AIOps for Wired, Wireless, and SD-WAN Infrastructure
AI Insight provides actionable intelligence on overall network health to simplify troubleshooting and improve performance.
Using a common data lake hosted in the cloud, peer comparisons help crowdsource commonly encountered issues.
AI Search offers advanced issue-detection capabilities, simplifying day‑0 to day‑2 operations with context-based troubleshooting and guided remediation steps to quickly resolve problems.
AI Assist brings support services forward by using machine learning to perform search queries, automatically collect diagnostics, and proactively open a TAC service request when needed.
Additional Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) analytics enable businesses to perform contact tracing and location tracing to support COVID‑19 responses.
Enterprise Scale and Resiliency
HPE Aruba Networking Central delivers greater scale and resiliency for enterprise campus, branch, and remote networks, supporting tens of thousands of devices in a single instance.
Advanced AOS capabilities such as AirMatch, Live Upgrades, and clustering provide improved performance and reliability.
SD‑WAN with new cloud‑connect functionality enhances WAN performance, simplifies branch configurations, and enables seamless connectivity to AWS and Azure gateways.
HPE Aruba Networking threat defense supports IPS/IDS, while integrations with Zscaler and Palo Alto provide advanced web‑security capabilities.
Using HPE Aruba Networking’s micro branch, RAP, and SD‑WAN light features, work‑from‑home, teleworker, and remote call center deployments are also supported.
Simplified Deployment and Lifecycle Management
HPE Aruba Networking Central provides Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) through a unified configuration and deployment framework.
Manage HPE Aruba Networking CX switches alongside HPE Aruba Networking Switch Operating System (AOS‑S) switches, and convert existing Mobility Controllers and campus APs to protect prior investments.
A mobile installer app can provision an access point, switch, or gateway—ideal for systems integrators or third‑party contractors.
REST APIs are available through the API Gateway and include protected OAuth access and rate‑limiting capabilities.
View, analyze, and enforce traffic policies based on individual applications, application categories, web categories, and web reputation.
Built-in security
Client Insights: Delivers continuous, AI‑powered device discovery and profiling with up to 99% accuracy, providing real‑time visibility into every endpoint—managed, unmanaged, or IoT. This reduces blind spots and ensures only trusted devices access the network.
Central NAC: Enforces dynamic, policy‑based access control based on user roles, device types, and risk posture. It automatically applies least‑privilege access, minimizing lateral movement and exposure to threats.
Policy Manager: Centralizes policy orchestration across wired, wireless, and WAN environments. It simplifies compliance, eliminates duplication, and ensures consistent enforcement from a single interface.
