The Aruba 6000 is a modular, full-featured wireless LAN mobility controller that supports large deployments in a scaleable manner, that can be easily deployed as an overlay without any disruption to the existing wired network.

Aggregating up to 512 controlled Access Points (APs), the Aruba 6000 delivers mobility, centralized control, convergence services and security for wireless deployment all managed using the Aruba Mobility Management System.

The Aruba 6000 can be deployed as an identity-based security gateway to authenticate wired and wireless users, enforce role-based access control policies and quarantine unsafe endpoints from accessing the corporate network.

In addition, guest users can be easily and safely supported with the built-in captive portal server and advanced network services. These features allow the Aruba 6000 to create a secure networking environment without requiring additional VPN/firewall devices and include integrated site-to-site VPN, split-tunneling, ICSA-compliant stateful firewall and NAT. Site-to-site VPN can be integrated with all leading VPN concentrators to provide seamless integration into existing corporate VPNs.

And advanced convergence features such as Call Admission Control (CAC), voice-aware RF management and strict over-the-air QoS allow the Aruba 6000 to deliver mobile VoIP capabilities.
