Integrate
IoT Security
with
Aruba AirWave

Integrate
IoT Security
through
Cortex XSOAR
with
Aruba AirWave
.
Aruba AirWave
manages campus networks and uses
VisualRF
to create and manage floor plans and provision access points (APs). When you integrate
IoT Security
with
Aruba AirWave
,
IoT Security
can learn more information about devices from
VisualRF
, such as their physical location. This helps when troubleshooting requires locating a device for physical access.
IoT Security
retrieves floor plan maps and imports client information from
Aruba AirWave
.
Through the integration,
Aruba AirWave
sends the following information through
Cortex XSOAR
to
IoT Security
:
  • Access points, as well as their locations and SSIDs
  • A device's most recent access point
  • The physical location for devices, such as site, building, and floor
  • The VLAN that a device is assigned to
When
IoT Security
receives information for devices already in its inventory, it incorporates any additional information from
Aruba AirWave
into the data it previously gathered from network traffic and behavior analysis. Data that
IoT Security
already has supersedes duplicate or conflicting data from
Aruba AirWave
. For all other types of data, whatever is the most recent takes precedence, regardless of its source. For devices that aren't already in the
IoT Security
inventory,
IoT Security
creates new entries with the data that
Aruba AirWave
provides.
Integrating with Aruba Central requires either a full-featured Cortex XSOAR server or the purchase and activation of an
IoT Security
third-party integration add-on license, which comes with a free cohosted Cortex XSOAR instance. The basic plan includes a license for three integration add-ons, one of which can be used for
Aruba AirWave
. The advanced plan includes a license for all supported third-party integrations.
