It is useful for network administrators who need to query detailed data about gateway devices, such as their status, metrics, and configurations, directly from Aruba Central.

Use Case Examples

  1. A network admin wants to monitor the status and performance of a gateway device by its serial number.
  2. An automated workflow retrieves gateway details to trigger alerts or update a network management system.
