Antp mail configuration in aruba clearpass

A very specific question!

ANTP (Aruba Network Traffic Policy) is a feature in Aruba ClearPass that allows you to define and enforce network traffic policies. Here's a step-by-step guide to configuring ANTP in Aruba ClearPass:

Prerequisites:

  1. Ensure you have a ClearPass installation with the ANTP feature enabled.
  2. Familiarize yourself with the ClearPass Policy Manager interface.

Configuring ANTP in ClearPass:

  1. Log in to the ClearPass Policy Manager web interface.
  2. Navigate to Policy > ANTP.
  3. Click on New ANTP Policy to create a new policy.
  4. Enter a name and description for the policy.
  5. Select the ANTP Policy Type: Choose from Network Traffic Policy, Application Policy, or User Policy.
  6. Define the Policy Conditions:
    • Source: Select the source IP address or range.
    • Destination: Select the destination IP address or range.
    • Protocol: Choose the protocol (e.g., TCP, UDP, ICMP).
    • Port: Specify the port number or range.
  7. Define the Policy Actions:
    • Allow: Allow traffic to pass through.
    • Block: Block traffic from passing through.
    • Redirect: Redirect traffic to a specific URL or IP address.
  8. Configure any additional settings, such as:
    • Rate Limiting: Limit the amount of traffic allowed.
    • Packet Inspection: Inspect packets for specific content or patterns.
  9. Click Save to save the ANTP policy.

Example ANTP Policy:

Suppose you want to block all traffic from a specific IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.100) to a specific destination IP address (e.g., 8.8.8.8) on port 80 (HTTP).

  1. Create a new ANTP policy with the following settings:
    • Policy Name: Block Traffic to 8.8.8.8
    • Policy Type: Network Traffic Policy
    • Source: 192.168.1.100
    • Destination: 8.8.8.8
    • Protocol: TCP
    • Port: 80
    • Policy Action: Block
  2. Save the policy.

Verification:

To verify that the ANTP policy is working, you can use tools like Wireshark or tcpdump to capture network traffic. You should see that traffic from the specified source IP address to the specified destination IP address on port 80 is being blocked.

Remember to test your ANTP policies in a controlled environment before deploying them in production to ensure they are working as expected.
