Refer to the exhibit. Based on the information, what is the purpose of using [Time Source] for authorization?

Examice · Accepted Answer

The purpose of using [Time Source] for authorization is to check whether the guest account expired. The [Time Source] provides the current time on the ClearPass server, which is compared to the expiration time of the guest account to determine its validity.

Kaldimaar · Answer

[Time Source] is typically used with MAC Caching. The guest account expiration is checked as part of the authentication, not authorization. So I believe the answer should be C.

It's all about time calcultation which seem to be faster and more reliable.
