    Posted May 30, 2018 08:26 AM

    hi folks,

     

    what interessts me for a long time now - is it possible to query the exact switch model on the CLI, for example Aruba 2930M 24G Switch = JL319A (= which can be seen for sure via "show running in the first line")?!

     

    greets

    Daniel

    Hey,

     

    Try "show tech buffers".

    Greetings!

     

    A better, saner option would be this command (with example output):

     

    switch# show dhcp client vendor-specific 

Vendor Class Id = Aruba JL258A 2930F-8G-PoE+-2SFP+ Switch
Processing of Vendor Specific Configuration is enabled

    It's a bit non-obvious, but this should get you the info you need.

    Hello,

     

    In Addition to the above commands you can get the required information with command "show modules", This will work on all the moduler switches.

     

    The output will be like below:

     

    SW2# show modules

     Status and Counters - Module Information

      Chassis: 2930M-24G  JL319A         Serial Number:   XXXXXXXXXX


      Slot  Module Description                         Serial Number    Status
      ----- ------------------------------------------ ---------------- ----------


    SW2#
