2. Successful identification of different device types depends on the uniqueness of the
configured fingerprints. DHCP fingerprinting identifies clients based on the patterns
(fingerprints) in the DHCP discover and request messages sent by clients. If different operating
systems have the same fingerprints. it will be difficult to identity the device type.
3. When associating client identities with a role policy, ensure that the profile/device, under
which the role policy is being used, also has an associated client identity group (containing all
the client identities used by the role policy).
Example

rfs4000-229D58(config-client-identity-test)#?
rfs4000-229D58(config-client-identity-test)#?
