An IT specialist is trying to create a reliable profile for a new endpoint device using ClearPass. They want to ensure the profiling is as accurate as possible. What approach should they take?
A.
Interface multiple profiling collectors between the client device and ClearPass.
B.
Only the HTTP network function is used to detect device fingerprints.
C.
Rely solely on the DHCP network function for profiling.
Accuracy in profiling is cumulative. Relying solely on one method (like DHCP) can result in "Generic" profiles. By enabling multiple collectors —such as DHCP (for OS discovery), HTTP (for browser/version info), and SNMP (for system description/OID)—ClearPass can correlate data points to provide a 100% certain classification. The more "context" ClearPass receives, the more reliable the final enforcement decision becomes.
