The correct answer isAbecause Aruba Central withDevice Insightprovidesreal-time discovery, classification, and monitoringof all connected devices—including IoT, BYOD, and corporate endpoints. This visibility is essential for identifying unmanaged or rogue devices, applying role-based access, and minimizing risks that come from a rapidly expanding device landscape.
Relevant extracts from official HPE Aruba Networking documentation:
“Device Insight in Aruba Central uses AI/ML to automatically discover and profile all devices, including IoT and personal endpoints, with high confidence.”
“By providing continuous visibility and monitoring, Device Insight enables IT to detect rogue or misbehaving devices before they become a threat.”
“Central integrates with ClearPass to enforce least-privilege access policies based on device type and context.”
“This capability helps security admins close blind spots and manage risks associated with the proliferation of IoT and unmanaged devices.”
Why the other options are incorrect:
BGreenLake for Networking is a consumption and service model, not a feature directly tied to IoT and personal device risk management.
CUnified Infrastructure simplifies multi-domain management but does not directly address device-level visibility and risk.
DSD-WAN does not solve the IoT/personal device visibility challenge; it is focused on WAN optimization and security.
