Verify Route to TFTP

On both switches, it is required to have a single route to the TFTP server (By default this is 10.92.100.60, but individual configurations may differ).

This is needed because there are issues with Aruba ECMP hashing and TFTP traffic.

(switch#)

show ip route 10.92.100.60

Example output:

Displaying ipv4 routes selected for forwarding

'[x/y]' denotes [distance/metric]

10.92.100.60/32, vrf default, tag 0
    via  10.252.1.9,  [70/0],  bgp
  • This route can be a static route or a BGP route that is pinned to a single worker.
    • CSM 1.4.2 introduced the BGP pinned route.
  • Verify that the next hop of this route is pingable.
    • For the example above, verify that 10.252.1.9 is pingable.
    • If this is not reachable, then this is a problem that must be resolved.
