Explanation

Note: The stated correct answer (C) appears to be an error in your source material. The actual correct answer is D - Virtual Intranet Access (VIA).

VIA is Aruba's purpose-built remote access VPN client solution. It authenticates remote employees, establishes a secure tunnel to the corporate network, and integrates with Aruba's Mobility Controllers - exactly matching the home-to-corporate use case described.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A. Branch Gateway - Connects entire branch offices to a central corporate network; not designed for individual home workers.
• B. Instant On APs - A lightweight Wi-Fi product line for SMBs; provides local wireless coverage, not secure remote corporate access.
• C. VSX (Virtual Switching Extension) - A high-availability data center switching technology that creates redundant switch pairs; has nothing to do with remote user connectivity.

Memory tip: Think of VIA as the road remote employees take into the corporate network - the name itself hints at "path inward." If the question mentions individual remote/home workers needing VPN-style access, VIA is always the answer.

Double-check your source - if this came from a practice exam or study guide, the answer key may have a typo assigning the answer to C instead of D.
