    Hello community,

    We have 3400 controller with AP and PEF licenses. 

    Can we migrate AP and PEF licenses from 3400 controller to 7030 or 7010 or 7205 controller?

    Regards,

    As long as the hardware is registered on the ASP portal (https://asp.arubanetworks.com/)

    You can transfer licenses from existing hardware to new hardware by clicking on the Transfer License button.

    You'll need the serial number of the new controller.

    Far as i known the Aruba 3400 can come with a fixed/integrated licenses bundle out of the fabric, this licenses can not be migrated to another platform.

    If you manual add additional licenses that can migrate that one to another platform as long you have access to the Aruba ASP Portal account where this licenses are registered.

    In short, only licenses that are not fixed to the platform can migrated to another hardware.

    Hello everyone,

    Thank you very much for your answers.

    I logged in ASP. I added 3400 as device, but there is no "Add license" capability.

    I think - if we call Aruba support and send AP and PEF licenses which is diaplayed in 3400 license screen, Aruba support can add 3400 license to my ASP portal. Is my understanding correct?

    If we can only transport "After initial installation" licenses, that is false advertisement that 7010 7030 controllers can re-use 3400 licenses.

    Please advice.
