    Hello,

    Just click on the Generate button on right and then enter your HPE credentials.

    The Token has to be renewed at some interval (unknown)

    Hi

    If you get a message about expired credentials you have to change the password. I have been working with ClearPass more than 10 years, but I'm still confused about how the mapping is done from this token generation to the accounts in the background.

    Some customers are using the account in the ASP portal, https://asp.arubanetworks.com Login in to this web site and change the password
    Other cosutomers are using an account in the old My Networking Portal, https://mnp.arubanetworks.com, log in to this site and change the password.

    For some reason it looks like it's not the same account database.

    This has changed (I think in ClearPass 6.10). As Christian mentioned above, there is now an (API) token which is generated based on your Single Sign On with HPE, the same that you use to access the Aruba Support Portal. You no longer need to enter your account details in ClearPass, and the token should also not expire if you need to change your password, which was one of the main annoyances with the older system. I've noticed that occasionally the token expires especially in earlier versions of ClearPass 6.10 and clusters. If that happens you press the Generate Token button, it will do an SSO (or not if you are logged in already to ASP) and you are done.

    Note that you should have an active support contract in the ASP account that you use to generate the token, and the support contract has not expired.
