    If I understand you correct, you would first install the the 2 MM-VAs at a central site with a VRRP between them to manage the configuration and licensing of all of your 7010s.  Later when you configure the 7010s, they should be MDs (controllers that serve access points and clients) and point them to the VRRP ip address between the 2 MM-VAs.  You would add the licenses to the MM-VAs.

     

    Have you seen the ArubaOS 8 fundamentals guide here?  https://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Controller-Based-WLANs/ArubaOS-8-Fundamentals-Guide/ta-p/428914

     

    Also please look at the ArubaOS 8.2 videos below.

    Are you able to see the controller?
    Did you apply the licenses ?
    Can you ping the controller from the AP network ?
    Do you see any alerts (error messages) at the top ?



    Thank you
