices. Previously printing was disabled on these kinds of devices, but with modern devices including iOS, Android and Surface, printing is well supported. #17884 Updated the plain text format used when exporting the application log. The text file generated now includes any arguments that were logged, in addition to the existing fields. #18268 The operator profile AirGroup Operator is replaced by Device Registration. There is no longer an AirGroup Administrator operator profile as this functionality exists in the default administrator profile. If desired, a separate operator profile can be created with limited access to the default device registration forms (mac_create, mac_edit, mac_list) to simulate the previous AirGroup Administrator profile. #18277 Create Multiple Guest Accounts will now attempt to find a username that isn’t in use when it generates an existing username. #18546 Japanese characters were not being encoded correctly when used as the subject line for an email message. #18788 Xirrus could not be properly configured as a vendor for a self-registration. #18903 Corrected an issue with the Account Expiration Time field’s calendar button when the browser’s language settings were set to Japanese or Korean. 52 | Issues Fixed in Previous 6.3.x Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes

  • 57. Chapter 6 Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases The following known issues for this release were identified in previous releases. Workarounds are included when possible. For a list of known issues identified in the 6.3.6 release, see the What’s New in This Release chapter. Policy Manager Table 49: Known Issues in Policy Manager Bug ID Description #10881 Symptom/Scenario: Entity updates with PostAuth enforcement fail if the publisher is down. #11744 Symptom: Upgrading from 5.2 to 6.x fails if CPPM is joined to the domain. Scenario: The issue will not be seen if the latest cumulative patch is installed before performing the upgrade. #11906 Symptom/Scenario: The Aruba dictionary becomes disabled by default after upgrading from Policy Manager 4.x to 6.0.1. Workaround: Customers who run into this issue must enable the Aruba dictionary manually from the Administration > Dictionaries page. #12316 Symptom/Scenario: Syslog Filters and Data Filters configuration will be removed after an upgrade. Policy Manager does not carry forward Syslog Filters and Data Filters configuration. Only default data is migrated. #13645 Symptom/Scenario: Authorization attributes are not cached for the Okta authentication source. #13781 Symptom/Scenario: In the 6.1 release, the default unit for the CRL update interval was changed to “hours” from an earlier default unit of “days”. Restoring a 5.x backup on CPPM 6.x causes the update interval to be “hours”. For example, “2 days” in 5.2.0 becomes “2 hours” in 6.1.0. Workaround: Manually change the value in days to the value in hours. In the above example, that would be 48 hours. #13999 #13975 Symptom/Scenario: In order to add or update a PostAuth profile configuration, the admin must first delete old profiles from CPPM, and then add the new/updated profiles. #14186 Symptom: Post auth doesn’t work properly for UNKNOWN endpoints in a MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) flow. Scenario: This has been observed if the user tries to connect using an endpoint that is unknown to CPPM. #14190 Symptom/Scenario: Blacklisted MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) users cannot be blocked using the Blacklist User Repository. Workaround: In order for post auth to work in a MAB flow, a new blacklist repository must be added with a custom filter. #17232 Symptom/Scenario: The error and warning messages returned by the Web service are displayed in English instead of the localized language. #18064 Symptom: AirWatch custom HTTP actions needs content even though it’s not required. Scenario: For AirWatch MDM, custom-defined HTTP actions such as Lock Device or Clear Passcode fail with error messages. This is due to a bug in AirWatch. Workaround: Do either of the following: ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases | 57
  • 58. Bug ID Description l Add a header Content-Length:0 in the Context Server Action. l Add a dummy JSON data {“a”:”b”}. #18701 Symptom/Scenario: Performing an AddNote operation using AirWatch as the MDM connector fails in CPPM. This is due to a bug in AirWatch. #19087 Symptom: The Server Configuration page processes indefinitely while changing the NTP server. Scenario: Occasionally when modifying the NTP settings in CPPM at Administration > Server Manager > Server Configuration, it might not show the progress updates. Workaround: Manually refresh the page. #19176 Symptom/Scenario: CPPM does not currently support posting of Palo Alto Networks (PANW) user ID information when the PAN OS uses Vsys. #19826 Symptom/Scenario: Palo Alto Networks (PANW) devices will only accept the backslash character ( ) as a separator between the domain name and the username. #20139 Symptom/Scenario: Currently, if the remote SSH (Remote Assist feature) browser window is kept open without any activity for more than half an hour, the window becomes unresponsive and there is no indication that it has timed out. This is the page seen by Support Engineers; not the customer's UI. #20293 Symptom: The subscriber join to cluster fails. Scenario: In rare cases DB migration results in some bad data being carried over from an earlier version to 6.3. Workaround: Share the backup with Customer Advocacy team, who will analyze and provide steps to manually clean up bad data. #20383 Symptom/Scenario: The system posture status may still be maintained after Post Auth agent disconnect action. This is likely to happen when Posture result cache timeout service parameter is higher than the Lazy handler polling frequency. #20416 Symptom: The Palo Alto Networks (PANW) operating system firewall rejects user ID updates from CPPM when the user ID limit is reached on the firewall. When this happens, user ID updates are rejected with errors. Scenario: This occurs when the PANW firewall exceeds its supported limit advertised for user ID registration. Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. #20453 Symptom/Scenario: If profiling is not turned on, CPPM is not able post the HIP report with complete data to Palo Alto devices. #20455 When doing an SSO & ASO flow in Safari browsers, the certificate needs to be added in the trust list of the browser. Please follow these steps: 1. Open the Safari browser and enter the SP URL. 2. After you enter the SSO application in the browser, the Show Certificate option is provided in a popup window. 3. Click Show Certificate and select the Always trust “FQDN of SP machine” when connecting to IPaddress check box, and then click the Continue button. #20456 Symptom: SNMP bounce fails. Scenario: When only the SNMP bounce in the SNMP Enforcement profile of a Web auth service is configured, SNMP bounce functionality does not work. Workaround: Also configure a VLAN ID along with the SNMP bounce in the SNMP enforcement profile. #20484 Symptom: Dropping the Subscriber and then adding it back to the cluster may fail at times. Scenario: CPPM system time might not have been synchronized with an NTP source. 58 | Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
  • 59. Bug ID Description Workaround: Configure an NTP server. CPPM will synchronize its time with the NTP source. Attempt the cluster operation. #20489 Symptom/Scenario: CPPM 6.3 does not allow a server certificate with a Key Length of 512 bits as seen in the Self-Signed Certificate and Certificate Signing Request UIs. Earlier CPPM versions did not have this restriction, hence their server certificate may use one with a 512 bit Public Key. After upgrade, these servers will not work properly. Workaround: The admin must manually fix the server certificate to allow a minimum of 1024 bits long Public Key prior to upgrade. #20522 Symptom: An XML response in AirWatch version 6.5.1.2 produces endpoint discovery issues, causing CPPM to discover only one endpoint. Scenario: The issue is specific to the 6.5.1.2 version of AirWatch. #20943 Symptom: After upgrading from 6.2.0 to 6.3.0, the WorkSpace Attributes under Service Rules, Role Mapping, and Enforcement Policy Rules are not updated. Scenario: In 6.2, under Enforcement Policy > Rules, the WorkSpace Dictionary Items are used with Application:WorkSpace:<Attribute>. In 6.3 this is changed to Application:ClearPass:<Attributes>. #21015 Symptom/Scenario: SNMP v3 read with non-privileged security levels (NOAUTHNOPRIV and AUTHNOPRIV) is allowed even if the AUTHPRIV security level is selected. #21334 Symptom: CPPM does not launch. Scenario: The W-ClearPass user interface will not launch from Firefox or from older versions of Internet Explorer (IE) browsers if an EC-based HTTPS server certificate is used. On Firefox, the error message "Secure Connection Failed. An error occurred during a connection to <server>. Certificate type not approved for application" is displayed. On older versions of IE, the error message "Internet Explorer cannot display the Web page" is displayed. Workaround: Use the latest version of IE or use the Chrome browser instead. #21444 Symptom: The CPPM Administrator UI is not accessible after upgrading to 6.3.0. Scenario: This occurs only if the private key provided for the CPPM Server Certificate in the earlier version is not PKCS12 format, or if the key length is less than 1024 bits. Workaround: Follow these steps: 1. Before upgrading to 6.3.0, export the Server Certificate and save it. 2. Create a new self-signed certificate and make sure the key length is at least 1024 bits long, and then update the Server Certificate. 3. Proceed with the upgrade. 4. After the upgrade, log in to the Admin UI and import the Server Certificate that was saved in step 1. In case these steps were not done before the upgrade, boot back to the older version partition and follow these steps. #22023 Symptom/Scenario: Launching the customer's ClearPass user interface through Proxy does not work on the Internet Explorer or Safari browsers. Workaround: Use the Chrome or Firefox browser instead. #23418 Symptom/Scenario: If a CoA is sent for a device that has been removed from the endpoint repository, the Access Tracker shows errors that are hard to understand. A clear error message to the effect of “Device not present in Endpoint Repository” should be shown instead. #23478 Symptom/Scenario: When a new HTTPS server certificate is uploaded, it is not automatically used as the SAML IdP signing certificate. Workaround: Restart the “System auxiliary services” service. #23505 Symptom/Scenario: In Syslog Export Filters, when RADIUS.Acct fields are combined with Common attributes, duplicate Syslog records are generated. ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases | 59
  • 60. Bug ID Description Workaround: Use custom SQL to avoid duplicate Syslog records. #23581 Symptom: A database connection error occurs in Access Tracker UIs when updated to 6.3.2 with MD2 server certificates. Scenario: This is a database connection problem because of the MD2 certificate available for PostgreSQL. MD2 is not supported. Workaround: After updating to 6.3.2 (patch installation from 6.3.0), if Access Tracker or Analysis & Trending show errors relating to database query errors, it can be due to an invalid Server Certificate. Go to Server Certificate and select the certificate for the server and RADIUS service. Click View Details for each certificate in the chain. Look for the Signature Algorithm and check to see if it uses MD2. Download the certificate that is MD5 or SHA1-based algorithm to replace the MD2 algorithm from the corresponding Certificate Authority site. From the Support shell, restart the cpass-postgresql service. #23593 Symptom: The device registration flow is affected after upgrade to 6.3.2. Scenario: After upgrading to 6.3.2 from 6.1.x or 6.2.x, the Device Registration role is not updated in enforcement profiles, resulting in enforcements not happening as expected. Workaround: Manually update the Enforcement Policy rules to use [Device Registration] instead of [MACTrac Operator] for affected policies. #23625 Symptom: Restoring the log DB in 6.3.2 overwrites existing event viewer entries. Scenario: In 6.3.2, restoring the log database alone (without configuration database restoration) from a backup results in the Event Viewer entries being overwritten with the ones from the backup. This has occurred in cases where the log database is restored manually after the upgrade. Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. #23848 Symptom: The ClearPass server’s time setting might sometimes be off by as much as eight hours. Scenario: This is due to a known issue with VMware tools, which periodically checks and synchs time between the host and the guest operating systems. This issue is documented by VMware at http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic= %2Fcom.vmware.vmtools.install.doc%2FGUID-C0D8326A- B6E7-4E61-8470-6C173FDDF656.html. Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. Dissolvable Agent Table 50: Known Issues in the Dissolvable Agent Bug ID Description #18031 Symptom: The OnGuard Web Agent does not work with Chrome on Mac OS X with Java 7 installed. Scenario: This occurs when Java 7 is installed. Java 7 is released as 64-bit binaries; the Java plugin will not work in Chrome, which currently has a 32-bit version. Workaround: The Web agent works fine with Firefox-23.x or later versions. Use the Firefox browser for the Web agent until Chrome resolves 64-bit support for Mac OS X. #18230 Symptom/Scenario: The ClearPass OnGuard dissolvable agent might not work properly if the client machine runs on two different Java versions—for example, Java 6 and Java 7. Workaround: Uninstall the old Java component if it exists and keep the latest Java version. #20191 The OnGuard applet needs to run in Safari's “Unsafe mode” to perform health checks. To enable this, in Safari go to Preferences > Security > Manage Website Settings > Java > [Select IP/hostname of ClearPass server] and select Run in Unsafe Mode in the drop-down list. 60 | Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
  • 61. Bug ID Description #20514 Client health checks might not work if the client is not running the latest Java version. #23253 Symptom/Scenario: Launching the Web Agent applet using some Java versions (7u55 and above) displays the security warning “This web site is requesting access and control of the Java application shown above. Allow access only if you trust the web site...” Workaround: Click Allow to let the health checks proceed. Guest Table 51: Known Issues in Guest Bug ID Description #9967 Symptom/Scenario: Unicode SMS messages (UTF-16 encoded) are limited to 70 Unicode characters. The ClearPass Guest user interface still displays 160 characters as the limit. Sending a Unicode SMS message over 70 characters may fail if the SMS service provider does not support multi-part SMS messages. Workaround: If you plan to use Unicode SMS messages, check your SMS receipt carefully to ensure it is not over 70 characters in length. Insight Table 52: Known Issues in Insight Bug ID Description #11827 Insight is not supported in Internet Explorer 8 (IE8). #12096 Editing a report to select some columns for analytics overwrites/replaces the chosen columns for the corresponding report. #12159 Insight reports do not show license changes immediately. The changes might take up to 24 hours, depending on when the changes are made. #13980 Columns with non-ASCII values are missing in PDF reports. #19507 PDF & HTML Data Tables are not created if the CSV file size is larger than 1MB, although the generated PDF and HTML reports include analytics if configured on the report.

  • 62. Onboard Table 53: Known Issues in Onboard Bug ID Description #9897 ClearPass Onboard does not update the Policy Manager endpoints table with an endpoint record when provisioning an iOS 5 device. This is because the iOS 5 device does not report its MAC address to ClearPass Onboard during device provisioning. #7627 PSK networks cannot be configured for iOS or Android devices in this release. #10127 Auto-reconnect does not work for Mac OS X 10.7. This client will reconnect using the original credentials that were used to connect to the SSID (PEAP instead of TLS). This happens even if the “Remember this Network” option is NOT selected when connecting to the provisioning network. #10667 When using Onboard to provision an OS X system with a system profile, the administrator must select the appropriate certificate when connecting to the provisioned network for the first time. The administrator should also ensure that the system's network settings are configured to automatically prefer connecting to the provisioned network, if the intent is for non-administrator users to always use that network. The process to provision an OS X system with a system profile is: 1. The administrator should log in to the OS X system and connect to the provisioning SSID. 2. Do not select “Remember this network.” 3. Use Onboard to provision the device with an EAP-TLS profile, ignoring the username/password prompt. 4. Connect to the provisioned network, selecting EAP-TLS as the mode and selecting the provisioned certificate, but ignoring the username field. 5. When the system connects and authorizes to the network, use Network Preferences to place the EAP-TLS network first in the priority list. 6. After the administrator logs out, users logging in are connected by EAP-TLS and cannot modify those settings. #20983 Symptom: HTC Android asks the user to enter a certificate name to be installed when onboarding. Scenario: HTC Androids running Android version less than Android 4.3 and greater than Android 2.3 ask the user to enter a name for the certificate to be installed while onboarding. Authentication will fail if the user does not enter the exact certificate name as QuickConnect application instructs in a message prior to the certificate installation dialog. Workaround: None. This issue is due to a limitation in the Android phone’s firmware. #23287 Symptom: Embedding Admin credentials for onboarding does not work in Windows 8 and above. The system hangs and there is no error message. Scenario: When onboarding Windows systems with Windows 8 and above, if operations requiring admin privileges are configured, then the end user doing the onboarding needs to have admin privileges on the system. These operations include installing applications, configuring wired network,s installing certificates in the machine certificate store, and so on. Embedding admin credentials along with the QuickConnect wizard for this purpose does not work for Windows 8 and above. Workaround: There is no workaround. This is a Windows system limitation. OnGuard Memory utilization for W-ClearPass OnGuard depends on the Health Classes configured and the type of Windows OS; however, the minimum requirement for W-ClearPass OnGuard running on a Windows platform is 90 MB. 62 | Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
  • 63. Table 54: Known Issues in OnGuard Bug ID Description #10165 Symptom: ClearPass OnGuard cannot restrict the clients based on Windows service packs. Scenario: If any of the Windows System Health Validator check fails, the health status of the client is set to unhealthy but no SoHR is sent to OnGuard. OnGuard cannot display a specific remediation message; however, the red shield icon is displayed to indicate the client is unhealthy. Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. #11806 ClearPass OnGuard 6.1 does not support Sophos 10.0.4 on Windows XP SP3. #12342 The OnGuard agent fails to collect health on Windows 8 if VMware Server 2.0.2.X is installed. #13164 Symptom: The hardware installation pop-up dialog appears to stop installing the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent for VIA+Onguard mode. A warning message similar to “The software you are installing... has not passed Windows Logo testing” might be displayed during installation. Scenario: This might occur during the installation of the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent on WinXP and Windows 2003 SP2.

Users should first uninstall VIA and then proceed with the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent installation. #15351 Symptom: The state of the Real_Time Scanning button in the Trend Micro Titanium Internet Security for Mac user interface is not updated. Scenario: This is observed when the ClearPass Unified OnGuard Agent has Real Time Protection (RTP). Workaround: Close the UI using Command +Q and restart. #15586 Symptom: The ClearPass OnGuard 6.2 dissolvable agent does not support the following new health classes on Mac OS X: Processes, Patch Management, Peer-To-Peer, Services, USB Devices, and Disk Encryption. The dissolvable agent (DA) does not display these health classes as remediation messages in the user interface because java binary sdk support is not included. Scenario: The client will be unhealthy if any of the health classes listed above are configured and performing a health scan via the DA. #15956 ClearPass OnGuard does not support enabling RTP and start Full System Scan for Microsoft Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 Antivirus. #15986 ClearPass OnGuard returns the product name of “Microsoft Forefront Endpoint protection” AntiVirus as “Microsoft Security Essential”. #16181 Symptom: The command level process can be detected using the path “none”, but the application level process can't be detected by setting the path to “none”.

  • 65. Bug ID Description #19584 In a rare case of an installation binary being corrupted, the installer's behavior will be unpredictable. In such cases the installer can correct itself and error out. One known exception to this behavior is if the installation file is corrupted towards the end (most unlikely), the installer can install the VPN-only version of the application. If this occurs, download a new binary and upgrade the existing installation. #19685 Symptom: After upgrading OnGuard to 6.3, the backend service fails to start and is unable to collect logs. Scenario: This rarely occurs. It has been observed on the Mac 10.6, 10.8, or 10.9 OS after upgrading OnGuard from 6.2.4 or 6.3 to 6.3. Workaround: If the backend service fails to communicate with the plugin, reboot the system after the OnGuard upgrade is complete. #20279 The OnGuard Agent Quit/Force options sometimes do not work on the Mac OS if the machine is restarted while health checks are in progress. #23021 23674 Symptom/Scenario: Adding a new service to Available Services in the ClearPass Linux Universal System Health Validator clears the default services. #20316 OnGuard’s Health Check Quiet Period is applicable per network interface. If a machine has more than one network interface, then each interface will have its own Health Check Quiet Period duration. #23470 Symptom/Scenario: On a Japanese OS, when upgrading from VIA 2.1.1.3 to the ClearPass OnGuard Unified Agent, a known issue with uninstalling VIA displays a message asking the user to select the VIA driver. This does not occur on an English OS. #23636 23635 Symptom: The value of the Posture:Applied Policy attribute is not correctly displayed in the Access Tracker for posture policies carried over from releases earlier than 6.3.0. Scenario: This has been observed when upgrading from 6.2.6 to 6.3.2. Workaround: This can be corrected by manually saving the affected posture policy once after upgrade. #23674 Symptom/Scenario: If a new service is added to the Available Services field for the ClearPass Linux Universal System Health Validator at Configuration > Posture > Posture Policies, the default services are removed. QuickConnect Table 55: Known Issues in QuickConnect Bug ID Description #20867 Symptom/Scenario: Android 4.3 and above fails to install a self signed certificate for the CA certificate. Workaround: For onboarding Android version 4.3 and above, CPPM must have a RADIUS server certificate issued by a proper Certificate Authority and not a self signed certificate. This is a requirement of Android’s API for Wi-Fi management. In Onboard network settings, the CA certificate that issued the server's certificate has to be selected as the trusted root certificate to be installed on Android. WorkSpace The WorkSpace feature and WorkSpace mobile app are not available in Dell Networking W-ClearPass. This feature is only available on the Aruba Networks ClearPass platform.

  • 66. Table 56: Known Issues in WorkSpace Bug ID Description #11152 Symptom/Scenario: The WorkSpace app uses the native iOS email app for sending debug logs. Workaround: Users must configure their native iOS email client in order to send debug logs to the administrator. #11315 Symptom/Scenario: If “Allow app to email the document” is not enabled, then users cannot send the document using the email option in Open-IN. Workaround: Select the email application (Ikonic or TouchDown) from the list of applications shown in the open-IN dialog. #12095 Symptom: Dolphin displays a blank page when a Network Access Policy is applied. Scenario: In a Network Access Policy, the type of value specified in the Hostname/IP/range field must match that of the Redirect to Server field. Workaround: If a hostname is used in the Hostname/IP/range field, then a hostname must be used in the Redirect to Server field. Similarly, if IP/range is used, it must be used in both fields. #12683 Insight reporting is not supported for WorkSpace in 6.2 or 6.3. #12726 Symptom/Scenario: A user search for a location on a map might appear to give the wrong coordinates. In fact, for geo-fencing coordinates, when multiple results are returned for a search string, the first result returned is used. #12739 Symptom/Scenario: Accessing self-signed certificate Web sites via HTTPS does not work with Dolphin for the Aruba App. If the user clicks to accept the certificate when prompted, the page loading process goes into a loop and the screen flickers. Workaround: Add the certificate to the trusted store before accessing the resource. #12752 Symptom: On some devices, the Box app might not show the 'Use' option after capturing a video. Scenario: This situation can occur with policy-enabled apps. It does not occur with personal apps. Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. #14654 Symptom: WorkSpace cannot detect and prevent cloud apps such as Box from providing the option to email a document within the application that uses email on the server. Scenario: If sharing is not disabled, files can be sent to any outside users from the registered email account. Workaround: The IT administrator should disable the Share option in Box. #14758 Symptom: An error page or a Google search page is displayed when a URL is tapped in an email application. Scenario: This occurs if Dolphin is configured as the default browser and the hostname URL is selected from a policy-enabled app. When a URL is tapped in a policy-enabled email application, WorkSpace opens the link in the policy-enabled browser. If the destination is an internal resource and if the VPN is not connected, then an error page or a Google search page is displayed. Workaround: Refresh the page after the VPN connection is established. #14992 Symptom/Scenario: When a File is uploaded to Box from another application, the preview for the file may not be displayed correctly. Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. #15228 Symptom: The Enforce Apps up to date option does not work on the client in this version. Workaround: The user should manually check for updates to third-party applications. #16123 Symptom: Devices and users cannot be deleted from WorkSpace. Scenario: The Delete button removes the device or user from the page but not from the database, and the device or user is displayed again when the page is reloaded. 66 | Known Issues Identified in Previous Releases ClearPass 6.3.6 | Release Notes
  • 67. Bug ID Description Workaround: There is no workaround at this time. #16428 Symptom: Changing the value of “Minimum SDK version for partner apps” in a WorkSpace Policy will make all provisioned WorkSpace apps unusable.
