Where the Issue May Occur During Install

During initial network discovery of Nodes, SNMP may not accurately report MAC-address from Aruba Leaf/Spine switches. This will lead to a situation where not all connected devices are discovered as expected. Further troubleshooting would show that the SNMP walk output would not match ‘show mac-address-table’ command output from the switch.

Symptom/Scenario

The SNMP walk output of OID BRIDGE-MIB::dot1dTpFdbAddress returns fewer MAC addresses than the show mac-address-table command.

Workaround

Delete the SNMP configuration from the affected switch and reconfigure the SNMP server. Refer to the “SNMP configuration” section of the Configure Aruba Leaf Switch procedure for more information.
