against specific groups of people. Such content is not representative of our HPE culture and moving
forward, Aruba will replace racially insensitive terms and instead use the following new language:
Usage Old Language New Language

Campus Access Points + Controllers Master-Slave Conductor-Member

Instant Access Points Master-Slave Conductor-Member

Switch Stack Master-Slave Conductor-Member

Wireless LAN Controller Mobility Master Mobility Conductor

Firewall Configuration Blacklist, Whitelist Denylist, Allowlist

What's New
This chapter describes the features, enhancements, and behavioral changes introduced in this release.

New Features and Enhancements

This section describes the features and enhancements introduced in this release.

Short Supported Release

Instant AOS-8.12.0.0 is a Short Supported Release (SSR).

Enhancement for Configuring Non-DFS Channels

Starting with Instant AOS-8.12.0.0, when configuring access point control settings for the 5 GHz radio, a
new checkbox named Check All Non-DFS Channels is available to select all Non-DFS channels at once
in order to remove them from the allow-channel list. In the WebUI, this new checkbox can be found
under Configuration > RF > ARM > Show advanced options > Customize valid channels > Valid 5
GHz channels> Edit > Check All Non-DFS Channels.

SKU Number Added to the show activate status Command

Starting with Instant AOS-8.12.0.0, APs will display their SKU number to identify themselves to
Activate/Central if the SKU number is shipped in flash.

No Support for Air Slice in Instant AP Deployments

Starting with Instant AOS-8.12.0.0, Air Slice support will not be available. If Air Slice is enabled prior to
the upgrade, it will be displayed as enabled in the configuration, but it will not take effect internally. The
following commands have been impacted:

n show datapath session dpi

n show datapath ipv6 session
n show datapath acl
n show datapath acl-rule
n airslice-policy
n show ap debug airslice client-stats
n show ap bss-table

External Antenna Provision Support for 6 GHz

In Instant AOS-8.12.0.0, 6 GHz external antenna provision configuration is available in the radio settings
of APs. The external-antenna-6ghz and ant-pol-6ghz commands have been included as a knob to
properly configure 6 GHz external antenna gain.

Support for 6 GHz Configurations in REST APIs

Aruba Instant 8.12.0.0 | Release Notes 7

 Instant AOS-8.12.0.0 supports 6 GHz in REST APIs, which includes the addition of radio-profile-6ghz, utb-
filter-block and rf-zone APIs, as well as new JSON parameters in ssid, channel and radio-state APIs. It
also adds Norma and Leo as platforms to the allowed list of API upgrades.

Support for Backup Central On-Premises Server IP Addresses in

DHCP Option 43
DHCP option 43 will now support an alternate IP address for data center redundancy. This will help
customers with multiple data centers set up a backup server IP address for APs to switch to in case of a
localized failure. This configuration can be applied through the ip dhcp pool option 43 CLI command.

Enhanced Debugging Experience in the Radio Profile

The scheduler-mode parameter is added to the radio profile in order to provide a better debugging
experience. The parameter accepts two possible configurations, fairness and latency. The default
parameter is set to fairness, which enables Traffic Allocation Framework (TAF) on the radio profile. The
latency parameter disables TAF. Aruba Technical Support should be contacted in order to adjust the
scheduler-mode configuration. Modifying this configuration without guidance from Aruba Technical
Support could cause fairness issues on the network.

AP-584 Outdoor Operation is now Supported in France and Israel

The DRT information for AP-584 access points now complies with the regulatory guidelines that allow
for outdoor operation in France and Israel.

Support for 670 Series Outdoor Access Points

The 670 Series access points (AP-675, AP-675EX, AP-677, AP-677EX, AP-679, and AP-679EX) are 802.11ax
Wi-Fi 6E Outdoor Access Points that offer 2x2 MIMO radios, allowing for simultaneous tri-band
operation. These APs also feature a wired 2.5 Gbps Smart Rate network interface and one SFP port for
fiber support. If deployed with Instant AOS-8, the Aruba670 Series access points will only operate as a
dual-band AP in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios. For 6 GHz operation, the APs require AOS-8 8.12.0.0 or
later versions and deployments managed by a Mobility Conductor.
Additional features include:

n Data rates up to 2.4 Gbps

n Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC)
n Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA)
n IoT-ready (integrated Bluetooth 5 and 802.15.4 radio for Zigbee support)
n Target Wake Time (TWT) for improved client power savings
n Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)

For complete technical details and installation instructions, see the Aruba 670 Series Access Points
Installation Guide.

Introduction of Dynamic Antenna Selection for AP-679 and AP-679EX

offering deeper insights into client presence within the network infrastructure. This update is pivotal for
businesses seeking advanced analytics in environments where understanding visitor behavior and
network usage patterns is essential. New commands laa-counter-msg and laa-counter-msg-interval
are introduced. Counters are sent to ALE using profile default-ale.

Virtual Access Point Configuration for 6 GHz in MBSSID Groups

This release introduces support for up to 8 Virtual Access Points (VAPs) on the 6 GHz radio. This update
significantly expands the possibilities for network customization and segmentation, particularly
beneficial for complex or high-density environments. The commands show mbssid-group-profile,
show mbssid-group-profile <profile name>, mbssid-group-profile <profile name>, and no mbssid-
group-profile <profile name> are introduced for visualizing and configuring MBSSID group profiles
and their references to SSID profiles.

Ability to Specify Key Type When Using EST

A new option to select RSA-4096 key length and ECDSA certificates is available. We support two types of
ECDSA keys and three types of RSA keys. For each type of RSA keys, two key lengths 2048 and 4096 are
available. Selecting any of the following certificates will override the default RSA-2048:

n csr-attribute ecdsa-prime256v1-with-sha256
n csr-attribute ecdsa-prime384r1-with-sha384

capability for dongles to generate a Claim-ID, a critical component for establishing a secure connection
to V:Cloud. This feature addresses the need for enhanced security in data communication between
retail management systems and V:Cloud.

Port Bounce for Wired Clients on Instant Access Points

This release introduces a new feature for Instant APs that automatically reinitiates DHCP requests
following a VLAN change. This enhancement specifically affects wired non-802.1x clients in scenarios
where there is a change in authorization events.

Deprecation of SHA-1 Cipher Suites for RadSec Server

The radsec-ciphers-level <all|high> parameter has been introduced under the wlan auth-server
command. The parameter allows users to include or exclude SHA-1 cipher suites from the RadSec
server.

Detection and Containment of Wi-Fi Direct Devices

The detect-wifi-direct-p2p-groups, protect-wifi-direct-p2p-groups, and wifi-direct-network-quiet-
time commands have been introduced to detect and contain devices associated with Wi-Fi Direct
groups under the IDS profile.

Vendor Specific IE based Containment

Instant AOS-8 allows users to configure exclusions for IDS containment based on vendor specific IE
information. This feature allows APs to be exempted from containment even when the devices use
randomized MAC addresses. To exempt APs from containment, users should configure the vendor OUI
and OUI type in the IDS unauthorized device profile. A maximum of five vendor OUI and OUI types can
be defined for confinement exclusion.

Support for NTP Authentication Mode

Instant AOS-8 allows users to configure Network Time Protocol (NTP) keys to authenticate servers. This
feature can be configured through the CLI using the ntp-authentication-key, ntp-trustedkey, and
ntp-server-key commands. The show ntp authentication keys and show running-config | include
ntp commands list the details of the configured ntp authentication keys.

Enhancement to IDS Rogue Classification

Aruba Instant 8.12.0.0 | Release Notes What's New | 11

 Both wireless and wired MAC addresses are recorded for IDS rogue detection, thus ensuring that the
Instant AP provides more details on IDS rogue classification to the user.

Support for SSL Throttling

SSL throttle can now be configured manually using the set-sysctl ssl_throttle_table command to a
value between 1–32; the default value is 16. The get-sysctl ssl_throttle_table command can be used to
view the configured SSL throttle value.

Firmware Synchronization Improvement in CoP for Instant AP

Cluster with Different Models
Instant AOS-8.12.0.0 improves firmware synchronization in CoP for Instant AP cluster with different
models.

Enhancement to debug pkt dump for Enforce DHCP Violation

The output for debug pkt dump includes information regarding packets drops that occur due to
enforce DHCP violations.

VAP Creation in 500 Series APs with New Toggle for GCM-256
Encryption
The gcm-256-sw-encrypt-support command has been introduced to enable/disable GCM-256 software
encryption and allow for Virtual AP creation in both CNSA and non-CNSA SSIDs. This new configuration
benefits those APs that do not support hardware encryption, like the 510 Series and 570 Series. By
default, this configuration is disabled. So, it is important to note that if upgrading from Instant AOS-
8.11.x to Instant AOS-8.12.x, GCM-256-based VAPs on the affected platforms will be disabled, and
enabling the command will be required to configure them. Also, please be aware that software
encryption has significantly lower performance than hardware encryption.

Behavioral Changes
This release does not introduce any changes in Instant AOS-8 behaviors, resources, or support that
would require you to modify the existing system configurations after updating to 8.12.0.0.
