Security

I am looking to automate a password change on a user stored internally on a mobility controller, and have the new password mailed out.

This user would just be used for captive portal authentication.

I would prefer not to use RADIUS as it will only be for one user. I have Airwave as well if that is needed to send the config change to the mobility controller.

Is this possible?

Some ideas:  https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Acommunity.arubanetworks.com+automate+password+change&rlz=1CAKSTH_enUS854&oq=site%3Acommunity.arubanetworks.com+automate+password+change&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i58.13516j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

The ArubaOS 8 API is very powerful, although I haven't used it for managing the internal user database. Combined with Python you'll probably be able to achieve what your trying using the /object/userdb_add POST call.
