Wireless Access

i have some wireless Phones ( Cisco )  , i want to run over Aruba existing Wifi 

controller is Aruba 3200 . 

Is there a list of Wireless Phone sets  supported by Aruba ?  or all is supported ? 

is there license needed for VOIP on WIFI ? i can see from GUI under license Tab that " Voice Services Module" is disabled ?

 

#3200

Hi,

:smileyhappy:

You may read the info in the following line:

http://www.arubanetworks.com/support-services/interoperability/

 

*What AOS (version) installed on the 3200 controller?

*Do you have PEFNG installed on this 3200? (it's might be the reason for the  " Voice Services Module" is disabled)

 

u can see what licenses are installed on the controller via cli:

 

 

 

most (if not all) voip solution using wifi handset/software solution are supported by Aruba products.

Here is the list:

Have a lovely evening.

Thanks ,

Version 3.3 , Yes i have PEF liicense enabled , i cannot run VOIP if i have PEF ???

What about Alcatel IP Touch 4018 ...

i edited my post - read it again - and printout the licenses list on your controller. lets first check that u have everything that needed.

(K+ me if i helped u)

Attached

So what if i upgraded . i will need no LIC ?

Yes/No - you will need to buy a new licenses (PEFNG)

and regarding your question - those days there is no LIC-VOC module in the pricelist so the voip handling capabilities are already implanted. (NEW AOS needed + PEFNG) 

 

Thanks ,

why do i need to buy PEFNG , is this related to  VIOP over wireless , i Think it is a security LIC 

Hi,

If you would like to add muscles and abilities to your aruba controller and have the ability to spread and control different services over the wifi it better to have PEFNG installed.

It's not just a firewall it's handling all the control of different services\limitations we offer to our clients over the Wi-Fi

(bandwidth/protocol/application/qos/timing/security and much much more - u really become a magician :smileywink: )

 

PEFNG DATASHEET INFO

 

have a lovely evening.

Thx , so to summarize :

1- I don't need voice LIC to have VOIP over Wifi if i upgraded to version 5 , right ?

2- Currently i have PEF on ver 3.3 ,  but i don't have NGPEF .... Voice will work normailly , right ?

 

Your PEF lic will not work in a new aruba OS (post version 5.X)

 

1+2: Voip will always work on Wi-Fi. :smileytongue: even in a simple  home enviroment.

 

But if you would like to have better controlling option over the clients/application/qos ,it's better to upgrade your AOS

and of course it better to add to it PEF-NG in order to control the traffic over the air + the users better.

 

Me.

 

BTW:

:smileywink:

i'am going to sleep now ,it's 1:45am here.if you a further questions - fell free to ask here. (i will get back in the morning)

In addition read this

http://www.arubanetworks.com/wp-content/uploads/DG_Roaming.pdf

 

Go to chapter 7 if you using Cisco 792x Series Phones and read the recomended configuration for that ip phone series.

 

Cheers

I would recommend an upgrade from AOS 3.3.3.7

This code is no longer supported by Aruba Networks - please see EOS notice at;

http://www.arubanetworks.com/support-services/end-of-life-products#ArubaOSSoftware

 

Now on the good news front you have PEF license, in AOS 3.4 the VOC license was rolled into the PEF license.

Now after upgrading from 3.x to 5.x the PEF license is automatically updated to the PEFNG license so you have no need to buy any further licenses.

 

From 5.x release notes;

Licensing Change History

The following changes and/or consolidations were made to the ArubaOS licensing.

ArubaOS 5.0

MAP was merged into base ArubaOS

VPN was merged into base ArubaOS

RAP was merged into AP license

PEF (user basis) was converted to PEFNG (AP basis) with ArubaOS 5.0

ArubaOS 3.4.1

VOC was merged into PEF. This merge happened with ArubaOS 3.4.1

MP was merged into base ArubaOS

ArubaOS 3.4.0

ESI was merged into PEF

 

 

 

I would recommend an upgrade to the latest AOS 6.1

In our experience i will not go without PEFNG , we are using Ascom i62 with very good results, if your infraestructure it's n i will go with a n phone (better results) alcatel even oemize ascoms

 

 

Thanks All 

If you have version 3.3 u may need another license module: (why don't u upgrade to a new AOS and buy pefng license?)
