Features
• Optimizes network bandwidth and performance
The HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 offers performance, scale, and automation for distributing advanced networking and security services where it’s impractical and costly to force traffic back and forth across the network to a centralized policy enforcement point. Instead, it simply applies services at the services network access layer edge, where the applications are running.
• Improves security posture and limits appliance sprawl
Centralized security appliances are inefficient and expensive at inspecting and protecting east-west application traffic within the data center. Hair-pinning traffic to an appliance at the data center edge comes with heavy performance and cost penalties. The HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 provides an entirely new switching solution to overcome these legacy limitations.
• Extends Zero Trust and micro segmentation
The HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 allows operators to extend industry standard leaf-spine networking with 800G of distributed micro-segmentation, east-west firewalling, NAT, encryption and telemetry services—delivered inline, across every port, closer to critical enterprise applications.
• Simplifies operations
HPE Aruba Networking Fabric Composer provides unified network and security management for the HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 platform. This provides automated switch and network configurations, while also unifying security policy and distributed firewalls across the entire switching fabric. This unified network and security policy management significantly simplifies operations and troubleshooting.
