HPE6-A82 Exam - Question 8


Which fingerprint collectors can help to distinguish between an iPhone and an iPad? (Choose two.)

Show Answer
Correct Answer: BE

To distinguish between an iPhone and an iPad, HTTP and IF-MAP are the most appropriate fingerprint collectors. HTTP can use user-agent strings, which browsers and applications send that provide detailed information about the device type. IF-MAP (Interface for Metadata Access Points) can also help by sending metadata that helps in identifying device characteristics more precisely. Other methods like SNMP, MAC OUI, and TCP header capture are less effective for this specific purpose, as they either provide less detailed information or focus on different aspects of network communication or device identification.

Pretty sure this is B,E In some cases, DHCP fingerprinting alone cannot fully classify a device. A common example is the Apple family of smart devices; for example, DHCP fingerprints cannot distinguish between an iPad and an iPhone. In these scenarios, user-agent strings sent by browsers in the HTTP protocol are useful to further refine classification results. User-agent strings are collected from the following: ClearPass Guest ClearPass Onboard Aruba controller through an IF-MAP (Interface for Metadata Access Points) interface

My Answer B, C. MAC-OUI - shows Apple iPhone when connecting on CPPM so therefore MAC aware of device type. IF-MAP - This feature is used in conjunction with ClearPass Policy Manager. It sends HTTP User Agent Strings and mDNS broadcast information to ClearPass so that it can make more accurate decisions about what types of devices are connecting to the network.
