ArubaOS Software

Providing unified services to power mobility, ArubaOS is a comprehensive suite of system software for Aruba mobility controllers and access points.

ArubaOS uniquely integrates services of security, mobility, application-awareness, management and RF-tuning together to deliver the most secure and reliable anywhere, anytime access to enable effective enterprise mobility.

Standard with every Aruba mobility controller, ArubaOS provides unprecedented control over the entire mobile environment with centralized wireless LAN switching and mobility management.

ArubaOS Software Modules

To extend the base capabilities of ArubaOS, a number of licensed software modules unlock additional functionality, including:

Secure enterprise mesh

Allows outdoor and indoor enterprise environments to be networked without any wires — and with the security and reliability of wired LAN.

Voice services

Delivers standards-based voice over Wi-Fi plus voice control and management innovations enabled by Aruba's application-aware architecture. VSM supports large-scale voice deployments and provides a foundation for fixed mobile convergence (FMC).

Policy enforcement firewall

Enforces user-based network access and application priority policies. Policies can be centrally defined and enforced on a per-user basis based on user role and authorization levels. These policies follow users as they move throughout the enterprise network.

Wireless intrusion protection

Identifies and protects against malicious attacks on wireless networks, as well as vulnerabilities caused by unauthorized access points and client devices.

Remote access point

Extends the enterprise network to any remote location by enabling seamless wireless data and voice wherever a user finds an Internet-connected Ethernet port or cellular connection. Ideally suited for small remote offices, home offices, telecommuters, mobile executives, and for business continuity applications.

VPN server

Extends the mobile enterprise network to large branch offices and individual users over the public Internet, eliminating the need for separate external VPN equipment.

External services interface

Delivers a set of control and management interfaces to seamlessly integrate third-party network devices, incremental software modules and services into Aruba's architecture.

xSec

Provides wired and wireless Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 validated encryption technology designed for high-security government networks.
