    Hello, 

    I have a question about IFMAP and DHCP helper. I know both can be used to share device specific information, IFMAP at least through   User-Agent strings sent by browsers in the HTTP protocol to refine classification results. What is not really clear is if IFMAP also collects the DHCP fingerprint.

    In other words can IFMAP alone collect DHCP fingerprints as well as User-Agent strings and does this mean you don't need IP helpers pointing to ClearPass?

    Thanks
