  • 1.  Aruba Central Login, Multiple Users, Multiple Tenants, No MSP feature

    Posted Jan 13, 2022 09:31 AM
    Hello everyone!

    Is there a way to manage multiple tenants with mutiple admin users, without using the MSP-feature itself?
    So that every admin user can see all the customers within the "domain".

    BR,
    Philipp

    I don't believe so. I think the admin user account would need to be allowed / created on each customer they need access to. When the admin logs in to central, they can they choose the customer to manage, or switch between them once in.

    Actually unless something has changed the MSP feature is not really useful anyway for your use case or for many MSPs either.  The Aruba MSP mode is really a managed HARDWARE provider feature not a MSP feature because in MSP mode all devices and licensing are owned by the central MSP not the tenant.  They have no facilities to manage devices and licenses not directly owned by the MSP itself.  Everything must be licensed to you and you "lease" them to the tenants/clients.  So unless your clients/tenants are ok with that I think you are stuck with manually delegating admin access to each team member's accounts for each location you want to manage.

    Hi Jimmy, hi Dustin!

    Unfortunatly this also is my conclusion regarding a usable SAML-SSO login for multiple tenant Mgmt-Access.
    I looked into the SSO guide for ADFS and as far as I understood the individual CI-numbers have to be entered manually into the AD in order to grant access with SAML SSO. 
    Therefore everytime a new customer is created, the CI-number has to be added into the AD.
    So there is no usable solution for this problem at this point?

    All, please reach out to your local Aruba SE and get your requirements filed in Aruba Innovation Zone. The more of these requirements become visible, and the better described these are, the more chance there is that these will end up in Central.
