Aruba WLC Attribute Reference

Aruba WLC Attribute Reference

This reference lists the attributes that Device Security collects from Aruba WLC, their names as stored in Device Security, and the Device Security fields they map to.
When Device Security integrates with Aruba WLAN controllers, it imports wireless network data to enrich the device inventory. The attributes in this reference cover wireless client associations and access point configurations.
The third-party attribute name in Device Security refers to the attribute name as it appears in the Assets Inventory table and in Query Engine. This follows the format of third-party-name.attribute-name. When viewing the attribute name in the Assets Inventory table column selector or on a Device Details page, where the third-party name can be found as a header for the attributes section, then the third-party name is removed from the attribute name.
For example, micrsoft_defender_xdr.macAddress would appear in the Query Builder and in the Assets Inventory table, but under Device DetailsAttributesIntegration Specific AttributesMicrosoft Defender, the attribute would appear as macAddress.
