Overview
This node interacts with Aruba Central Next Gen API to retrieve monitoring data related to Access Points (APs). Specifically, the Get AP Tunnel Latency Trend operation fetches latency trend metrics for a specified tunnel on an access point over a given time range. This is useful for network administrators who want to monitor and analyze the performance and latency characteristics of tunnels between access points and other network elements.
Typical use cases include:
- Monitoring latency trends to detect network degradation or congestion.
- Troubleshooting connectivity issues by analyzing tunnel latency over time.
- Generating reports or dashboards showing historical latency data for specific AP tunnels.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Debug Mode | Whether to enable detailed debug logs for troubleshooting. |
| Domain | API domain to interact with. Options: "Monitoring" (monitor devices, clients, sites), "Configuration" (configure devices, groups, profiles). For this operation, "Monitoring" is used. |
| Serial Number | Access point serial number identifying the specific AP to query. |
| Tunnel ID | Identifier of the tunnel on the access point for which latency trend data is requested. |
| Time Range | Optional collection specifying the start and end times (in ISO 8601 format) for data retrieval. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data containing the latency trend information for the specified AP tunnel within the requested time range. The structure typically includes timestamps and corresponding latency values, allowing visualization or further processing of latency changes over time.
If binary data were involved (not indicated here), it would represent raw or encoded telemetry data, but this operation focuses on JSON metric data.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to Aruba Central Next Gen API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
- The node depends on proper OAuth2 authentication credentials set up in n8n to authorize API requests.
- Network connectivity to Aruba Central services is necessary.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues:
- Invalid or missing serial number or tunnel ID will cause the API call to fail.
- Incorrect time range formats or invalid date values may result in errors or empty responses.
- Network or authentication failures can prevent successful data retrieval.
Error Messages:
- Errors from the API are caught and rethrown as node operation errors with descriptive messages.
- Enabling Debug Mode provides detailed logs that help identify request payloads and API responses.
Resolutions:
- Verify that the serial number and tunnel ID correspond to existing resources in Aruba Central.
- Ensure the time range dates are valid ISO 8601 strings and that the start time precedes the end time.
- Confirm that the API credentials are correctly configured and have sufficient permissions.
- Use Debug Mode to get verbose logging for deeper insight into failures.
