#SWITCH PORT MAPPING TEMPLATE PASSWORD#
If you are unable to view all details of the AOS-CX switch, then maybe the template configuration was not applied correctly, the password was missing in the template configuration, or the password was not in plaintext. See Using Configuration Templates for AOS-CX Switch Management. To view AOS-CX switches in the topology map, you must create a template configuration for the switch with the password in plaintext. Under Manage, click Devices > Switches.Ī list of switches is displayed in the List view.įor more information, see Monitoring Switches and Switch Stacks. The dashboard context for the selected filter is displayed.Ģ. For all devices, set the filter to Global.Įnsure that the filter selected contains at least one active switch. In the Network Operations app, set the filter to one of the options under Groups, Labels, or Sites. To view the operation status of switches and health of wired access network:ġ. You can also add variables to use the same template for onboarding multiple AOS-CX switches.įor more information on managing AOS-CX switches in Aruba Central, see Using Configuration Templates for AOS-CX Switch Management. You can use the output of the show running-config command to create the template. When initially onboarding an AOS-CX switch to Aruba Central, you must manually create the template for the switch in a group, along with the password in plaintext format. Ensure that you assign the AOS-CX switches to a template group. The following figure illustrates the group assignment workflow in Aruba Central:įigure 1 Group Assignment- AOS-CX SwitchesĪruba Central supports managing AOS-CX switches configuration using configuration templates only. Template groups allow you to configure devices using CLI-based configuration templates. Group AssignmentĪruba Central supports provisioning AOS-CX switches in template groups. When the switch is powered on, it identifies Aruba Central as its management entity and connects to Aruba Central.įor step-by-step instructions, see Provisioning Pre-Configured AOS-CX Switches.

or static IP address configured on the default.Īruba Central management service is enabled by default on AOS-CX switches. In computer networking, a single Layer 2 network may be partitioned to create multiple distinct broadcast domains, which are mutually isolated so that packets can only pass between them through one or more routers such a domain is referred to as a Virtual Local Area Network, Virtual LAN, or VLAN. Pre-configured switches have customized configuration for example, an additional VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Provisioning a Pre-configured or Locally-Managed Switch To manage AOS-CX switches from Aruba Central, you must onboard the switches to the device inventory and assign a valid subscription.įor step-by-step instructions, see Provisioning Factory Default AOS-CX Switches. When the switch identifies Aruba Central as its management entity, it connects to Aruba Central. When a new AOS-CX switch (factory default) is powered on, it automatically obtains IP address, connects to Aruba Activate and downloads the provisioning parameters. Switches with factory default configuration have very basic configuration for all ports in VLAN-1.
