Aruba Products Flashcards
SP Unity EdgeConnect
physical or virtual appliances.
- Always-consistent, always-available application performance
- Highest quality of voice and video, across any combination of transport services
SP Unity Orchestrator
enables IT to rapidly and centrally define:
- Application Quality of Service and security policies to 1000s of sites
- Simplified service chaining to third-party network and security services
SP Unity Boost
optional WAN optimization performance pack:
- Improves the performance of latency-sensitive applications
- Reduces transmission of repetitive data
SP Virtual WAN Overlays
pplication-specific virtual WAN overlay model. Multiple overlays may be defined to abstract the underlying physical transport services from the virtual overlays, each supporting different QoS, transport, and failover characteristics.
SP Tunnel Bonding
Configured from two or more physical WAN transport services, bonded tunnels form a single logical overlay connection, aggregating the performance of all underlying links.
SP Dynamic Path Control (DPC)
Real-time traf- fic steering is applied over any broadband or MPLS link, or any combination of links based on company-defined policies based upon business intent. In the event of an outage or brownout, EdgeConnect automatically continues to carry traffic on the remaining links or switches over to a secondary connection.
SP WAN Hardening
EachWANoverlayissecured edge-to-edge via 256-bit AES encrypted tunnels. No unauthorized outside traffic can enter the branch. With the option to deploy EdgeConnect directly onto the internet, WAN hardening secures branch offices without the appliance sprawl and operating costs of deploying and managing dedicated firewalls.
SP Zone-based Firewall
Centrally visualize, define and orchestrate granular security policies and create secure end-to-end zones across any combination of users, application groups and virtual overlays, pushing configuration updates to sites in accordance with business intent. Using simple templates to create unique zones that enforce granular perimeter security policies across LAN-WAN-LAN and LAN-WAN-Data Center use cases.
SP Path Conditioning
This feature provides private-line-like performance over the public internet. Includes techniques to overcome the adverse effects of dropped and out-of-order packets that are common with broadband internet and MPLS connections to improve application performance.
SP First-packet iQ™ Application Classification
identifies applications on the first packet to deliver trusted SaaS and web traffic directly to the Internet while directing unknown or suspicious traffic to the data center firewall or IDS/ IPS. Identifying applications on the first packet is especially important when branches are deployed behind Network Address Translation (NAT); the correct path must be selected based on the first packet to avoid session interruption.
SP Local Internet Breakout
Granular, intelligent traffic steering enabled by First-packet iQ eliminates the inefficiency of backhauling all HTTP/ HTTPS traffic to the data center. The solution eliminates the potential for wasted bandwidth and performance bottlenecks for trusted SaaS and web traffic. Trusted traffic is sent directly across the Internet while unknown or suspicious traffic may be sent automatically to more robust security services in accordance with corporate security policies.
SP Cloud Intelligence
Real-time updates on the best performing path to reach hundreds of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, ensuring users connect to those applications in the fastest, most intelligent way available. Additionally, automated daily updates of the application IP address database to EdgeConnect appliances keep pace with SaaS and web address changes.
ATMosphere Digital
Aruba User Conference, 30K attendees
Aruba Airheads
Community of over (130K?) engineers
Aruba Central
Unified Pane of Glass for Aruba ESP management. enables you to manage WLAN, switching, SD-WAN, and VPN services using cloud, on-premises or as-a-Service options.
Clearpass Device Insight
Finds device-specific info: MAC address, manufacturer, behavioral attributes. For unknown devices, usesC ML to create new classifications.
ClearPass Policy Manager
Network Access Control, Policy Engine, MAC-level authorization, TACACS+ profiling
ClearPass Security Exchange
Share credentialing across Perimeter Defense, MDM/EMM, SIEM, Automation, MFA, and Infrastructure. Noted are Palo Alto, Juniper, Check Point, Fortinet, MDM/EMM players, Arcsight, Splunk, Servicenow, others
ClearPass Onboard
BYOD Self-service workflow system, pushing users to secured SSID to register, get certificate, mesh to MDM/EMM workflows
ClearPass OnGuard
Endpoint posture and healthcheck assessment. Can check if a policy is violated, like Skype being loaded, which could be a violation. Another example: User not having firewall. Can alert, or even turn on firewall.
PEF
Policy Enforcement Firewall
Aruba Contact Tracing
Aruba’s network-based approach uses both proximity and location telemetry. Aruba APs enable a location-aware office and provide contact and location-based telemetry and indoor wayfinding using Wi-Fi, BLE, and data analytics. Central now has proximity tracing so you can run a simple query based on a username or MAC address to see who has come into contact with others. Meridian works with Aruba 300/500 series APs and Aruba Tags to provide heat mapping and location analytics within a physical building or campus.
Aruba Beacons
Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) technology to power indoor location and wayfinding, and proximity-aware push notifications at enterprises, stadiums, hospitals and other public venues
Meridan AppMaker
App Development tool for geolocation, indoor location and way finding, asset tracking, push notifications, point of interest, local service discovery, meeting room finder, evacuation management
