  • 1.  Aruba OS Switches: PXE Boot over LACP Trunk doesn't work

    Posted Jul 19, 2021 02:34 PM
    Hello!

    I ran into an issue regarding PXE Boot over trunked Interfaces (LACP). A server is connected to a Aruba 5406R zl2 over 2 interfaces, which are configured into a lacp-trunk and runs fine so far during normal operation. But sometimes the server needs to be reinstalled over PXE. This doesn't work, because during the pxe-boot the server doesn't send LACP BPDUs and therefore the connection doesn't come up. On Juniper-EX Switches there was a solution with the option 'lacp force-up', which enabled one of the trunked interfaces as a single link.

    I can't find a solution for this on the Aruba Switches. Any help would be appreciated!

    ArubaOS ? ArubaCX ?

    Because there is a same option with ArubaCX

    ------------------------------
    PowerArubaSW : Powershell Module to use Aruba Switch API for Vlan, VlanPorts, LACP, LLDP...

    PowerArubaCP: Powershell Module to use ClearPass API (create NAD, Guest...)

    PowerArubaCL: Powershell Module to use Aruba Central

    PowerArubaCX: Powershell Module to use ArubaCX API (get interface/vlan/ports info)..

    ACEP / ACMX #107 / ACDX #1281
