Star, Mesh, Hybrid Topologies



Star, Mesh, Hybrid Topologies

Simply star, mesh and hybrid topologies describe how devices plug into each other. In your office how your switchers are connect to each other.


Mesh topologies


In this topology we can reduce latency and also we have redundancy inside our network. When you have full mesh you have ultimate number of options to reach to location. But in this topology you have to care about cost.



Hybrid topologies

In this topology every this connect to every thing in the network. You have high level redundancy. But switchers do broadcasting between the networks when it happen broadcast massage flow through the network. So prevent that introduce STP (Spanning Tree Protocol – we’ll discussed it in future.) temporally stop one redundant link. In this topology network automatically become a complex one

Star Topology


This topology is cost effective. If some device doesn’t need to talk to someone in the network this topology is the best. In this switch do all the distribution process.

Check Aruba ClearPass Serial Number

  CHECK ARUBA CLEARPASS SERIAL NUMBER Today we are Going to learn how to check the serial number of a Aruba Clearpass this is useful because you need this to submit license and also if you raise a support ticket they ask the serial number of your CPPM. below i mention the steps  1. log into your ClearPass appliance using WebUI 2. In the Dashboard click on OS version of Clearpass 3. in the Dialog box you can find the serial number  Thanks!!!! Lets meet with another blog        

ARUBA MULTIZONE

  ARUBA MULTIZONE Aruba Mutizone is the feature that we can use to isolate Guest user traffic from Corporate Network, But this Feature is not only for Guest Network. To use Multizone Feature in Aruba Controller you need Mobility Master based solution.  Key Points in Multizone Multizone gives you separate Management and data Traffic Zones  Primary Zone is the AP connecting Zone when the AP Initial Boot up and also PZ have the Full Control of the AP ( WLAN,RF, etc) MultiZone AP can belong to only one PZ and it can support up to 4 DZ  Maximum 12 Controller for all Zones Maximum 16 VAP per radio for all Zones  Multizone required RFP license  DZ AP Group should be same as PZ ap group Multizone AP Function Flow  CPSec is Highly recommend to enable previous version of  Aruba Controllers does not support Auto-cert provision Feature but now a days Aruba firmware support this so you do not need to manually provision the AP Data Zone does not Required a...

Mobility Master Redundancy - Part 1

  Mobility Master Redundancy - Part 1 Mobility Master will be the Main component that can manage Multiple controllers together. The redundancy of the mobility master should be highly considered when it is coming to enterprise wireless networks. Today we are going to see how we can configure the redundancy between mobility Masters Configuring VRRP Those are the main steps that need to follow the configure the VRRP you have to do the same configuration in the other Mobility Master also Some valuable commands to do the troubleshooting the VRRP mention below Show VRRP summary This command will show you how many VRRP instances are configured in the mobility Master Show VRRP This will show the status of the vrrp instances and summary details of the vrrp like IP, MAC, State, Priority etc Show VRRP stats all This will provide the status details of the VRRP  In the Next Part Lets check What kind of Issues normally happen when we are configuring Mobility Master and How to troubleshoot t...
