The ArubaOS-CX modular, database-driven operating system helps to simplify a wide range of critical and complex network tasks.

AOS-CX
The Aruba CX 6100 Switch Series is based on AOS-CX, a modern, database-driven operating system that is built on a modular Linux architecture. This operating system provides the following unique capabilities:
  • Easy access to all network configuration state information.
  • REST APIs for fine-grained programmability of network tasks.
  • A micro-services architecture that enables full integration with other workflow systems and services.
  • All software processes communicate with the database rather than each other, ensuring near real-time state and resiliency.
Aruba ASICs
Aruba's programmable ASICs are purpose-built to allow for a tighter integration of switch hardware and software within campus and data center architectures to optimize performance and capacity. Based on the Aruba ASIC architecture, the CX 6100 switch series offers features such as low latency, increased packet buffering, and adaptive power consumption.
Aruba Central Management
Flexible cloud-based or on-premises management for unified network operations of wired, WLAN, SD-WAN, and public cloud infrastructure. Designed to simplify day zero through day two operations with streamlined workflows. Switch management capabilities include configuration, onboarding, monitoring, troubleshooting, and reporting.
Aruba NetEdit
With Aruba NetEdit, IT teams can orchestrate multiple switch configuration changes for smooth end-to-end service rollouts. Aruba NetEdit introduces automation that allows for rapid network-wide changes, and ensures policy conformance post network updates. Intelligent capabilities include search, edit, validation (including conformance checking), deployment, and audit features. Capabilities include centralized configuration with validation, simultaneous viewing and editing of multiple configurations, customized validation tests, automated large-scale configuration deployment, and network health and topology visibility via Aruba NAE integration.
Note:
A separate software license is required to use Aruba NetEdit.
Simplify Adds, Moves & Changes
Reduce manual IT operation tasks around initial deployment or ongoing configuration changes to accommodate adds, moves, and changes with colorless ports using local user roles and local-MAC-Authentication (LMA). Instead of statically pre-configuring access ports to VLANs and maintaining the switch port to VLAN mapping, colorless ports can automatically apply the role/policy required.
