Integrated Deployment Model
In the integrated deployment model, AirGroup features are integrated with the WLAN controller that
terminates all APs and provides WLAN services. This deployment model also supports optional integration with
CPPM. When you implement AirGroup in an integrated deployment, upgrade the controller to ArubaOS 6.4 or
later, and trunk all VLANs with wired devices (such as printers) to the AirGroup controller.
If your deployment requires ClearPass Policy Manager integration, complete the procedures described in ClearPass
Policy Manager User Guide and ClearPass Guest Deployment Guide before performing the steps described in this
section.
Master-Local Controller Synchronization
You can configure AirGroup from the master controller to ease the deployment. The master controller then
synchronizes the AirGroup configuration elements on all associated local controllers it manages. AirGroup
configurations can belong to any of the following categories:
Master — These commands must be configured from a master controller. The master controller pushes the
AirGroup configurations to all the applicable local controllers.
l AirGroup custom service definition. For more information, see Integrated Deployment Model on page
1005.
l AirGroup disallow user-role (service filtering) definition. For more information, see Configuring the disallow-
role for an AirGroup Service on page 1010.
l AirGroup disallow VLAN (service filtering) definition. For more information, see Restricting AirGroup Servers
on a VLAN based on an AirGroup Service on page 1010.
l AirGroup CPPM enforce registration. For more information, see Configuring CPPM to Enforce Registration
on page 1022.
l AirGroup controller-CPPM Interface definition. For more information, see Configuring the AirGroup-CPPM
Interface on page 1016.
l AirGroup multi-controller domain definition. For more information, see Configuring an AirGroup Domain on
page 1012.
l AirGroup CPPM query interval definition. For more information, see Configuring the CPPM Query Interval
on page 1017.
Local — There are a few configuration limitations on the local controller. The local controller can only include
the existing AirGroup domains in the AirGroup active-domain list, applicable for this controller. The local
controller cannot define or edit an AirGroup domain.
These configuration commands are applicable to both master and local controllers. The master controller does
not push the following AirGroup configuration commands to all applicable local controllers.
l AirGroup enable/disable parameter. For more information, see Enabling or Disabling AirGroup Global
Setting on page 1006.
l AirGroup service enable/disable parameter. For more information, see Enabling or Disabling an AirGroup
Service on page 1011.
