    hello to all!!

     

    I´m tryng to work with GNS3 and ArubaOS-CX in order to lear how it works! After facing some problems with GNS3 and OS-CX I'm enabled to turn on some switches (virtually on gns3).

    I made a simple conection beetwen them (L2 or/and L3), links looks up and green state beetween  them. 

    from CLI of both switches all ports are up/up... 

     

    but.. there is no connectivity beetween them, no ping and no mac address´s descovery.

     

    maybe there is miss configuration some configuration form vmware or GNS3.

     

    Do you guys was faced this issue?

    The CX simulator has some limitations that are listed in ASP

    (https://afp.arubanetworks.com/afp/index.php/AOS-CX_OVA )

     

    One of these limitations is that the port state is not reflected to the CLI. If you enable a port in CLI, whatever is the GNS3 connectivity, it will always stay up (until you shutdown the interface in CLI).
