  • 1.  Aruba Central vs Mobility Master

    Posted Dec 21, 2021 01:52 PM

    Hi Guys,

    If I already proposed Mobility Master to managed 3 different sites, each sites with 2 controller(cluster). 
    Site 1 ) 100+ APs
    Site 2 ) 200 + APs
    Site 3) 400+ APs

    It is still good to have Aruba Central Clould/On-prem solely for the network monitoring purposes?
    Also take into consideration 

    Appreciate your comment.

    Thanks

    Hi Brandon,

    Do you want to use Aruba Central only for monitoring or also for manage your controllers and AP's ?

    Controllers can be managed by Aruba Central starting with AOS10, this is a controlled release at the moment and not free available. If you would go that way i would strongly recommend contact your local Aruba Partner to discuses the possibilities for your environment.

    If you want your controllers managed by Aruba Central in AOS10 the Mobility Conductor is no longer needed and replaced by Aruba Central.

    If you want Aruba Central (cloud or on-premise) only for monitoring purpose i think that Aruba Airwave (on-premise) is a still awesome and a cheaper option.

    so if you go down the AOS10, then you won't need mobility master/conductor anymore, that functionality will be part of Aruba Central

    HI Marcel,

    Thanks for the reply, as suggest by my local Aruba partner, I will proposed Airwave instead of Aruba Central, considering AOS10 it is still a controlled release.

    Thanks!
