HPE Aruba 7030 Network Controller

The 7030 cloud services controller supports 64 APs. The cloud services controller also unifies policy management for wired and wireless, making it simple and cost-effective to create an all-wireless workplace at branch offices.

Capable of handling up to 4,000 users, the 7000 series performs stateful firewall policy enforcement at up to 8 Gbps. Secure IP tunnels protect branch traffic across the public and private transport network to the cloud and headquarters. Local bridging can be performed, depending on end-user applications or IT traffic forwarding requirements.

The 7000 series also supports Aruba’s Next-Generation Mobility Firewall with AppRF technology, which continuously evaluates app usage and performance and makes configuration changes in real-time to ensure optimal bandwidth, priority and network paths in branch offices.

A real-time dashboard makes it easy to identify and correct quality-of-service tags, load-balance specific apps across APs, adjust RF management and roaming parameters for latency-sensitive apps, and apply bandwidth contracts per app or for a group of apps.

The 7000 series supports other enterprise-critical capabilities like authentication, encryption, VPN connections, IPv4 and IPv6 services, the Policy Enforcement Firewall, Adaptive Radio Management and ClientMatch technologies, and RFProtect spectrum analysis and wireless intrusion protection.
