Unbox, install and configure an Aruba AOS-CX 6100 switch

- This video shows you the unboxing activities of an Aruba 6100 switch (what's in the box), the physical installation (connecting the switch to the network and get console access), configuring the switch for remote access (SSH, HTTPS and REST), and actually testing access. Notice that I am using a DAC cable to connect up the switch. At the moment of release, the 6100 does not support DAC cables and in the video you will see how to get around this.

This helped me out considerably. I really appreciate this as it boasted my confidence.
Thanks for the upload :)
thanks for sharing ,highly appriciated
Configuring port security on the CX 6000 series is more difficult than on the 2530s. Wish the port security and show port security commands are somewhat the same or similar.
Beste Dik, mooi om te zien dat de eerste review waar ik op zoek bij een nederlander uit kom. na installaties van 3910 / 2620 en 2540 moet ik nu overstappen naar een 6100. DE meeste commando's lijken hetzelfde als op de vorige gen switches. Zie jij nog veel verschillen behalve dat je nog api's kan laden ?
Thank you so much
How do i configure the default-gateway?? You made ping to the default-gateway but you didn't configure
Good morning, how do I add the gateway to the default vlan?
Thanks
Hello, good video, I have a problem with an aruba 2930f switch, the user changed the administrative password and forgot it, then he has reset the configuration and the user and configuration are not deleted, is there a method to leave it in the factory settings, Thanks for the help
Hello! I have an HPE Aruba 6000 12G switch that I bought a few days ago. I have connected it to the computer with a usb-c cable and an ethernet cable. I have been able to connect to the switch with Putty, but when I try to log in, it doesn't work. I haven't been able to find the correct default username and password anywhere to log in. I should be able to enable WebGui and change the password and username. Could you help me? Do you know about the default username and password? Your username seems to be admin and I've tried entering it, and then I'm asked for a password that I don't know. You seem to get an option to create your own admin password right after entering your username, and I don't get this. I don't know what is causing this problem. I have a 12 port model of this switch.Thanks!
Hi May I ask what is the default uplink port for these switch? is it the last port ?
There is no default, any port can be an uplink port, though you would most likely use one of the SFP+ ports for the speed and flexibility it offers.
i try command line : test cable ... i think not have command . i use aruba JL677A 6100 24G CL4 4SFP+
Hi，does switch box have a power cable ? or Purchased separately
A power cable is included with the order of the switch, just the exact type for your country needs to be specified during the order.
Nice
how does this compare feature wise to an instant on 1930 /1960 series?
Feature wise it offers a lot more on the software side, but the cx switches are more complex to me than the older Provision based stuff like the 2530, 2540, 2930 etc.
what app did you use for the USB C?
try Putty :D
What's the number part for the cable console?
I don't think there is a part number for the console cable. The console connector on the CX 6100 switch is standard USB-C, so any USB-A to USB-C (if your computer has a USB-A port), or USB-C to USB-C (if your computer has a USB-C port) should work, as long is it is a data cable. At least for USB-A, I know there are really cheap cables that only allow charging, not data, but have not seen them for USB-C. Best to get a 'data' cable, and leave 'charging' cable.
what app did you use to connect using USB C? I tried using putty but didn't work.
Link speed 115200?
With Windows every new Switch would be found with a new comXX device, look at the device manager, which one is acutal. Rumors, that there's a driver which prevents this.
Sw 6100 support DHCP server?
Good Morning! As this terminal was opened, I can't open the terminal, I used PUTZ but I can't point to the USB port.
someone know me help.
Putty is useable you need to select serial and change the COM to the one your port reports in Device Manager. Then a baud rate of 115200 needs to be set in the speed once the console opens wait a few and hit enter around 3 times an the first text line should load in.
try using a terminal emulator find the usb port that is associated to the com port
@@kylecameron9606 this way is helping me. Thanks a lot
is 'menu' still working in cli? This works like magic and is still available on the 2530. How about CX 6000?
This "menu" is a legacy cli menu that they abandoned and stopped developing a long time ago. It was just not removed from the software. It didn't offer the full device capabilities you could use/configure and had a few limitations that were not fixed. So you won't see it on any CX switches as they use completely different software. You may find it only on older "traditional aruba" switches once called procurve or provision.
@@user-hm3ym7lq7g bullshit
That was the best feature in the Procurve switches and they should bring it back
@@darkalman ikr, ive configured loads of switches and everytime i used the "menu" command so i could give it an IP and then access the lovely GUI through a browser.
Just had to teach myself the command line way and its horrible.
@@Bubbstar The menu doesn't have all the features, but it allowed us to configure the IP, routing, SNMP, and VLANs very quickly and efficiently and that's all that mattered.
The change in the CLI environment was a very unwelcome surprise for me when I got out 1st cx6100. I wanted a 2540 but Aruba had stopped selling them. The cx6100 hardware wise is a direct successor but software wise 😵💫😵💫
Can i use ip to login the sw? But I couldn't find the default ip
You will need to assign static IP to the switch
Everybody jumps past vlans. Aruba HP never get this right. If you add a VLAN, then try to add ports, you can't easily add all ports. Not since PROCURVE era have they had this working. YOu have to use CLI.
Tell me about it. On my 2540 and 5400 core switch, easy as pie. On the 6100, had to get vendor support as I had no idea what I was doing! The whole 1/1/1 naming scheme is stupid clunky on a non modular switch and makes the CLI painful to use in my view. The modern CLI seems designed for dev-ops and cloud controller etc and less for mid-level IT administrators to deploy!
Whats the default password to log in?
The default password is blank. Just press Enter.
