The Aruba 2400 Controller is a fully-featured wireless LAN controller that aggregates up to 48 controlled access points (APs) and delivers centralized control and security for wireless deployments. The Aruba 2400 delivers solid performance and military-grade encryption through dedicated control, network, and encryption processors.

Intended for regional headquarters or dense office wireless deployments, the Aruba 2400 can be easily installed without any disruption to the existing wired network. The Aruba 2400 acts as the head-end portion of Aruba's "virtual edge" architecture, in which Aruba wired and wireless access points installed at the network edge move user traffic to the controller through secure tunnels over any available IP transport network. Running the ArubaOS operating system, the Aruba 2400 comes standard with advanced authentication, encryption, wireless radio management, and L2/L3 networking features. Optional ArubaOS software modules unlock additional functionality including policy enforcement firewall, VPN server, remote access gateway, secure enterprise wireless mesh, and wireless intrusion prevention.

Controller clustering and centralized management allow even the largest enterprise, with hundreds of controllers, to be managed and maintained with minimal staff overhead. A designated "master" controller may be used to manage multiple "local" controllers, or for larger networks the AirWave Management Platform provides the highest visibility and control for the entire IT staff.
