| WatchGuard
Firebox Firewall Appliances |
|
| WatchGuard
firewall appliances provide complete,
policy-based rules enforcement

be added to Connect EZ Solution
Suites built around non-Aruba hardware
to give them, to the highest level
of security. There are even some
features that a WatchGuard firewall
can bring to an Aruba Mobility
Controller. |
