There are two ways of how Central handlmanagement to distinguish:
- UI Groups
- Template Groups
UI groups are currently limited to basic switch functionalities such as VLAN, Port configurations, etc. In this case, you can't configure any advanced settings such as STP, Routing, etc. This is continuously being enhanced to support more switch functionalities through the UI as well.
For the purpose of advanced configs you can leverage template groups. As the name implies, you configure your switches based on a template, which is based on the running configuration of an actual devices. This allows you to configure all advanced settings that the switches can handle.
The Central User Manual does have chapters on the subject of switch management: http://help.central.arubanetworks.com/2.4.4/documentation/online_help/content/public_cloud/applications/wired_management/switch_management.htm
Best is to access the manual always through the Central UI directly (lower left hand corner). This way you get to the most recent version of the documents.
