Aruba

Campus and branch managed from the cloud (Aruba Central): network access with the AI that finds the problems before the users do.

01 · What it is

HPE Aruba Networking, made clear.

Aruba is enterprise network access with cloud management: Wi-Fi 7 APs, CX switches and SD-WAN gateways governed by Aruba Central, with the AIOps analyzing the fleet and saying 'the problem is site 3's DHCP' before anyone calls. And ClearPass/Central NAC for the control of who gets in.

AI Insights
the automatic diagnosis: the cause suggested, not just the alarm

The campus, explained by its network

Radio surveys and design

The coverage designed, not hoped: Wi-Fi 7 pays if the radios are in the right place.

Zero-touch per site

The branch template: the new site powers on and configures itself.

Policies by identity

Employee, guest and sensor on different VLANs and rules: the port decides who you are.

AIOps in our NOC

Central's insights in the Yocto Vision flow: the network among the measured SLAs.

03 · In depth

Central, AI and the network that explains itself

Aruba Networking Central (now HPE Aruba Networking) governs CX switches, Wi-Fi 7 APs and gateways from one cloud: the AI Insights explains the problems (not 'AP down' but 'the DHCP responds slowly to these clients'), the Client Insights profiles the devices with ML (the basis for the policies), the dynamic segmentation applies roles from RADIUS/ClearPass to the switch port and the SSID, the UXI (sensors) measures the experience as the user lives it; the architecture is API-first.

  • AI Insights — the diagnosis in human language: the cause, not the symptom
  • Dynamic segmentation — the role follows the user on cable and Wi-Fi: one policy, two worlds
  • ClearPass — the in-house NAC: 802.1X, profiling and guest for governed access
  • Wi-Fi 7 — the 730/750 APs: the density and the 6GHz for today's offices
  • UXI sensor — the experience measured by 'fake users': the problem seen earlier
  • API-first — Central gets automated: the network in your IaC

The access network is a service: surveys, ClearPass and Central set up by us — the Wi-Fi nobody argues about.
05 · Use cases

Where it really pays off.

Campuses and offices

Modern access with light management.

Multi-site

Branches governed from the cloud, zero trips.

Building IoT

Sensors and cameras segmented by policy.

The network that explains itself saves diagnoses: Aruba Central + our NOC = answers, right away.
