HPE

Importer Data Types

• Asset Details Enrichment and Create New in Vantage

  HPE Aruba Networking Central supplies records including device name, IP, MAC, model, serial, firmware version, site, group and last-modified timestamp — to enrich existing Vantage assets and create new asset records for endpoints not yet observed on the OT network.

Joint Use Cases

• Correlating HPE signals with OT network alerts

  When Nozomi Vantage raises an anomaly alert for a device inside an OT segment, the analyst can pivot to the same asset's HPE Aruba Networking Central record in Vantage to review topology neighbours, firmware version and uplink port state, all without leaving the Vantage investigation workflow. This cross-layer correlation surfaces whether a network-layer anomaly coincides with activity observed by HPE, reducing the time needed to confirm or dismiss an incident.

• Closing asset inventory gaps across IT and OT

  Devices recorded by HPE Aruba Networking Central but not yet observed by Nozomi network sensors are automatically created as new asset records in Vantage, populated with device name, model, firmware, site and uplink topology drawn from the HPE management plane. OT operations teams can audit the resulting unified inventory to identify unmonitored or underprotected assets in industrial and critical infrastructure zones, then prioritize sensor deployment accordingly.

• Unifying network-device inventory across IT and OT

  Switch, router and access-point inventory from HPE Aruba Networking Central is combined with Vantage's OT-network discovery to provide a single map of network infrastructure spanning carpeted spaces, process networks and DMZs.
