Overview
This node interacts with Aruba Central Next Gen API to retrieve detailed information about Access Point (AP) tunnels. Specifically, the "Get AP Tunnel Details" operation fetches data related to a particular tunnel on an access point identified by its serial number and tunnel ID.
Typical use cases include network monitoring and troubleshooting scenarios where administrators need to inspect tunnel-level metrics or configurations for specific access points. For example, it can be used to:
- Diagnose connectivity issues by examining tunnel details.
- Monitor tunnel performance and status in real-time.
- Integrate AP tunnel data into broader network management workflows.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Debug Mode | Whether to enable detailed debug logs for troubleshooting (true/false). |
| Domain | API domain to interact with: - Monitoring: Monitor devices, clients, and sites. - Configuration: Configure devices, groups, and profiles. |
| Serial Number | Access point serial number (string). Required when Domain is "Monitoring" and Resource is "Access Points". |
| Tunnel ID | Tunnel identifier (string). Required when Domain is "Monitoring", Resource is "Access Points", and Operation is "Get AP Tunnel Details". |
Output
The node outputs JSON data containing detailed information about the specified AP tunnel. The exact structure depends on the Aruba Central API response but typically includes fields such as tunnel status, performance metrics, configuration parameters, and possibly error or diagnostic information.
If binary data were involved (not indicated here), it would represent raw data related to the tunnel, but this operation focuses on JSON-formatted monitoring details.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to Aruba Central Next Gen API.
- Needs an API authentication token configured via n8n credentials (an OAuth2 or similar API key credential).
- Network access to Aruba Central endpoints corresponding to the selected domain ("monitoring" or "configuration").
Troubleshooting
Common Issues:
- Invalid or missing serial number or tunnel ID will cause the API call to fail.
- Incorrect domain selection may lead to unsupported operations or empty responses.
- Network connectivity problems or expired API tokens will result in authentication errors.
Error Messages:
"Unknown error in node execution": Generic catch-all; check API credentials and network.- API-specific errors returned from Aruba Central will be surfaced; ensure that the serial number and tunnel ID exist and are correct.
- Enable "Debug Mode" property to get detailed logs which help identify request payloads and responses.
