Product Overview
HPE Aruba Networking 9100 Series Hybrid Gateways, Securely and seamlessly deliver enterprise services to the edge with the cloud-optimized 9100 Series Hybrid Gateway. Ideal for campus and remote branch networks, the 9100 Series Hybrid Gateway delivers scalable, high-performance Wi-Fi with enhanced security.
Boost performance and scalability
The 9100 Series Hybrid Gateways are modern edge appliances that support up to 4K APs and 10K clients. With compact 1U form factor and high-speed 10 GbE connectivity, this modern AOS-10 gateway brings fast, resilient Wi-Fi connectivity supporting live upgrades, clustering, and redundancy so users and IoT devices have 24×7 access to enterprise services.
Increase edge security
Deliver consistent policy enforcement via Dynamic Segmentation. Granular rules can be defined for any user, application, or device—including IoT—across wired and wireless networks. The Layer 4-7 Policy Enforcement Firewall (PEF) provides identity-based controls to enforce application-layer security and prioritization.
Eliminate branch complexity
Simplify management and enhance security with HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-Branch that combines best-in-class wireless, wired, and WAN infrastructure with unified management capabilities to maximize performance and minimize operational costs. Quickly define, tune, and optimize connectivity across a hybrid WAN of Internet, MPLS, and cellular.
Streamline operations
With AI-powered insights, workflow automation, and robust security, cloud-native HPE Aruba Networking Central simplifies the management and orchestration of campus, branch, remote, and data center networks. Zero Touch Provisioning simplifies deployment at branch sites.
Features
Modern gateways for a scalable and secure edge, Purpose-built high-performance edge appliance extends enterprise services to large branch and small campus networks.
Versatile scalability
Supports up to 4K APs and 10K clients and can be deployed as an SD-Branch gateway, as a powerful cloud-based wireless gateway, or as a VPN Concentrator (VPNC).
Quality of service
Consistently optimizes performance and usage policies for 3,800+ applications using deep packet inspection.
Seamless L2/L3 roaming
Supports tunneling so two disparate networks can connect directly to one another for seamless L2/L3 roaming in multi-VLAN environments.
High-speed interfaces
High-speed wired connectivity with up to four 10GbE fiber ports and up to four 1GbE combo ports for up to 20Gbps throughput.
High availability
Always-on high availability with live upgrades, clustering, and N+1 or NxN redundancy.
