When operating in Aruba Instant mode, the cloud-based Aruba
Activate™ service dramatically reduces RAP-100 series
deployment time by performing zero-touch provisioning, firmware
upgrades and inventory management. With Aruba Activate,
RAP-100s are factory-shipped to remote deployment sites and
obtain their configurations automatically when powered up.

Security:
-
With an
RAPs delivers integrated web filtering, malware and botnet
protection to every device connected to the WLAN
-
Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure storage
of credentials and keys
-
SecureJack-capable for secure tunneling of wired
Ethernet traffic
-
VPN configuration functionality enables the Instant AP to
create a single VPN tunnel to an Aruba Mobility Controller
in the data center. The Mobility Controller acts solely as a
VPN end-point and does not supply the Instant AP with any
configuration.

To eliminate client stickiness, the RAP-100 series includes
integrated ClientMatch™ technology, which continuously gathers
session performance metrics and uses this data to every device to
the best AP and radio on the WLAN, even while users roam and
RF conditions change.

The RAP-100 series also offers a wide range of enterprise-class
features, including role-based network access, policy-based
forwarding, and Adaptive Radio Management™ (ARM), which
optimizes Wi-Fi client performance and ensures that Aruba APs
stay clear of interference.

At locations that require greater coverage, the RAP-100 can join
an Aruba Instant WLAN cluster. Simply install additional RAP-100s
or any Aruba Instant AP and the entire cluster is managed as one.
If one Aruba Instant AP fails, another AP automatically takes over
with no disruption.
