IMC topology for ArubaOS-CX switches and SNMP

    Posted May 16, 2023 08:17 PM

    Hi All,
    Have a question regarding IMC topology displaying aggregated links on ArubaOS-CX switches.
    You can see on the below image that IMC correctly displays trunks with a circle on the links on HP 2530 switches and a Comware 5130 IRF switch, except for a connected ArubaOS-CX 6100 (JL679A) down the bottom, which is showing 3 links (the 2 physical interface links and the trunk/lag link).
    IMC is E0708P03 and firmware on the 6100 is 10.11.0001. I have another 6100 switch in which i have upgraded to 10.11.1010 and still the same issue.
    Is there something i am missing in the SNMP config on the 6100 switch?
    Is there any config required for a specific view or MIB, to have the LAG displayed as a line with a circle, like the other aggregated links.
    Regards,
    James

    Hello,

    Have you configured REST API access for IMC to the 6100 as well? With CX a lot of features are working only via API rather than SNMP, so it would be worth testing if this works for you. Just remember to synchronize the devices on both sides of the link and waiting a few minutes after configuring it.

    Hi Justin,
    Followed your instructions and configured RESTful API Parameters within IMC as image below, which tests successfully. Can get into REST web interface via https://x.x.x.x/api/v10.04, which just shows a list of commands (get/post/put). I re-synchronised devices on both sides of the link, but still the 6100 is displaying the 2 physical and 1 aggregated link. On Putty, sh https-server stated REST access mode is read-write. Is there anything else i need to look at/ commands i need to put in for the aggregated link to display as a single link with a circle.
    Regards,
    James

    Hi All,

    This issue of the LAG displaying 3 lines within IMC was resolved when i upgraded the firmware on the 6100 switch from 10.11.1010 to revision 10.12.0006. See image below.
