Aruba Central supports site-to-site VPNs between AOS 10 gateways, which are Aruba devices that provide routing, firewall, and VPN functions. Aruba Central can automatically provision and manage the site-to-site VPNs using the VPN Manager feature. The VPN Manager allows you to create VPN groups that consist of one or more hubs and branches, and define the VPN settings for each group1

Aruba Central uses IPsec as the protocol to secure the site-to-site connections between the AOS 10 gateways. IPsec is a standard protocol that provides encryption, authentication, and integrity for IP packets. Aruba Central automatically establishes IPsec tunnels for all site-to-site connections using keys that are securely distributed by Central. The keys are generated by Central and pushed to the gateways using a secure channel. The keys are rotated periodically to enhance security2
