Aruba 7000 Series Mobility Controllers enhance WLAN performance by centralizing all control functionality for individual Aruba access points (APs) to improve AP utilization, security, and client roaming. Ideally suited for midsize campuses and branches, the 7000 Series can be deployed using Zero Touch Provisioning to simplify deployment.
The 7000 Series serves a key role in Dynamic Segmentation, providing Aruba’s Policy Enforcement Firewall (PEF) to enforce policies based on user role, device type, application, and network location – and simplifying and securing wired and wireless network access. Traffic is encapsulated in GRE tunnels for complete encryption all the way from an AP or switch. This feature can be enabled with the ArubaOS PEF license and eliminates the need to manually configure SSIDs, VLANs or ACLs for each new client on the network.
