Aruba Warranty and Support Summary
The Instant On Differentiator
built-in security gateway/firewall
When it comes to stopping people and bots from
accessing your network from the outside it’s critical
for small businesses. We’ve added advanced
features that do not require external gateways and
the complexity that comes with them. In case of
gateway failure, you can quickly and easily swap it
out with another AP with a single click.
App Visibility And Control
Get full visibility into the apps running on your
network along with the ability to block certain
applications from being used. You also get the
flexibility to turn off this feature from the mobile
app as well.
Easy Guest Access
Customize the experience with your logo, authentication, rules of use or keep it simple. Applying bandwidth rates, setting data usage per app and limiting duration of use is also a breeze. Or use an external portal or service like Facebook Wi-Fi. You can also have open guest networks for quick and easy access. With Instant On mobile app, you can apply bandwidth limits for your clients or your network for prioritizing certain primary networks.
Enterprise Grade Wi-Fi
Keep users happy as they move between spaces
or meetings with a seamless handoff between APs.
All you need is to use is secure WPA2 or WPA3
authentication on your secure networks and we do
the rest. You can also control the network width,
channels and channel width to suit your specific
environment in a single click. Instant On supports
OWE for secure, open Wi-Fi network access at
cafes, retail stores and restaurants. With the new Cloudflare integration, you get private and fast web
browsing. The 802.11k standard improves roaming
performance helping clients connect to nearby APs
quickly.
Multi-Site Management
The cloud-hosted web interface and mobile
app make it easy to manage multiple sites:
multiple networks, distributed deployments
and multi-tenancy deployments. Each site is
logically separated and has its own configuration,
statistics, guest portal, and admin read/write and
read-only privileges. Instant On allows you to create
three admin accounts per site, offering an option
to lock accounts to prevent them from accidental
deletion.
Site Inventory And Topology View
The site inventory view lists all the Instant On
switches and access points on a single interface,
and the topology view provides an intuitive
structure of all Instant On devices deployed in a
network — allowing you to quickly identify nonfunctioning devices and troubleshoot accordingly.
Network issues can be easily diagnosed with
connectivity tests like Ping and Traceroute.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
As the number of security breaches continue to rise, 2FA has become an essential tool to mitigate risk against compromised login credentials. TwoFactor Authentication (2FA), provides an additional layer of authentication, prevents attackers from remotely accessing our network, and secures sensitive customer information.
PPPoE And Static IP
Every customer has different environment. They
might want to authenticate with the ISP’s PPPoE
server and provide static IP to the APs.
Smart Mesh
Each of the Aruba Instant On APs support
extending coverage to those hard to reach
spaces where Ethernet cabling may not exist. The
Aruba Instant On mobile app makes it easy to have
a Mesh network up in minutes — indoor or out.
5-Star Voice And Video Quality
Wi-Fi Alliance Certified Instant On APs automatically
detect and prioritize applications such as Skype,
FaceTime and WeChat that use SIP, SCCP and other
popular protocols. Now it’s even easier to use
softphones and the mobile apps that keep your
users connected.
It’s as easy as 1-2-3. Really.
First things first: Prepare your workspace. Then, power up your access point or switch.
As it powers up, download the mobile app. Create an account and configure your network when ready.
Once you’re powered up and configured, you can connect. That’s it. Monitor and manage the rest from your phone.
