Choose Your Operating Mode
  • The AP-370EX Series supports Aruba’s unique dual operating system capability called Unified mode. The APs can be deployed with a controller or run in Instant mode and readily switched to accommodate changing network needs.
    • Controller mode: When managed by Aruba Mobility Controllers, Aruba 370EX Series offers centralized configuration, data encryption, policy enforcement and network services, as well as distributed and centralized traffic forwarding, or
    • Controllerless (Instant) mode: In Aruba Instant mode, a single AP automatically distributes the network configuration to other Instant APs in the WLAN. Simply power-up one Instant AP, configure it over the air, and plug in the other APs – Instant Network.
  • Other functional modes include:
    • Remote AP (RAP) mode for branch deployments
    • Air monitor (AM) for wireless IDS, rogue detection and containment
    • Spectrum analyzer, dedicated or hybrid, for identifying sources of RF interference
    • Secure enterprise mesh
    • Hybrid AP serves Wi-Fi clients and provides wireless intrusion protection and spectrum analysis.
  • For large installations across multiple sites, the Aruba Activate service significantly reduces deployment time by automating device provisioning, firmware upgrades, and inventory management. With Aruba Activate, Unified APs are factory-shipped to any site and configure themselves when powered up.
