Setting up Airwave

  • 1.  Setting up Airwave

    Posted Dec 13, 2017 10:43 AM

    We've recently purchased Airwave licenses (Aruba AirWave 1 Device Lic E-LTU) and have setup an Airwave Server. I am able to get to the WebUI but it doesn't appear I am able to do anything without licenses being present. When I go to the HPE site to redeem those licenses it's asking for a server IP. I was sort of handed this project mid development so I am a little a lost in terms of documentation. Does the AMP require a public facing IP in order for the licenses to be redeemed? I am currently unable to do anything with the web portal.

     

    Thanks for any insight on the matter!

    The permanent license key requires an IP address.  This is usually mapped to the eth0 interface.  So if you can login to the CLI, you can double check.

     

    For AMP 8.2.3 and prior

    # ifconfig eth0

     

    For AMP 8.2.4 and newer

    Option 8 (advanced)

    Option 3 (configure network settings)

    And then 0 to exit w/o making any changes

     

    Once you have the IP, you can just submit it to support to get the permanent key.

    Are there temporary licenses that we receive in order to get the server off the ground? I see you mentioned permenant licenses. In order to get the permanent licenses I have to have a public facing IP or do I use the private IP that we assigned to the server interface?

     

    Thanks again for the clarification

    The private ip address that you configured on the Airwvave server is what you will need for a permanent license.

    In the future, support should be able to spin a 30-day eval key for you to get the setup going prior to swapping to the permanent license key.  It gives you some flexibility.  This is also the strategy used when migrating to a new server where you get an eval key to stage the new server prior to migration.
