Work environments are transforming to digital workplaces, with billions of mobile workers using their mobile devices for business critical services. Mobility, IoT and business critical applications are enabling these workers to be more productive and efficient, but at the same time driving up the demands on the network. To enable an always-on network with the desired performance and user experience, enterprises must deliver an intelligent WLAN with advanced technologies to be more predictive, enable always-on connectivity, and improve network efficiency. The Aruba Mobility Master Controller is the next generation of master controller that can be either deployed as a virtual machine (VM) or installed on an x86-based hardware appliance. The Mobility Master provides better user experience, flexible deployment, simplified operations and enhanced performance. Features The Aruba Mobility Master Controller consolidates all-master, single master multiple local, and multiple master-local deployments into a single deployment model. The Mobility Master and managed devices are set up from a centralized dashboard simplifying and streamlining the configuration process. ArubaOS 8 uses a centralized, multi-tier architecture that provides a clear separation between management, control, and forwarding functions. The Aruba Mobility Master Controller with ArubaOS 8 extends the capabilities of the Aruba WLAN to be more intelligent. AirMatch intelligently automates Wi-Fi tuning, while the NorthBound APIs provide unparalleled visibility to the network. The Aruba Mobility Master Controller uses controller clustering that enables seamless experience across giant campuses, in the event of a failure or significant crowd density. Even distribution of users across controllers ensures large amount of available throughput for each user enabling automatic user loading.
