Firmware Image Server in Cloud Network
The image check feature allows the IAP to discover new software image versions on a cloud-based image server
hosted by Dell. The location of the image server is fixed and cannot be changed by the user. Dell takes care of
managing the image server, and ensures that the image server is loaded with latest versions of ArubaOS software
for its products.
The Virtual Controller (VC) in Instant AP communicates with the Image server via an Aruba Networks
proprietary protocol. The Image server queries the VC. The VC returns the following information:
Current software version
Type Code
Globally Unique ID (GUID)
OEM-Tag
Organization (if available)
Access Point Information (for each AP attached to the VC)
AP type
AP serial number
The VC expects the available upgrade VC software version and the URL in return. This query normally happens
once in a week.
