Product Description
HPE Aruba Networking 9012 (RW) Gateway – 12xGbE (6xPoE+), 2K Clients, 32 APs
Product Overview
The HPE Aruba Networking 9012 Gateway, part of the versatile 9000 Series, is a high-performance, cloud-managed networking solution designed for branch and small campus deployments. This powerful network switch and wireless controller combo delivers integrated SD-WAN, security, and wired and wireless connectivity in a single, cost-effective appliance. It supports up to 2,048 users, offers 6 Gbps firewall throughput, and includes 12 Gigabit Ethernet ports (6 with PoE+), making it an ideal Aruba solution for modern distributed enterprises.
Key Features
- Cloud-managed via HPE Aruba Networking Central for simplified operations
- 12x Gigabit Ethernet ports (6x PoE+ with 120W total power budget)
- Integrated SD-WAN and security with stateful firewall and IDS/IPS
- Dynamic Segmentation for unified policy enforcement across wired and wireless networks
- Application visibility and control for over 3,800 applications
- High availability with clustering support (up to 4 devices per cluster)
Core Technologies
The 9012 Gateway leverages several advanced technologies, including:
- Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) for application recognition and control
- EVPN/VXLAN overlay support via NetConductor
- Role-based Policy Enforcement Firewall (PEF)
- Integrated LTE (optional on 9004-LTE model)
- Bluetooth 5 and IoT radio support for BLE devices
- AI-powered operations via Aruba Central Insights
How It Works
The 9012 Gateway acts as a centralized policy enforcement point. Wired and wireless traffic is tunneled to the gateway, where user, device, and application-aware policies are applied based on roles defined in ClearPass Policy Manager. It supports both SD-WAN and traditional WLAN gateway modes, providing flexibility in deployment. In SD-WAN mode, it optimizes WAN traffic, prioritizes critical applications like Microsoft 365, and provides integrated threat defense.
Applications & Use Cases
- Branch office networking and SD-WAN deployment
- Small to mid-sized campus wireless and wired access
- Secure IoT device onboarding and segmentation
- Unified Communications and Collaboration (UCC) support
- Redundant and high-availability network clustering
