As part of setting up an HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Onboard solution for wireless clients,...

Access to the Onboard portal is controlled by a dedicated Pre-Auth service in ClearPass Policy Manager:

The “ClearPass Onboard Service Pre-Auth” service defines which authentication sources (e.g., AD domain, local DB, guest) are used when users log into the Onboard web portal.

To restrict access to domain users only, you edit this Pre-Auth service to use only the Active Directory auth source (and appropriate authorization checks, such as group membership).

Exam and configuration references for ClearPass Onboard clearly identify the Onboard Pre-Auth service as the place where you control who can log into the Onboard portal.

Network Settings and Provisioning profiles in Onboard govern SSID, profiles, and device configuration, not portal user authentication.

The 802.1X services for wireless control network access after onboarding, not login to the onboarding portal itself.

Therefore, to limit the portal to domain users, you should edit the ClearPass Onboard Service Pre-Auth service on CPPM → Option B.
