    Hi All,

    I have 2 brand new aruba 9012 BGW, i want to know can i run this with MPLS line and internet terminating on each gateway and then configure them on HA.
    I have been told to do the initial configuration for now,but can anyone clarify if this setup is possible or not? Aruba central is yet to be setup.

    note that the branch gateways (BGW) will not get involve in the MPLS operation, you can connect the MPLS link to the BGW and it will be treated like another uplink with valid IP address and route. then it is upto the upstream MPLS router.

    Please refer to this deployment guide

    I'm using aruba at work using IAP's with a central subscription. Being the techy person I am I also wanted to swap out my home wifi for Aruba. Helps me to learn and get more antiquated to the solution.

    I noticed the IAP's are a lot more costly than the controller based AP's in the used market. I don't have any experience with aruba controllers. Is it cost effective to get one so I can run some of the controller based models? Is there a subscription etc? I need 4 AP's

    The Instant APs and the controller based AP are exactly the same price. there are the same hardware but they run different firmware.
    please contact your local Aruba representative to discuss it further.
