+Note: Aruba and ZF Openmatics: Aruba and ZF Openmatics offer a solution for managing ZF TAGs and implementing BLE Bluetooth Low Energy functionality. This integration enables devices to run for extended durations with low power consumption; You can manage ZF TAGs and implement BLE location service using the third-party ZF Openmatics. To support this feature, Aruba Instant APs with built-in IoT-protocol radio (BLE) are required. You can configure the Instant APs to support ZF Openmatics using the IoT profiles.
