Network Management

Hi guys,

Really appreciate it if someone can help me on this matter, I know that Aruba cx 6200 has inter vlan routing but are there any documentation to prove that. i want some documentation to show.

thanks 

Hi, aren't the Aruba CX 6200's Layer 3 Routing features statements provided by the relevant Datasheet not enough?

Like:

"Layer 3 routing

The following layer 3 routing services are supported:

• Routing Information Protocol version 2 (RIPv2) provides an easy to configure routing protocol for small networks as while RIPng provides support for small IPv6 networks
• Single-area Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) delivers faster convergence; uses link-state routing Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP), which supports NSSA, and MD5 authentication for increased security and graceful restart for faster failure recovery
• OSPF provides OSPFv2 for IPv4 routing and OSPFv3 for IPv6 routing
• Static IP routing provides manually configured routing
• Static IPv4 routing provides simple manually configured IPv4 routing
• IP performance optimization provides a set of tools to improve the performance of IPv4 networks; includes directed broadcasts, customization of TCP parameters, support of ICMP error packets, and extensive display capabilities
• Static IPv6 routing provides simple manually configured IPv6 routing
• Dual IP stack maintains separate stacks for IPv4 and IPv6 to ease the transition from an IPv4-only network to an IPv6-only network design
• mDNS (Multicast Domain Name System) Gateway enables discovery of mDNS groups across L3 boundaries
• Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP) enables multiple equal-cost links in a routing environment to increase link redundancy and scale bandwidth
• Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) delivers faster convergence; uses link-state routing Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP), which supports ECMP, NSSA, and MD5 authentication for increased security and graceful restart for faster failure recovery
• Static IP routing provides manually configured routing; includes ECMP capability"

Despite all the above...in a system which support ACL...to me...it's implict that (inter-VLANs) IP Routing is an available feature [*] (it's essential to ACL to work AFAIK).

[*] ACL features are indeed available:

"Access control list (ACL) support for both IPv4 and IPv6; allows for filtering traffic to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the network, or for controlling network traffic to save resources; rules can either deny or permit traffic to be forwarded; rules can be based on a Layer 2 header or a Layer 3 protocol header"
