Hi,
Noticed that clients with a statically configured IP address are not showing up with their IP address in the clients table on an Aruba 2930M switch, running 16.08.0003.
However, the description of ip client-tracker in the manual states: "Enables the visibility of statically and dynamically assigned IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for both authenticated and
unauthenticated clients." (page 291 of the Access Security Guide, version 16.08).
CLI output:
Behind port 5/7 is IP address 10.14.12.205, and I can ping it. But it does not show up in the switch.
Also read this in the manual:
An end client that gets IP address from a DHCP address will be included by default in RADIUS accounting
packets. Visibility of statically assigned IP addresses in RADIUS accounting is available with a command that
enables and disables static IP visibility for an authenticated client.
So I checked the RADIUS accounting being sent to ClearPass, to make sure it's not just an visibility bug: but it turns out that the RADIUS Framed-IP field is not updated with accounting either.
According to my colleagues, this is consistent on different switch software versions.
The question that remains: is the feature not working properly, or is the manual incorrect?
Has anyone noticed this too?
Regards,
Dante
