ClearPass is very well supported out-of-box for Provision/ArubaOS but not for Comware. IMC lacks proper support for Aruba wireless. Airwave and Central are useless for anything running on Comware 7. The main issue I have with that is that due to change of direction there's actually a complete mess of products. Don't think HPE is putting any effort into it In the access layer and in mid-size core it is certainly dead for HPE. That's marketing Comware7 is alive and well only because of New H3C. ![]() Probably Aruba direct/indirect sales and Aruba Partners have a mission: to push and sell Aruba products portfolio only.hiding the fact that HPE FlexNetwork product portfolio has (few) products still capable to go down up to the "access layer" (with PoE and all the bells&whistles).and (more) products capable to stay at the core of any DC, globally. OTOH DC requirements are quite different from Campus/Access ones.so new features, if any, appear slowly.also consider that Comware 7 is already a full-featured operating system and it has a very long heritage, given that it is positioned to run on Core and ToR Switch series.at DC robustness and service continuity win against new features and frequent releases (in Campus/Access we're used to see a lot of new features and a lot of software releases - or a short development cycle - In the access layer and in mid-size core it is certainly dead for HPE.Īccess and Campus core are now covered by Aruba Switch series because HPE decided that way after Aruba acquisition, yes that's true.but that doesn't mean that you can't purchase an HPE FlexNetwork 5510 and live well exactly as you do if you purchase an Aruba 3810M. ![]() I'm not totally sure about that.HPE divested its H3C assets in favour of Tsinghua in China back in mid 2015 but that event didnt't mean that existing and potential new DC oriented customers will not be able to find - actually - a suitable Comware 7 (and 5 too) products well documented abd kept up-to-date (and that, for HPE, means that their R&D+Support Teams put a lot of efforts). Don't think HPE is putting any effort into it anymore. Comware7 is alive and well only because of New H3C.
