Aruba 3810m - IPSEC Discussion

  • 1.  Aruba 3810m - IPSEC Discussion

    Posted Aug 04, 2016 07:29 PM

    I've been building WAN mesh networks with ospf and IPSEC for some time using linux as a backbone.  This is tedious and time consuming, but it works very well.  This here Aruba 3810m appears to have some IPSEC functionality built into it.  I would like to understand what is possible in this regard.  I would like to think the 3810m could:

    1. Connect IPSEC tunnels to other 3810m switches

    2. Connect IPSEC tunnels to linux machines

    3. Route OSPF over all and set up a mesh for any number of locations.

    Can anyone tell me what is possible here?  This could sell a lot of switches (to me).


    #ipsec
    #ospf
    #WAN

    I am afraid you are going to be disappointed, as it doesn't appear possible.  The 3810m does not have this feature.  From what I read it only does IPSEC thorugh some wireless thingamabob, and you need some other piece for it.

    Yes.  I believe you are correct.  I will just have to contiue using the free tools.  Too bad.
