The correct answer isBbecause one of the most common drivers for network upgrades is thatlegacy wireless infrastructure cannot meet the growing performance demands of users, IoT devices, and modern applications.With the proliferation of Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 6E, and now Wi-Fi 7, enterprises are upgrading networks to deliver higher capacity, lower latency, and improved user experience.
Relevant extracts from HPE Aruba Networking documentation:
“Many customers are upgrading to Aruba Wi-Fi 6/6E to address performance gaps created by legacy Wi-Fi networks that cannot meet today’s demand.”
“Network modernization is primarily driven by the need for higher wireless throughput, improved efficiency for IoT and mobile devices, and support for cloud-based applications.”
“As organizations embrace hybrid work and IoT, wireless networks that fail to deliver required performance have become a leading reason for infrastructure refresh.”
“Aruba ESP and Aruba Central enable IT to modernize networks to ensure consistent high-performance wireless experiences.”
Why the other options are incorrect:
ACore-to-edge interoperability is important, but not the most common driver compared to wireless performance issues.
CEthernet technology gaps exist but are secondary compared to wireless upgrade demands.
DCLI vs GUI management is a usability concern, but not the primary driver of network refresh projects.
