Depend on your requirements. As Herman wrote, Aruba Central and/or Central NAC is a way to go. For simple authentication and roles Aruba Central is enough. For more complicated things, Central NAC. For really complicated things there is a Clearpass.

You probably should have a look at HPE Aruba Networking Central (with Cloud Authentication or Central NAC) or ClearPass.
