Join us for the first of our Thursday Tech Talk series with the Carolina Advanced Digital crew. In this episode, we have a friend from Mist joining us to talk about returning safely to work with contact and proximity tracing inside the organization, how it’s different than the public-private app partnerships, and then we’ll hop over to a demo of Mist’s AI-based Wi-Fi, show you what’s going on in our office, and offer a sneak peek at some upcoming news.
Join Tech Talk episode 4 with the Carolina Advanced Digital crew. In this episode, Jen along with Dan and Mark (or whoever she can grab) will take a look back at the chaos of COVID-19 as organizations scrambled to work through remote access and the cleanup we need to do afterwards. Hosted by Jennifer Minella.

CLEARPASS OVERVIEW
From IoT to an always-on mobile workforce, organizations are more exposed to attacks than ever before. With Aruba ClearPass, customers get agentless visibility and dynamic role-based access control for seamless security enforcement and response across wired and wireless networks. Identifying who and what connects to the network is the first step to securing an enterprise. Control through the automated application of wired and wireless policy enforcement ensures that only authorized and authenticated users and devices are allowed to connect to the network. At the same time, real-time attack response and threat protection is required to secure and meet internal and external audit and compliance requirements.
With a built-in context-based policy engine, RADIUS, TACACS+, non-RADIUS enforcement using OnConnect, device profiling, posture assessment, onboarding, and guest access options, ClearPass is unrivaled as a foundation to Identify, Enforce and Protect network infrastructure of any size.

Aruba Central & AOS10 Hands-on Workshop (virtual)
Join Carolina Advanced Digital and Aruba! AOS10 represents an exciting turning point in Aruba’s OS lineage with an emphasis on cloud provisioning while providing support throughout the deployment lifecycle from implementation to maintenance in addition to providing robust troubleshooting tools for your network. Using this OS in conjunction with Aruba’s AI-driven Central Network Management platform, a key component of the Edge Services Platform (ESP), organizations have the flexibility to deploy Bridged, Tunneled, or Mixed hybrid models that enable upgrades with zero downtime, regardless of being in a controller-based or controller-less environment. This workshop seeks to demonstrate the ease with which Aruba Central (also simply referred to as “Central” throughout this guide) can be leveraged with the AOS10 release to easily deploy, maintain, and troubleshoot your wireless environment.
In this workshop, you will configure and validate the following:
• Configure an Aruba OS-CX Switch with Aruba Central
• Configure Bridged-Mode for Standalone AP operation
• Configure a Mobility Gateway Cluster within Central
• Configure Mixed-Mode to manage APs with Gateways while bridging clients on the same SSID simultaneously
• Secure the WLAN with Identity-Based Access Controls to implement ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access)
