whether the MC needs to support advanced 8.x features. This is because the Aruba 7000 Series MCs are based on the older hardware platform and can only run up to ArubaOS 6.5.x, while the Aruba 7200 Series MCs are based on the newer hardware platform and can run ArubaOS 8.x and above. ArubaOS 8.x introduces many advanced features, such as clustering, MultiZone, AirMatch, and dynamic segmentation, that are not supported by the Aruba 7000 Series MCs. Therefore, if the architect needs to design a solution that leverages these features, the Aruba 7200 Series MCs are the better choice.

Option A is incorrect because the number of wireless devices that the MC needs to support is not a key criteria to choose between the Aruba 7000 Series or 7200 Series MCs.Both series can support a similar number of devices, depending on the model and license.

Option B is incorrect because whether the MC needs to terminate VPN tunnels is not a key criteria to choose between the Aruba 7000 Series or 7200 Series MCs. Both series can terminate VPN tunnels, such as IPSec, GRE, and RAP, depending on the model and license.

Option C is incorrect because the need to deploy controllers in a cluster is not a key criteria to choose between the Aruba 7000 Series or 7200 Series MCs. Both series can participate in a cluster, as long as they run the same ArubaOS version and have the same license.

Specifically, it aligns with the objectives outlined in Chapter 6: Wireless Network Design, where the MC selection and ArubaOS 8.x features are discussed.

In the event of an MM outage, MCs continue to use their existing licenses for 30 days, and the network remains up. However, you cannot change the configuration items in the controller network. In addition, the MM manages many of the higher level functions that can cause issues in the network if the MM fails. Aruba recommends a backup MM for these situations. From an economic point of view, a backup MM for a VMM is free. If a customer has a hardware MM, the customer must purchase a backup hardware MM.

An active site survey is a method of measuring and validating the wireless coverage, capacity, and performance of a network in a specific environment. It involves deploying temporary APs in the proposed locations, collecting data using a survey tool, and analyzing the results to optimize the network design. A heat map is a graphical representation of the wireless signal strength, interference, noise, or other metrics in different areas of the site. A heat map with proposed AP locations and actual tested coverage is a deliverable that shows the customer the expected performance of the new 802.11ac-based solution, and allows the architect to fine-tune the AP placement, channel selection, transmit power, and antenna orientation. This deliverable also helps the customer to verify that the network meets their requirements for coverage, capacity, and quality of service. References:
