    In this technote ClearPass using Gmail as Messaging Server, I'll walk through using Gmail as a messaging server in ClearPass, particularly useful in lab environments where you're testing solutions that require email integration.

    Here are some solutions that require email integrations.
    •    Trigger email delivery of credentials after MPSK registration.
    •    Guest access with sponsor approval
    •    Schedule automated delivery of Insight reports via email
    •    Authentication failure notification via email
    •    Use post-authentication enforcement profiles to trigger email notifications based on defined policy conditions.
    •    Email notifications for client quarantine events. 
    •    Send email notifications when ClearPass detects a security event through its integration with an EDR/XDR platform (e.g., CrowdStrike).


    In the next technote I will cover the enforcement profiles that can send email notifications.

    Hope you'll find it useful and as always please send through your feedback for improvement.
