Wired Intelligent Edge

Hi there

 

My 6300m VSF Stack members are not in the same Building.
I will configure the "Split Detection".
Is it only possible to do this by MGMT RJ45 Port?
Is it possible to configure this over a separate VLAN on the Access Switches / what are the steps for doing this?

 

Thanks for your help.

 

I'm sorry --> its the wrong forum. How can I move this to:

 

*Wired Intelligent Edge (Campus Switching and Routing)*

Take a look at this: https://community.arubanetworks.com/aruba/attachments/aruba/lms/14/2/ArubaOS%20VSF%20Configuration%20Guide.pdf

 

This should be enough to get you going.

 

 

 

Hi and Thanks a lot for your reply.

I configured it on some 5400 Aruba Switches like this an it worked correctly.

But now I try to make this on an 6300m  VSF Stack and I struggle with the configuration. When I refer to this guide, there is no command to do expect: "vsf split-detect mgmt-interface"

https://techhub.hpe.com/eginfolib/Aruba/OS-CX_10.04/5200-6790/index.html#GUID-D8A2430B-C918-4FC6-AD8D-ECCBA07EA2D2.html

 

But I can't find a guide how to configure the mgmt Ports for this.

 

 

Take a look at this: https://community.arubanetworks.com/aruba/attachments/aruba/CampusSwitching/8324/1/AOS-CX%20VSF%20Best%20Practices.pdf

 

 

Now it works. I hadto enter the command:  "vsf secondary-member 2"

Before there was a master and a member --> now there is a master and a standby and now the split detection work when they are directly connected. 

 

Tomorrow I will try to do the split detection over a L2 VLAN on the Access switches because the 6300m are not in the same building. 

 

I will let you know if it works as expected 

I've tested it now over a L2 VLAN on the access Switches and it works as expected.

So the main thing was to set the second Switch in the stack as "vsf secondary-member 2".

 

Thanks for your help.

Kind regards

Greetings!

 

In AOS-CX VSF stacks on the 6300 and 6200 switch families, split detection uses a connection between management ports on the primary and secondary members, and requires both to be connected to a common Layer 2 broadcast domain (not necessarily directly connected to each other or to a single common switch). 

@DominikGy May I know what commands did you tried for this using VLAN on a access layer switch​
