Opening Firewall Ports for Device Communication
Aruba Central can be accessed from the HPE GreenLake portal using the following URLs.
https://console.greenlake.hpe.com/
The URLs redirect to https://auth.hpe.com/ to present the HPE GreenLake login page.
Note: Starting 2024, the https://common.cloud.hpe.com/ URL will be deprecated.
For more information about accessing the HPE GreenLake portal and adding the Aruba Central app, Creating an Aruba Central Account.
Most of the communication between devices on the remote site and Aruba Central server in the cloud is carried out through HTTPS (TCP 443). To allow devices to communicate over a network firewall, ensure that the following domain names and ports are open.
This section includes the following topics:
- Domain Names for Aruba Central Portal Access
- Domain Names for Device Communication with Aruba Central
- Domain Names for Device Communication with Aruba Activate
- Cloud Guest Server Domains for Guest Access Service
- Domain Names for OpenFlow
- Domain Names for RCS
- Other Domain Names
