Hi,
I've been finding information here and there on how to create a Mesh Bridge with Aruba AP's but I can't seem to find the fully functionnal solution. My goal is to connect our main building to our residence area for redundancy purposes. Currently, we have a failing fiber link and we are afraid it will go at any time. I want to setup the bridge so that we can get the fiber link repaired.(2 strands out of 12 are still functionnal).
So the bridge itself is up. I can ping the remote AP(on the residence building), but I need to pass 5 other vlans as a trunk but it simply doesn't work. Since I do have a fiber link, I do need Spanning Tree to be functionnal during the transition. Not sure what I am doing wrong. I see some posts talking about the AAA profile needing to be Authenticated, others talk about the System AP Profile, and then in the Aruba documentation, it simply states to activate the Wired AP Profile and choose bridging as a forwarding mode.
Is there any clear configuration that can be found somewhere so that I may complete this installation? If you have any more specific details you need, I will gladly answer.
Thanks for the help,
Ben
