  • New Central Configuration for Tunnelled WLANs

    This technote builds on the previous one, where I covered how to onboard and configure Mobility Gateways running HPE Aruba Networking Wireless Operating System 10 (AOS-10). In this technote, I’ll focus on the element profiles required to configure AOS-10 AP WLANs that operate in tunnel mode connecting to the mobility gateway… Read more

  • New Central Configuration for AOS10 Mobility Gateways

    In this technote, I’ll walk through how to onboard and configure Mobility Gateways running HPE Aruba Networking Wireless Operating System 10 (AOS-10) using the New Central cloud-native platform. I’ll cover pre-provisioning, firmware compliance, and the New Central configuration needed to automatically upgrade factory-default AOS8 gateways to AOS10 before pushing the required… Read more

  • Secure BYOD Access with ClearPass and Entra ID using SAML SSO

    In this technote, we’ll configure ClearPass Onboard to generate and issue user certificates for Microsoft Entra ID users. The solution uses single sign-on (SSO) to authenticate users and onboard new devices, making it ideal for Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) scenarios. With this approach, Entra ID users can securely onboard their… Read more

  • New Central Configuration for AOS10 Access Points – Guest Bridge Mode

    Previously, I discussed one of the main features of New Central, the Hierarchical Configuration Model, in an earlier technote. If you remember that model helps organise configurations in a much more structured way. In this technote, I’m going to build on what we covered before, but this time, we’ll focus specifically… Read more

  • New Central Configuration for AOS10 Access Points – dot1x Bridge Mode

    With the general availability of New Central, it is essential to understand one of its principal features: The Hierarchical Configuration Model. HPE Aruba Networking Central employs this model to streamline, full stack network management across distributed locations. Administrators are able to develop reusable profiles and policies, which minimise administrative burden, ensure… Read more
