ClearPass Guest Skin Development
Your guest and operator portals should match your brand.
What Are ClearPass Guest Skins?
HPE Aruba ClearPass guest and operator portals control how users see and interact with your network access experience - captive portals, registration flows, and credential delivery. ClearPass Guest Skins let you give those portals a professional look and feel that matches your website, optimized for smartphones, tablets, and laptops.
HPE Aruba Networking offers a Skin Service that takes either a public website URL or a fully packaged, responsive template (HTML, CSS, and high-resolution images) and converts it into a ClearPass skin plugin. They deliver a responsive experience and a custom-branded email receipt. What they do not provide is the custom design and build of that template - the HTML/CSS, layout, and branding work that makes the portal truly yours.
That is where we come in. We focus on the development work Aruba does not offer: creating custom HTML/CSS templates, applying your company branding, and designing layouts that are ready to be handed off for conversion into a ClearPass skin or used in your own deployment.
Why Custom Templates and Branding?
Aruba's skin service is built around an existing website URL or a pre-built template. If you do not have a suitable reference site or need a purpose-built layout, custom design and coding are required and Aruba directs those needs to third-party partners for custom quotes. The benefits of investing in custom development include:
- Consistent Branding: Logos, colors, typography, and imagery aligned with your brand guidelines across every device and screen size
- Purpose-Built Layouts: Structures designed for guest registration, terms acceptance, and credential delivery rather than adapted from a generic marketing site
- Responsive, Accessible Markup: Semantic HTML and CSS that work on phones, tablets, and desktops and meet accessibility expectations
- Skin-Ready Deliverables: Packaged templates (HTML, CSS, high-resolution assets) in the form Aruba or your integration partner expects for skin conversion
- Future-Proof Foundation: Clean, maintainable code so you can update copy, imagery, or styling without re-engineering the entire portal
Development Services
Santomieri Systems provides the custom design and development layer that complements Aruba's ClearPass Guest Skin Service. We do not configure ClearPass policies or convert templates into skin plugins—we build the templates and branding so you have something to hand off to Aruba or your integration partner.
Brand-Aligned HTML/CSS Templates: We create responsive guest and operator portal templates from your brand guidelines: colors, fonts, logo usage, and layout preferences. The output is clean HTML and CSS (and high-resolution images as needed) packaged for skin conversion.
Template Handoff and Documentation: We deliver organized assets and brief documentation so your team or Aruba can convert the template into a skin with minimal back-and-forth. We can also advise on asset specs (e.g., image resolution, CSS conventions) that align with ClearPass skin requirements.
Iteration and Updates: Need copy changes, new imagery, or layout tweaks after the initial build? We can maintain and update the template so it stays aligned with your brand and any changes in ClearPass or your processes.
