Issue Allowed-vlan auto from HM

sajid_abbas — Mon, 08 Apr 2019 04:27:59 GMT

Hi,

We have a CVG on VM which, from the forum, needs to have promiscuous mode enabled. This has been causing some massive traffic spikes form unwanted network traffic causing high CPU usages as well.

I added the command "interface eth0 allowed-vlan auto" on the CLI. When I pushed a delta config to it from HM it revoked that command, reverting to allowed-vlan all.

Does anyone know how can I configure the command to allow Auto vlan on HM so that any config push does not cause to revert it to all vlan.

Thanks

Sajid

The HiveManager will overwrite manual settings that conflict with the settings it pushes out from the network configuration build. You could try creating a supplemental CLI object for that auto VLAN command so it won't get overwritten with configuration pushes and/or reboots?

Hi Sam,

Thanks for your response.

Are you able to elaborate how I can create that supplemental CLI object for this or any other command for that matter, that can survive policy push and reboots

Thanks

Just for note, we are on HiveManager Classic version 8.2r2.

Of course, and thank you for letting me know which HiveManager platform you are using. This guide will walk through how to create a Supplemental CLI object in Classic: https://thehivecommunity.aerohive.com/s/article/How-to-create-a-Supplemental-CLI-in-HiveManager-Classic

Hi,

So I performed the steps given by enabling the Supplemental CLI option, creating the CLI object and complete push of the policy.

It didn't work as expected.

To test this, it I pushed the following cli command to AP250 which we noticed turn off their LEDs automically.

Config shown in attached capture.

Are these option somewhere in GUI which over writes the CLI config or are they in the wrong format.

Thank you for that screen shot. The reason those commands aren't taking affect is because those settings are already a part of the HiveManager configuration, and if a setting is in the configuration that will overwrite the supplemental CLI command. I would recommend configuring the LED settings via the management options of the network policy (Configure> Open network polic> Go to Additonal Settings> Management Options (left hand side menu under Network Services heading). You can also set the LLDP configuration in the Additional Settings of the network policy (LLDP/CDP on left hand side menu under Network Services heading).

Hi Sam,

Thanks for your response.

I checked these which i wanted to test first if/how CLI supplemental works.

The actual command that i need to implement is "interface eth0 allowed-vlan auto" which we need to implement on our CVG which gets hit with excessive traffic if all vlans are allowed.

Could you please guide us where this feature might be on GUI as everytime we push the policy the CLI command gets over-written even through we have configured supplement for it.

Futher update.

So i found the setting on Access Points but not CVG (where the actual problem lies) where there is no 'Interface and Network Setting'

Access Point

CVG Device Config

In this case the CLI supplement also doesn't work.
