Identify and download the essential software to emulate ArubaOS CX labs, including verifying 64-bit support and obtaining GNS3, the GNS3 VM, VMware Workstation Pro, and ArubaOS from Aruba networks.
Install VMware Workstation Pro, import the GNS3 VM, and configure the GNS3 emulator to run ArubaOS CX labs, adjusting RAM and licensing as needed.
Learn how to install and import ArubaOS CX into GNS3, set up a virtual lab, and verify operation by launching a router and checking interfaces.
Connect two ArubaOS CX routers in a GNS3 lab to verify connectivity, configure interfaces with IP addresses, and confirm neighbor relationships and basic emulated network operations.
Explore the network training site to access Cisco, Juniper, MicroTech, Ubiquity, and Aruba courses with bundles, pricing, consultancy options, and contact details.
Aruba Networks is becoming very popular day after day. A lot of companies and network engineers are using Aruba products in their network.
You, as a network engineer, if you want to run an Aruba LAB you require to buy real equipment - This costs a lot of money. Instead, you can use GNS3 emulator software with ArubaOS CX to emulate Aruba Routers/Switches and YES it is free of charge.
In this course, I will show you all steps that you require in order to have ArubaOS running on GNS3 so you can create virtual Aruba Routers/Switches and test any scenario that you wish to test. This would work exactly as you are using real Aruba equipment :)
I will show you what are the softwares that you require to download, then I will show you how to install them and how to import GNS3 VM into GNS3 software, then I will show you how to install ArubaOS on GNS3. When doing that, I will run a LAB and will connect 2 Aruba L3 Switches to each other and try to see if they can see each other.
This is the whole thing that I will do in this course, I hope you will join me so at the end you can run an Aruba emulation on your PC.
