- traceroute66 5y ago> Aruba's Instant On range is a direct competitor to Unifi. This is correct. (Although I can't vouch for it as I've never used it, my comments above were strictly related to the "full-fat" version of Aruba). > It also doesn't require a controller. Your implication that "full-fat" HP Aruba always requires an external controller is not correct. All current "full-fat" APs can operate either controller-less or with controller (IIRC in North America you need to be careful what part number you order, outside North America they all ship controller-less out of the box). Indeed, "full-fat" controller-less mode is very clever indeed. The APs run the controller on-board. When you have multiple APs they will form a cluster, and they will perform an election to determine master, failover is seamless.
