This is because a parameter is a variable that can be defined and modified by the user or the script, and can be used to customize the behavior and output of the NAE script. A parameter can be referred to by using the syntax self ^ramsfname], where ramsfname is the name of the parameter.

By defining a parameter for the RADIUS server, you can make the NAE script more flexible and adaptable to different scenarios and switches. The parameter can be set to a default value, such as cp.acnsxtest.local, but it can also be changed by the user or the script based on the network conditions and requirements. For example, the user can select a different hostname or IP address for the monitored RADIUS server when they create an agent from the script, or the script can automatically detect and update the parameter based on the switch configuration. This way, the NAE script can monitor statistics from any RADIUS server defined on the switch without hard-coding the server name or IP address in the monitor URI.

A. Use this variable, %{radius-ipV when defining the monitor URI in the NAE agent script. This is not a valid recommendation because %{radius-ipV is not a valid variable in NAE scripts. Variables in NAE scripts are prefixed with self ^ramsfname], not with %. Moreover, radius-ipV is not a predefined variable that contains the RADIUS server name or IP address, but rather a generic term that could refer to any IP version.

C. Use a callback action to collect the name of any RADIUS servers defined on the switch at the time the agent is created. This is not a bad recommendation, but it is not as good as defining a parameter. A callback action is a feature that allows an NAE script to execute a command on the switch and collect its output for further processing or display. A callback action can be used to collect the name of any RADIUS servers defined on the switch by executing a command such as show radius-server or show running-config radius-server and parsing its output. However, a callback action might not be as fast or reliable as using a parameter, as it depends on the availability and responsiveness of the switch and its CLI.

D. Make the script editable so that admins can edit it on demand when they are creating scripts. This is not a good recommendation because making the script editable exposes it to potential errors or modifications that could affect its functionality or performance. Making the script editable also requires more effort and expertise from the admins, who might not be familiar with NAE scripting syntax or logic. Moreover, making the script editable does not future proof it, as it does not allow for dynamic changes or updates based on network conditions or requirements.

According to the AOS 10 documentation1, WIDS is a feature that monitors the radio spectrum for the presence of unauthorized, rogue access points and the use of wireless attack tools. WIDS can be configured at different levels, such as low, medium, high, or custom. The higher the level, the more checks are enabled and the more alerts are generated. However, not all checks are equally relevant or indicative of real threats. Some checks may generate false positives or unnecessary alerts that can overwhelm the administrators and reduce the effectiveness of WIDS.

Therefore, one step that could be recommended to reduce the number of email notifications is to change the WIDS level to custom, and enable only the checks most likely to indicate real threats. This way, the administrators can fine-tune the WIDS settings to suit their network environment and security needs, and avoid getting flooded with irrelevant or redundant alerts. Option C is the correct answer.

Option A is incorrect because sending the email notifications directly to a specific folder and only checking the folder once a week is not a good practice for security management. This could lead to missing or ignoring important alerts that require immediate attention or action. Moreover, this does not solve the problem of getting too many emails in the first place.

Option B is incorrect because disabling email notifications for Rogue AP, but leaving the Infrastructure Attack Detected and Client Attack Detected notifications on, is not a sufficient solution. Rogue APs are unauthorized access points that can pose a serious security risk to the network, as they can be used to intercept or steal sensitive data, launch attacks, or compromise network performance. Therefore, disabling email notifications for Rogue APs could result in missing critical alerts that need to be addressed.

Option D is incorrect because disabling just the Rogue AP and Client Attack Detected alerts, as they overlap with the Infrastructure Attack Detected alert, is not a valid assumption. The Infrastructure Attack Detected alert covers a broad range of attacks that target the network infrastructure, such as deauthentication attacks, spoofing attacks, denial-of-service attacks, etc. The Rogue AP and Client Attack Detected alerts are more specific and focus on detecting and classifying rogue devices and clients that may be involved in such attacks. Therefore, disabling these alerts could result in losing valuable information about the source and nature of the attacks.

The RAPIDS Security Dashboard is a feature of Aruba Central that provides a comprehensive view of the network security status, including IDS/IPS events, rogue APs, and wireless intrusion detection. By viewing the RAPIDS Security Dashboard, you can see if the threat sources are rogue APs that are spoofing legitimate DNS servers or clients. This can give you valuable context about the incident and help you identify the root cause of the attack1
