# Aruba New Central

Hamina Network Planner includes integration with Aruba New Central, which can be used to import maps and access points (including model, name, MAC, serial) into Hamina Network Planner. Then, you can add walls, attenuating objects, and scope zones to simulate the current network configuration in a predictive model.

{% hint style="info" %}
Support for exporting from Hamina Network Planner to Aruba New Central is in development! You can [track the status of the issue on the Hamina feedback page](https://feedback.hamina.com/suggestions/341313/export-from-hamina-to-aruba-central-capability).
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Buildings and floorplans must be defined in Aruba New Central. No data will be returned from Aruba Central, so no buildings or floorplans will be imported to Hamina Network Planner.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Map/floor names must not exceed 32 characters. Hamina Network Planner will truncate map names that are more than 32 characters long.
{% endhint %}
