Dependencies

  • Aruba Central API
  • An OAuth2 API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the MAC address is correctly formatted and valid; invalid MAC addresses will cause errors.
  • Verify that the OAuth2 credentials are correctly configured and have the necessary permissions to access the monitoring domain.
  • If the node fails with an API error, check network connectivity and Aruba Central service status.
  • Enable 'continueOnFail' to allow workflow continuation despite errors, which will output the error message in the JSON output.
