Hello,
We have wireless users in a test SSID which intermittently lose connectivity with a specific wired server in the same VLAN. While a wireless user lose connectivity to a single wired server, it keeps on communicating with other wired servers in the same VLAN. Hence it doesn't seem like wireless congestion or interference.
We are runing an older version of Aruba OS 2.3. From the captures take till now it is confirmed that reply from the server gets to the controller but is never forwarded to wireless client. After sometime the communication recovers automatically.
It seems that there is some setting in Aruba OS 2.3 which:
1. decides the maximum number of connections from an IP. And if that number reaches limit it blocks all communication from that IP. Once number of connections comes down the communication again starts.
2. There is some firewall/IDS policy which is rejecting the traffic from an IP after seeing something suspicious from the IP. And the allows it after some pre-defined interval.
From the command I am not able to find any suitable debug or anything alarming in the logs which can provide more information on what is causing Aruba to intermittently drop the conversation.
Any assistance is highly appreciated.
Thank you.
