Hi folks, I'm very new to Aruba switches so would appreciate some pointers on how to configure my network.
I have a 2930f and a 2540. I've configured my 2930f as L3, with intervlan routing and point-to-point connection to the firewall, and reverse route from firewall back to the 2930f for all the corresponding subnets. Everything is working fine.
I am now scratching my head on how to configure the 2540 as L2 only.
My understanding (based on what I've read) is to NOT use the default VLAN (i'll remove ports associated with VID 1 on the 2930f as i continue the config).
Further, since all routing should be done by the 2930f, is it correct to configure all the VLANs on the 2540 with no ip address and no ip routes?
And now i'm trying to figure out how to configure the 2540's management to be on VLAN 100, and still can be access throughout the network, when no ip routes and ip address are associated with the VLANs on the 2540.
Any guidances will be much appreciated. Below is the config for my 2930f. Thanks.
