The Microbranch (MB) solution can be seamlessly integrated with leading cloud security providers such as Zscaler through the Aruba Central “Cloud Connect” service. This integration facilitates the establishment of a secure connection between the Microbranch AP and one or multiple cloud-hosted enforcement control points. Specifically, in the case of Zscaler, this connection is established with Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) Public Service Edges.

In this condensed technote, we expand upon the previous 5-part microbranch series and focus on its integration with Zscaler SSE to facilitate policy-based redirection of user web traffic, thereby enhancing security and compliance measures. This integration ensures a comprehensive approach to network security and empowers organisations to efficiently manage and monitor web traffic while upholding stringent security policies and industry regulations.

The topology that we’ll be deploying is as shown below.
