Aruba Clarity Live and Synthetic Feature on Airwave


The power of being “all knowing!”
Aruba Clarity gives you the power to foresee connectivity issues before they impact your Wi-Fi users. Let’s look at two ways you can unleash this power.

Live user monitoring: Get insight into real-time user connectivity, and configure thresholds and alerts to proactively resolve any problems with the different non-RF factors that can affect your end-users’ Wi-Fi experience.

Synthetic testing: Simulate the same user experience using an access point that acts as a client to run the tests – even before the users are in the picture. This is great for completely new rollouts, or simply scheduling regular tests as a best practice. You can even run on-demand tests as needed.
