Aruba 2530 - Generic Header ID in Configuration File; Add-Ignore-Tag Option; Introduction

between adjacent switches. However, if these events are logged too frequently, they can overwhelm the log buffer
and push relevant logging data out of log memory, making it difficult to troubleshoot another issue.
Logging is disabled and enabled with the support of CLI commands.
This enhancement also includes displaying the Mac-Address in the PVID mismatch log message when the port ID
is Mac-Address instead of displaying garbage characters in the peer device port ID field.
Use the following command to disable the logging of the PVID mismatch log messages:
Syntax:
logging filter [filter-name][sub filter id] <regularexpression> deny
Regular-expression
The regular expression should match the message which is to be filtered.
Syntax:
logging filter [filter-name] enable
Generic header ID in configuration file
Introduction
Auto deployment relies on DHCP options and the current DHCP auto-configuration function. Auto deployment is
platform independent, avoiding the J-number validation of the downloaded configuration file when downloaded
using DHCP option 66/67. The downloaded configuration file has an IGNORE tag immediately after the J-number
in its header.
An option to add an add-ignore-tag to an existing copy command will insert an ignore tag into the
configuration header. This insertion happens while transferring the configurations, (startup configuration
filesand running configuration files) from the switch to a configuration file setup on a remote server.
The process uses TFTP/SFTP or can be accomplished with a serially connected workstation using XMODEM.
Add-Ignore-Tag option
The add-ignore-tag option is used in conjunction with the copy command to transfer the startup
configuration or running configuration files from the switch to a remote server with IGNORE tag
inserted into it.
The IGNORE tag is inserted into the first line of the configuration file directly after the J-number.
