WLAN Controllers/Switches

HPE Aruba Networking Mobility Controller Virtual Appliances offer the functionality of a hardware controller in a cost-effective virtualized environment. They leverage your existing virtualization infrastructure and offer the same functionality as the physical mobility controllers to deliver network services that maximize Wi-Fi performance. 

The HPE Aruba Networking Mobility Controller Virtual Appliance is deployed as a virtual machine (VM), residing with other VMs sharing the same existing virtualization infrastructure for operational saving. Running on HPE Aruba Networking Wireless Operating System (AOS-8), these virtual appliances can be managed by HPE Aruba Networking Mobility Conductor for higher scale and deployed using Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP).

Extended maintenance windows, network upgrades and unplanned outages can mean hundreds or even thousands of hours of lost productivity yearly. More than ever, network infrastructure is mission-critical, and to meet these demands, the HPE Aruba Networking Hardware Mobility Conductor Series simplifies the deployment and management of up to 1,000 HPE Aruba Networking Mobility Controllers to scale large campus deployments.

The Hardware Mobility Conductor Series enables high scale and reliability, managing up to 100,000 clients, 10,000 access points, and 1,000 controllers/gateways. It also provides simplified deployment with dynamic license management and configuration hierarchy. 

The HPE Aruba Networking Hardware Mobility Conductor Series can be deployed as either a virtual or hardware appliance with choice of virtual or x86 hardware appliances.

HPE Aruba Networking 7200 Series Mobility Controllers enhance WLAN performance by centralizing all control functionality for individual access points (APs) to improve AP utilization, security, and client roaming. Designed to support the needs of large campuses and high-density environments, this series delivers seamless L2/L3 roaming for tens of thousands of users or client devices. With up to 80 virtual CPUs and 100 Gbps of maximum throughput, the 7200 series is ideal for the most demanding enterprise requirements and can act as a controller or gateway to deliver WAN intelligence, policy-based routing, and enhanced security. 

The 7200 series provides connectivity for up to 32,728 concurrent users or client devices, 2,048 access points, and two million active firewall sessions. It can be deployed using Zero Touch provisioning to simplify deployment.
