AW 8.2.14.1 not showing topology

    Dear Experts, 

    I am using 8.2.14.1 with Aruba 7010 8.9.0.3. Single AP 207 is connected with this controller directly. I can see the devices up in Airwave but cannot see anything in topology view. Is it normal, will i be able to see just the controller and AP? if yes then what extra config might be required?

    You would need the switch that is connected to the controller or the AP to be managed in Airwave.  Topology depends on physical neighbors.

    I have 7010 controller with ap connected directly. Both of them are showing up in airwave. I can see the connected clients also and i can also see visualrf

    But i dnt see any topology. So will there be any topology in my case?

    Do you have LLDP enabled? Can you see the APs in 'show lldp neigbor'?

    Topology also depends on LLDP (or CDP).

    I remember i ran this command and no neighbors were shown. But APs are integrated with controller and shouldnt be shown as neighbors I think

    If i am wrong, do i need to enable something. I checked the profile already, lldp was enabled on controller

    Yes, you will need to enable LLDP Receive and LLDP Transmit on the interfaces (under Advanced on each of your interfaces); as well the APs should be configured to do LLDP as well (in the AP Ethernet Interface Profile).

    If you don't see 'lldp neighbor' on the controller, you will not see topology in AWMP; so first make LLDP work.
