Creating and Viewing Support Case from Airheads Social

By alc posted Mar 16, 2013 04:38 PM

  

We are pleased to announce several exciting new features connecting Airheads, Aruba Support Center and Partner Center.  If you have a valid support contract with Aruba Networks, you now have the ability to submit a new support request, view and update existing support cases from the Airheads community. After logging into Airheads with an entitled Single Sign-On account, you will see three new buttons on the right hand column of the community home screen.

The “Create Case” button allows you to enter a new support request directly from the community. After the case creation window opens, type your question in the subject line. A list of search results from Aruba Networks’ Online resources (Airheads, Support Center and Corporate Website) will automatically appear. Click on the search results to see if they provide relevant information related to your question. If you are unable to find a suitable answer in these search results, simply complete rest of the required fields and click on “Submit” to enter your support case.

The “View Case” button allows you to view existing support cases under your account. Clicking on this button will take you to either the Support Center or Partner Center (depending on your account entitlement status).

In addition to these new features, you may now submit a support case directly from your community post. A “Create Case” button will appear on the upper right-hand corner of your post if it has not yet received a reply after 48 hours. To forward your post to the support team, simply click on “Create Case”, fill out all of the required fields and click “Submit”.

You need to access Airheads with an entitled email address in order to take advantage of these new support integration features. To change your Airheads email address to an entitled company email address, click on the “Activate Support” button on the right hand column of the community home page.

 

A pop-up screen will appear, asking you to confirm your decision to change your account email address:

We hope you enjoy these new support integrations. Please leave your feedback and questions in the comment section below.

cant find create a case button. Why do you make is soooo hard to get support for your products? We as customers pay good money and sometimes rarely need support.

Hi All, 

Need help. I have 3 AP -->i will use 2 AP for broadcast signal and 1 AP for dedicated Air Monitoring (AM), WIP (for jamming other SSID).

As I know, we will need 3 LIC-RFP, 3 LIC-PEF, 3 LIC-AP  to activate the feature. And not only 1 LIC RFP, can you explain more about this?

is it only the AP as dedicated AM will jamming other SSID or is it all of the AP will jamming other SSID?

 

Thankyou and regards,

Feri

I've got my new case opened at the new HPE page, and I can view it, but I'm not seeing my case history, nor my open cases. Prior post stated that 'Every thing is still in place' but I don't have links to the old system saved anywhere - I've been using the buttons on the Airheads Community page (which aren't in place) 

Jamie, can you get us a set of links for history until the future gets here?

For those like me who probably deleted the email thinking it was spam go here:

Frequently Asked Questions

Nov 18, 2016 09:09 AM

Every thing is still in place, the system changed is all. If your email was tried to a support contact you received instructions on the course of action needed to carry on as usual and view all your cases and access support.

So there is no way to view/edit tickets in the interim?

Nov 18, 2016 07:21 AM

Yeah, we have transitioned to a new support system. Everyone with a support contract was contacted regarding the change. We are in the process of updating the "How to" and it (create a case button) will return once complete.

Has the process changed?

How to assign a VLAN from a list of vlans to users based on their roles? For instance, faculty get assigned ip addresses from a pool while students get assigned from different pool. Also the DHCP is a windows 2012 sever. We use the captive portal to authenticate users; the authentication servers are ldap. We use aruba 7020 controller. Is this possible?

On the home page for the community you can ask a question. This will create a post for you if an accecptable  solution isnt found. You only need to select the board for the post to reside. In this case it will be the wireless access board

Hello

I am running the Aruba3600 on software 6.4.2.12 - everything works fine. I have a windows 200R2 network with clients authenticated by a Windows Server and then assigned an IP by the same Windows DHCP server. My problem is that each time I upgrade to any operating software above 6.4.2.12 at least half my clients start to experience problems receiving an IP address. The moment i roll back to 6.4.2.12 everything is fine again???

 have AP105 on my network,

 

-gateway is 172.31.82.1

 

-dns servers 41.0.1.1

 

 

 

I configured a static ip on one of the aps172.31.82.10 and also configured it as a dhcp server.

 

 

 

I put the distribution on L2 and “other dhcp modes” on local, the clients get the right range of IP addresses but they can not connect back to the servers, they just connect to the AP but I can ping 172.31.82.1

 

 

 

What am I missing in my configurations for the clients and the ap to connect to the servers?

I can't find the "Create Case", "View Case" and  "Download Software" buttons on page. And I got deny in access to "Download Software" page on support.arubanetworks.com. What I doing wrong?

Thanks : D

Mar 25, 2013 02:29 PM

Thank you for your feedback Ryan. I will forward it to our developers.

Mar 25, 2013 09:21 AM

The after-48h-create-case feature is nice, however it only opens the case with the subject equal to the post topic/title. The body of the post is not forwarded into the case automatically. That information (and any attachments) should definitely be included . . .
