HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Policy Manager

NOTE: As part of a TLS 1.3 enhancement in AOS-CX 10.16, OpenSSL in CX switches has been upgraded to OpenSSL 3.x. OpenSSL 3.x is only compatible with Clearpass Policy Manager 6.11.0 or later. When using AOS-CX switches running 10.16 with Clearpass Policy Manager version 6.10.x or lower, TLS applications will fail since the OpenSSL version utilized in these lower versions of Clearpass Policy Manager is incompatible with OpenSSL 3.x as per the FIPS standards.
