Aruba CX switch practice lab
This is an HPE Aruba CX CLI, AOS-CX 10.13 style, for a dummy campus core. It is not a real CX switch. The practice set is VLANs, trunks, LACP, VSX, AAA, and show tech style output. show version prints software and platform. show interface brief prints interface status. The other quick commands are listed beside the terminal and can be clicked to run where the page says so.
Read VSX and trunk state before you change a VLAN. The config is a campus core teaching set, so names and VLAN IDs are training choices, not a customer network. show interface brief only tells you the link is up. The trunk and LAG commands tell you whether the VLAN is allowed on that link. Check both. Guest mode needs no switch.
This is not an Aruba certification lab delivery from HPE. It is Techclick command practice. Sign-in is optional.
