2530 Aruba switch port fail over

  • 1.  2530 Aruba switch port fail over

    Posted Nov 14, 2019 02:40 AM

    Hi,

    I have 2530 switches connected between our two offices where the distance is about 200 metres, currently we are using fiber cable as uplink between this two offices, this is the only single point of failure.

    Hence we have decided to use wireless point to point connection as backup for fiber, the challenge i am facing here i can't connect both fiber and wireless uplink cable in same 2530 switch, it is creating loop sometimes in the network and causing network disconnection.

    Is there a way to configure port/Link failover in both switches...for ex : when fiber port uplink goes down the wirless P2P port should be able to

    send packets to gateway or destination.

     Also we have configured 3 vlans and tagged on the intrefaces

    tagged vlan IDs

    Vlan -2,3&4 on interface 10-24

    Untagged vlan Id is Vlan-1 on interface 10-24 

    Uplink interface in Port-24.

     

    Thanks in advance.

    have you looked at configuring spanning-tree or loop protection?
