I am a Partner demonstrating new AOS10 capabilities with a small deployment. A large customer had a great question!
They use Aruba Central today with a separate cluster in each of many buildings (dozens of buildings). Each cluster may have all SSID's but have custom RF tuning per-build (as an example). This is the beauty of Group Level and VC/Cluster level config is that we can have one set of configs but then have one-off configurations per-cluster.
How is this accomplished with AOS10 which is cluster-less, no VC?
My answer was a separate group for each building. Then they asked how they would make an SSID change or add a new User-Role. Would they have to go to each group? Naturally the answer was, yes. Then I got blank stares and concerned how they would manage the environment moving forward... without the need for API's and functions outside of Central to accomplish the same group/vc configs as in AOS6/8.
Thoughts?
