     Aruba Networks, has spent substantial effort in developing this product and it is one of the first of its
     kind in industry. Having the subject information easily available to "competition" would negate the
     advantage they have achieved by developing this product. Not protecting the details of the design
     will result in financial hardship.

     Permanent Confidentiality:
     The applicant requests the exhibits listed above as permanently confidential be permanently
     withheld from public review due to materials that contain trade secrets and proprietary information
     not customarily released to the public.

     Short-Term Confidentiality:
     The applicant requests the exhibits selected above as short term confidential be withheld from public
     view for a period of 180 days from the date of the Grant of Equipment Authorization and prior to
     marketing. This is to avoid premature release of sensitive information prior to marketing or release
     of the product to the public. Applicant is also aware that they are responsible to notify ACB in the
     event information regarding the product or the product is made available to the public. ACB will then

    - The asterisked items (*) require further justification before permanent confidentiality will be allowed. These also currently
      require review by the FCC under their Permit-But-Ask policy before the grant is issued and can delay completion of an
      application. Further justification should be added to the note above. One such example for a potted device would be: “The
      EUT is FULLY potted using a non-removable epoxy based material. Removal of potting material causes irreparable
      damage to internal circuitry. See photographs exhibits that outline the device before and after potting.”


     release the documents listed above for public disclosure pursuant to FCC Public Notice DA 04-1705.




     NOTE for Industry Canada Applications:
     The applicant understands that until such time that IC distinguishes between Short Term and
     Permanent Confidentiality, either type of marked exhibit above will simply be marked Confidential
     when submitted to IC.

     Sincerely,

     By:      __________________________                        Robert Hastings: Regulatory Compliance Manager
                   (Signature/Title2)                                     (Print name)
