Print PageA power supply is used to connect the electric power cable. Operating power is also provided to a
compatible Power Over Ethernet (POE) device when connected. The power is provided through the
connected Ethernet cable.
The switch distinguishes between different forms of data, control, and status traffic over the network ports
by analyzing the packets header information and contents.
Roles and Services
The Aruba Mobility Controller supports role-based authentication. There are two roles in the switch (as
required by FIPS 140-2 Level 2) that operators may assume: a Crypto Officer role and a User role. The
Administrator maps to the Crypto-Officer role and the client Users map to the User role.
Crypto Officer Role
The Crypto Officer role has the ability to configure, manage, and monitor the switch. Three management
interfaces can be used for this purpose:
CLI
The Crypto Officer can use the CLI to perform non-security-sensitive and security-sensitive monitoring
and configuration. The CLI can be accessed remotely by using the SSHv2 secured management session
over the Ethernet ports or locally over the serial port. In FIPS mode, the serial port is disabled.
Web Interface
The Crypto Officer can use the Web Interface as an alternative to the CLI. The Web Interface provides a
highly intuitive, graphical interface for a comprehensive set of switch management tools. The Web
Interface can be accessed from a TLS-enabled Web browser using HTTPS (HTTP with Secure Socket
Layer) on logical port 4343.
Bootrom Monitor Mode
In Bootrom monitor mode, the Crypto Officer can reboot, update the Bootrom, issue file system-related
commands, modify network parameters, and issue various show commands. The Crypto Officer can
only enter this mode by pressing any key during the first four seconds of initialization. Bootrom Monitor
Mode is disabled in FIPS mode.
The Crypto Officer can also use SNMPv1/2c/3 to remotely perform non-security-sensitive monitoring and
use get and getnext commands. See the table below for descriptions of the services available to the Crypto
Officer role.
