Aruba Virtual Gateways are deployed in public cloud infrastructure, such as an Amazon Web Services virtual private cloud (AWS VPC). They serve as a virtual instance of a headend gateway that enables seamless and secure connectivity for all branch and data center locations connecting to public clouds. With support for public Internet and private connections such as Direct Connect, virtual gateways provide application visibility, granular QoS and dynamic path steering. Each virtual gateway supports up to 500 Mbps of throughput, with licenses that come in 1, 3, and 5 year options, with no additional software usage costs in AWS VPC. The licenses also enable access to the Virtual Gateway Orchestration App in Aruba Central. The orchestration app completely automates VPC discovery, subnet management, gateway onboarding, high availability (HA) configuration and status monitoring.
