PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Why use PRTG as your Aruba monitoring tool?


Ensure your company can work without interruption – with Aruba monitoring with Paessler PRTG.

PRTG provides a detailed overview of all the Aruba devices in your network, and immediately sounds the alarm if preset or user-defined threshold values are exceeded. This way, you can quickly fix hardware malfunctions or WLAN performance issues, for example.

Routers, access points, and switches are the backbone of any wireless network. These components are responsible for the speed, reliability, and coverage of your company’s IT infrastructure. To keep them at peak performance, you should monitor them 24/7 with Aruba monitoring software like PRTG.

4 advantages of Aruba monitoring with PRTG

backup

24/7 status of all devices

Are your Aruba access points and switches always online and accessible? With PRTG, you can check the health and availability of all your network devices at a glance and analyze their status over longer periods of time using PRTG’s comprehensive historical data.

bulb

Know your bottlenecks

Do individual access points become overloaded? Does the connection slow down when lots of coworkers log in via their mobile devices? Thanks to PRTG’s bandwidth and traffic sensors, you’ll know exactly which times of the day the WLAN is used the most.

feed

Optimize signal strength

Do your coworkers complain about weak signal strengths in certain parts of the building? Use custom SNMP sensors to check the signal strength of your Wi-Fi so you can optimize your network. With PRTG, you’ll immediately see if more access points are needed.

mobile

Enjoy mobile app use

PRTG comes with mobile apps for iOS and Android so you can keep an eye on your network while on the go through the data center. A quick glance at the device overview is all it takes to determine, for example, whether your WLAN troubleshooting was a success.

What Aruba network observability looks like in PRTG

Diagnose network issues by continuously tracking Aruba network performance. Show hardware health, response time, bandwidth usage, network traffic, Wi-Fi signal strength, and other key metrics in real time. Visualize monitoring data in clear graphs and dashboards to identify problems more easily. Gain the overview you need to troubleshoot your IT operations and enhance end-user experience.

How to monitor Aruba with PRTG

one

Add Aruba devices and create PRTG sensors

Add Aruba devices to your PRTG monitoring environment and configure appropriate sensors for each device.

Most Aruba access points and switches support SNMP, enabling automatic network discovery that creates sensors with minimal effort. After discovery, you can fine-tune these sensors to match your specific monitoring requirements.

two

Create dashboards and network topology maps

Create an overview of your wireless network environment. The Sunburst view in PRTG is generated with a single click and displays your entire network topology.

Or use the PRTG Maps feature to build custom views of your Aruba network via drag and drop, exactly the way you want.

three

Customize notifications for fast troubleshooting

PRTG allows custom warning and error thresholds for each sensor, triggering immediate notifications when values exceed or fall below your specified limits. 

This proactive monitoring enables you to swiftly address bandwidth bottlenecks and prevent potential network failures before they impact operations.

PRTG is compatible with all major vendors, products, and systems

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

“From a server perspective, we're monitoring all of the key components of our service such as CPU usage, RAM disk space, the Windows services that it's running, and network connectivity of that server. In terms of networks, we’re monitoring all of our switches, firewalls, and access points. It’s really useful to be able to easily pull performance metrics from the PRTG dashboard.”

Ollie Kerslake, Infrastructure Lead
Riverford Organic Farmers

“The tool has given us greater control over all types of devices connected to the network (switches, IP telephony, security cameras, IoT, WiFi) that previously remained opaque when dealing with service incidents. This has improved our ability to diagnose and resolve problems, which has translated into greater efficiency and a better user experience in both internal and public services.”

Jordi Tolosà Bel, New Technologies Technician
Vinaroz City Council

“Our objective was to be able to monitor the health of our most critical servers containing data and applications, but also the flows and bandwidth between headquarters, our 50 servers in the cloud and the 15 servers at our production sites. For us, it is essential to have a proactive approach to understand where the weaknesses of the IT system are to be able to improve them.”

Marc Boullier, CIO

Aruba Monitoring: FAQ

 

What is Aruba?

Aruba Networks is a leading network technology provider. A subsidiary of Hewlett Packard Enterprise, it is best known for its wired, wireless, and SD-WAN technology, including access points, controllers, and switches. It also develops a variety of security and management solutions.

What is Aruba monitoring?

Aruba monitoring refers to the tools and processes that IT teams use to monitor the performance, health, and security of Aruba Networks infrastructure, including wireless access points, switches, and controllers. This includes:

  • Continuously monitoring the status of Aruba network devices such as access points (APs), controllers, and switches.
  • Providing insights into device performance, uptime, and potential hardware issues.
  • Tracking the data traffic across the network, including user activity, application usage, and bandwidth consumption.
  • Helping identify bottlenecks, high bandwidth users, and other potential performance issues.
  • Monitoring network traffic for suspicious activity and potential security breaches.
  • Measuring Wi-Fi signal strength, interference, and client connectivity.
Why is Aruba monitoring with PRTG important?

Aruba monitoring with Paessler PRTG allows for the quick and easy integration of Aruba devices into your monitoring environment. It lets you keep a constant eye on your entire network infrastructure, no matter if you run an on-premises, cloud-based, or hybrid cloud network, and ensures your company can work without interruption.

What is a sensor in PRTG?

In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive. On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.

We asked: would you recommend PRTG? Over 95% of our customers say yes!

Paessler conducted trials in over 600 IT departments worldwide to tune its network monitoring software closer to the needs of sysadmins. The result of the survey: over 95% of the participants would recommend PRTG – or already have.
