       SNMP::Info::Layer3::Aruba is a subclass of SNMP::Info that provides an interface to Aruba wireless
       switches.  The Aruba platform utilizes intelligent wireless switches which control thin access points.
       The thin access points themselves are unable to be polled for end station information.

       This class emulates bridge functionality for the wireless switch. This enables end station MAC addresses
       collection and correlation to the thin access point the end station is using for communication.

       $aruba->peth_port_neg_power()
           The power, in milliwatts, that has been committed to this port.   This  value  is  derived  from  the

   ArpCacheTableAugmentation
       The controller has knowledge of MAC->IP mappings for wireless clients.  Augmenting  the  arp  cache  data
       with  these  MAC->IP  mappings  enables  visibility  for stations that only communicate locally.  We also
       capture the AP MAC->IP mappings.
