How to disable AP225 eth1 port ?

  • 1.  How to disable AP225 eth1 port ?

    Posted Jul 07, 2018 06:04 PM

    Hello everyone,

    Is there a way to disable Eth1 port of the AP225 ?

    I tried to change the Ethernet Interface 1 port configuration to shutdown in the ap group configuration, but the interface remains up.

    Could you guys help me with this case?

    Regards

    Thiago

    The only real way to shut down an AP225 eth1 port is to not plug it in AFAIK.  Making a port "shut" in the configuration closes it off to user traffic, and not infrastructure functions like redundancy.

    Hi

    If it is a demand from the customer to have it connected maybe you can switch it off on the switch side?

    Hello, 

    Thanks for the answers,

    I dont know why, but the customer want to have the 2 ports plugged , but dont want to configure a lacp or shutdown the the port on the switch side.

    I explained to him, if we disable it on the controller side, if the first port failure, the AP will be disconnected from the network and it will not work as a redundancy.

    My doubt is, configuring the shutdown profile in the interface ethernet1 for the ap group will disable this port ? Or this configuration just work for aps like 205h ?

    It will not disable the port for AP redundancy

    I have Aruba Controller 7210 on software version ArubaOS (MODEL: Aruba7210), Version 8.10.0.9 LSR.

    For Security reasons customer wants to disable Aruba AP 655 LAN port 2.

    I configured new AP profile Eth1shutdown and select it in AP group profile. In order to verify when I run command show ap power-mgmt-statistics ap-name AP655 i can see Eth status is enables. Need recommendation why Eth 1 port status showing Enabled and how to forcefully disable LAN port 2 of Aruba AP 655.

    .

    Hi Saud,

    Does the output of show ap port status ap-name <name> for the AP reflect the same? I would double check the port profile is applied correctly by checking the output of show ap wired-port-profile <prof> and show ap-group <group> on the 7210.

    Hi schmelzle

    Thanks for responding.i have attach command output and default AP Group profile screen shot for reference. Appreciate if you can look into it and suggest. 

    it is even more confusing on show ap port status ap-name AP-655-01 output. Command output showing Port 0 is disable which is connected with POE switch and working and Port 1 is enable which I forcefully disable.

    Restore the default settings on the default profile to clear up the display issue on eth0.

    Assign an enabled wired-ap-profile to your Eth1shutdown wired-port-profile. You should then see admin disabled in the output of show ap port status.
