    Hi,
    Our customer has bought a controller and CAPs from Alcatel OEM some time ago. Now they want to add a few small branches with Instants from Aruba. Controller replacement is not an option.

    We know that this approach will not be covered by official support, but since there are no additional licenses needed on a controller (excluding PEFV), my question is:
    1. Is it possible to have IAP-VPN solution (IPsec) in this case with Centralized L2 or Distributed L3?
    2. Is it possible to use Aruba/AutoGRE feature between Aruba Instants and Alcatel controller (in case no IPsec is needed)?
    3. Is manual GRE supported in this case with Centralized L2 or Distributed L3?
