Licensing

All switches, gateways, and APs that participate in the campus fabric require Aruba Central Advanced subscriptions to use NetConductor features. Advanced licenses are sold for CX switches but are not required when a Central Advanced subscription is assigned to the switch. Unique switch and gateway subscriptions are available to cover models with different capabilities and capacities. For example, a subscription for a CX6200 switch is not interchangeable with one for a CX8360, and, likewise, 9004 and 9240 gateways use different subscriptions. Subscriptions can be purchased in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 year increments.

SKUs and pricing for these subscriptions can be found using HPE QuickSpecs, the Iris configurator tool for partners and internal HPE users only, or in this ordering guide: https://www.arubanetworks.com/assets/og/OG_Aruba-Central-SaaS-Subscription.pdf

Note that the SKUs with a suffix of AAS are flexible and allow delayed activation (up to 90 days), license co-termination, mid-cycle tier upgrade, and seamless license renewals. AAE suffix subscriptions are activated immediately.
