Have You Heard About HER?
I don’t often travel to industry events, but next week I will be joining Tom Hollingsworth and the Field Day delegates for Mobility Field Day Exclusive at Aruba Atmosphere 2019. Even though Las Vegas is not one of my favorite cities, I am really looking forward to it. One session that looks to be a highlight for me is “Experience the Power of HER”!
Aruba and the Need for WPA3 with OWE
WPA3 is the new wireless authentication protocol just around the corner. It’s being developed to fix some of the issues with the ancient WPA2 protocol. But what about open encryption? Why don’t we just run everything over SSL and save time? Tom Hollingsworth examines the need for WPA3 with OWE and why TLS alone isn’t going to work.
Building a Software Defined Branch with Aruba
Branch offices need more than just a WAN. They need user policies, security for IoT, and more. Tom Hollingsworth takes a look at the new Software Defined Branch offering from Aruba and discusses how it can help organizations building on their WAN for the future.

Designing a Campus Switch with a “Carrier-Grade” Mindset
Kevin Myers takes a look at the Aruba 8400 switch and the briefing from Networking Field Day Exclusive with Aruba. He highlights many of the features of the switch, from both a hardware and software perspective, that help the platform function from a carrier-grade perspective. A switch that is built to last and extend into any role that you might need it to fill.
Network Longevity – Think Car, Not Smartphone
With all the expectations and hype that surround software-defined networkings, it’s easy to get a little jaded. But that misses the massive impact it’s had for enterprise networks. In this piece, Tom Hollingsworth rightly points out that this programmability is no longer a new feature that network engineers are excited about. Instead, it’s become a staple of the modern data center, one that increasingly organizations depend on.
