    Posted Jan 28, 2021 07:33 AM
    i have confgured a VB script to login to aruba controller to get ssid-profile from the IP on aruba OS6

    i was using the following sequence

    ### Holds the AP IP Address and bounded AP-Group
    (HomeLAB-MC01) [MDC] *#show ap database

    ### Show the VAP Profiles that are used in the AP-Group
    (HomeLAB-MC01) [MDC] *#show ap-group HomeLAB

    ### Show the SSID Profile that is used VAP Profile test
    (HomeLAB-MC01) [MDC] *#show wlan virtual-ap test

    ### Show the settings of the SSID profile
    (HomeLAB-MC01) [MDC] *#show wlan ssid-profile test_ssid_prof


    now we have upgraded the OS to ArubaOS8 , and the above commands was not working , is there any idea how to cover this on the new version?

    Hi Raed,

    It is still there, but in order to see the same output, you need to move to 'mdconnect' mode on target controllers (MD).

    What you have to do first is to navigate to MD on which you want to check AP-Group/VAP/SSID:

    #cd <MD-hostname>​
    (MD-hostname)#mdconnect

    This will log you into your MD (node), and there you can do all of show commands.

    This mdconnect is only needed if you have deployed a Mobility Conductor (previously MM) that manages multiple controllers. I think you have a standalone controller, in which case the commands you mention should just work.

    When you are connected to the Mobility Conductor (MM), you can use the mdconnect command to login to one of your managed devices (controllers). If you login directly to a controller, that is not needed.

    Where are you logging into?

    If you have your script logging in, try to first manually log in through SSH and check if you use the commands from the CLI if they don't work either. Please share the output that you see, as I don't see any reason why these commands would not work.
