Aruba AirWave DL360 Pro
Centralized visibility and management for multivendor access networks

Features:

Real-Time Monitoring and Visibility

• Automatically track every user and device - wireless and remote - on the network.
• Gain visibility into clients associated to network including location, SNR, connection speed and more.
• Measure response times and failures rates for client association with Wi-Fi radio, authentication with a RADIUS server, gathering IP address through DHCP, and resolving names for DNS services.
• Monitor wired infrastructure that connects wireless controllers and APs.
• View radio and RADIUS errors, including noise floor and channel utilization information, frequent causes of connectivity problems.
• Drill down rapidly from network-wide to device-level monitoring views.
• Track RF performance, capacity and application-level statistics, web traffic as well as network deviations over a 40-week period.

Device Discover

• Automatically discovers wireless LAN (WLAN) infrastructure devices.
• Operate in any network environment, including large distributed networks with multiple locations.

Troubleshooting and Diagnostics

• View client device data from ArubaOS, Aruba Instant and Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager including device type, operating system, operating system details, manufacturer and model.
• Search for clients by user name or MAC address for a diagnostic view of device and network statistics along with indicators to evaluate overall health and performance.
• Overlay client health on a floor plan to diagnose issues specific to the client or to an area on a floor plan.
• Easily diagnose RF issues in the network for advanced RF troubleshooting.

Root Cause Analysis and Event Correlation

• Map upstream relationships between APs, controllers and switches to identify the root cause of downtime and performance problems.
• Correlate performance and downtime issues to send only a single alert in the event of an upstream device failure.

Configuration Management

• Automatically configure APs, controllers, Aruba Instant, and Aruba Switches.
• Define configuration policies through a web user interface or by importing known-good configuration from an existing device.
• Configure Aruba Instant APs to provision a large number of branch locations with ease. Manage configurations across multiple locations with tools like adding notes, and overrides, as well as multi-edit and contextsensitivity support.
• Eliminate time-consuming and error-prone manual updates with efficient remote software distribution.
• Support advanced firmware image upgrades with features such as enforcing certified versions by group, splitting-up image downloads and reboot processes, as well as support for scheduling of firmware upgrades or change configurations to occur during off hours.
• Archive device configurations for auditing and version control. Additionally, archive device configurations and flash backups to restore previous stat and configuration of Aruba controllers.
• Maintain detailed audit logs of changes made by all AirWave operators.

Better Network Planning and Provisioning

• VisualRF and the offline VisualRF Plan tool allow quick planning of RF and wired coverage for new sites.

Managing Latest Technologies, Architectures and Products

• A single management interface for multiple generations of devices.
• Support autonomous, controller-managed and mesh APs, including outdoor Aruba AirMesh.
• Monitor wired edge devices using standard MIB data.
• Generate reports on wired port utilization for capacity planning.
• Support latest ArubaOS and ArubaOS-Switch management capabilities.

Easy-To-Use Web Interface

• Role-based access, viewing rights and administrative privileges tailored to job responsibilities.
• Custom graphs of key information allow for pan and zoom for visibility into specific periods of time.
• Identify and search for users by user name.
• Client overview summarizes the types of clients attached to the network and provides visibility into watched or VIP clients.
• Multiple dashboard views provide visibility into every aspect of RF, clients, apps and network services.
