Network Wizard Overview

Network Wizard is the workflow to set up an underlay network. To establish an underlay network, Aruba Central On-Premises automates the L3 and OSPF Open Shortest Path First. OSPF is a link-state routing protocol for IP networks. It uses a link-state routing algorithm and falls into the group of interior routing protocols that operates within a single Autonomous System (AS). switching connectivity by auto-assigning the loopback IP address, ROP links, and creating the Aruba Virtual switching Extension.

Prerequisites

To complete the provisioning of underlay network using Aruba Central On-Premises, complete the following

• All Aruba CX switches must be running AOS-CX 10.10.1020 or later.

• Move all devices and switches that are on-boarded in Aruba Central On-Premises into the same UI User Interface. group.

• All the physical cabling between the switches needs to be setup and running.

• LLDP Link Layer Discovery Protocol. LLDP is a vendor-neutral link layer protocol in the Internet Protocol suite used by network devices for advertising their identity, capabilities, and neighbors on an IEEE 802 local area network, which is principally a wired Ethernet. must be enabled on all devices and ports.

• Ensure all the previously existing underlay network configurations are removed from the switches.
