Inside a configuration plan, right-click any device-specific parameters and modify the parameter perdevice is what you should do if you want to use NetEdit to manage ArubaOS-CX switches and deploy a standard config to the switches, but need the config to include a few device-specific settings such as hostname and IP address. This approach allows you to edit any parameter value for individual devices within a configuration plan without affecting other devices or creating separate plans1.

Switch-2 waits a period called the link-up delay before it enables Switched Virtual Interfaces (SVIs) on its VSX LAGs is a true statement about what happens when Switch-2 experiences a power failure while Switch-1 remains up and then recovers. Switch-1 and Switch-2 are ArubaOS-CX switches, which are part of a Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) fabric. VSX is a feature that provides active-active forwarding and redundancy for ArubaOS-CX switches. The link-up delay timer defines how long a VSX node waits before advertising link state changes to its peer node. This allows the node to synchronize its MAC forwarding, ARP, and routing tables with its peer node before sending or receiving traffic on the newly activated link1.

Data center networks are typically less oversubscribed than campus networks is a difference between a typical data center network's requirements and a typical campus network's requirements. Oversubscription is the ratio of potential maximum demand to available capacity on a network link or device. Data center networks typically have higher bandwidth and lower latency requirements than campus networks, so they need to minimize oversubscription as much as possible1.

Automated provisioning of LAGs between AHV and VSX is an operation supported when Aruba Fabric Composer (AFC) is integrated with Nutanix. AFC is a tool that provides automation and orchestration for managing data center networks composed of ArubaOS-CX switches. AFC can integrate with various data center software such as VMware vSphere, Nutanix AHV, Microsoft Hyper-V, etc. AFC can discover, monitor, and configure Nutanix AHV clusters and hosts using REST APIs. AFC can also automate the provisioning of LAGs between AHV and VSX by creating VSX LAGs or MC-LAGs on the ArubaOS-CX switches and configuring the corresponding LAGs on the AHV hosts1.

Automated configuration of Layer 3 MP-BGP protocol on leaf switches is not an operation supported when Aruba Fabric Composer (AFC) is integrated with Nutanix. AFC is a tool that provides automation and orchestration for managing data center networks composed of ArubaOS-CX switches. AFC can integrate with various data center software such as VMware vSphere, Nutanix AHV, Microsoft Hyper-V, etc. AFC can discover, monitor, and configure Nutanix AHV clusters and hosts using REST APIs. However, AFC does not support the configuration of Layer 3 MP-BGP protocol on leaf switches, which is required for EVPN VXLAN networks. AFC only supports the configuration of Layer 2 VXLAN networks without EVPN1.

It collects information about the switch hardware is something that NetEdit 2.0 does after it discovers a switch. NetEdit 2.0 is a tool that provides configuration management and validation for ArubaOS-CX and ArubaOS-Switch devices. NetEdit 2.0 can discover switches using various methods such as IP range scan, LLDP scan, CSV import, etc. After NetEdit 2.0 discovers a switch, it collects information about the switch hardware such as model number, serial number, MAC address, firmware version, etc1.

It enables the switch REST API interface, if disabled is not something that NetEdit 2.0 does after it discovers a switch. NetEdit 2.0 is a tool that provides configuration management and validation for ArubaOS-CX and ArubaOS-Switch devices. NetEdit 2.0 can discover switches using various methods such as IP range scan, LLDP scan, CSV import, etc. However, NetEdit 2.0 cannot discover or communicate with switches that have their REST API interface disabled because NetEdit 2.0 relies on REST API calls to interact with switches1.

You are not concerned about split brain issues in your environment, so you want the secondary member to keep its links up if the ISL fails is a use case for disabling split-recovery mode on ArubaOSCX switches in a Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) fabric. VSX is a feature that provides active-active forwarding and redundancy for ArubaOS-CX switches. The ISL is the inter-switch link that connects two VSX nodes and carries data traffic. The split-recovery mode is a feature that prevents split-brain scenarios when both VSX nodes lose connectivity with each other but remain up. When splitrecovery mode is disabled, if the ISL fails but both VSX nodes remain up,

Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) is a high-availability technology that allows two ArubaOS-CX switches to operate as a single logical device. Split-recovery mode is a feature that prevents traffic loss when the Inter-Switch Link (ISL) goes out-of-sync and keepalive subsequently fails. When splitrecovery mode is enabled, the secondary VSX member disables its downstream links until it synchronizes with the primary member. When split-recovery mode is disabled, the secondary VSX member keeps its downstream links up even when it is out-of-sync with the primary member1. Disabling split-recovery mode does not affect how the primary switch takes over again as the primary switch after a failure and reboot. The primary switch always takes over as the primary switch when it comes back online, regardless of the split-recovery mode setting. Therefore, this is not a use case for disabling split-recovery mode on ArubaOS-CX switches in a VSX fabric.
