Full bioThe Aruba NetworkseSupportteam is proud to announce a web-based tool,Aruba Solution Exchange(ASE). With this tool, you will be able to quickly generate configuration for a variety of use cases. The tool offers a set of "solutions" and each "solution" targets a common configuration use case. A "solution" contains a collection of information gathered from existing content includingVRDs, tech notes, application notes, user guides, and KB articles. The information is packaged together into a wizard type of interface which brings the content alive. You are asked a minimum amount of information about your network and the wizard will use that information to generate a configuration specific to your environment.
As an example, theWirelessSSIDsolution can generate configuration for a new encryptedSSIDon Aruba Controllers. Only 7 questions are necessary to generate the configuration. More complex solutions includeAruba Controller Captive PortalandPoint to Point Mesh.
