Overview
This node interacts with the Aruba Central Next Gen API to list VLANs configured on a specific Gateway device. It is useful for network administrators who want to retrieve detailed VLAN information from their managed gateways within Aruba Central, enabling them to monitor and manage network segmentation effectively.
Typical use cases include:
- Auditing VLAN configurations on gateways.
- Integrating VLAN data into broader network monitoring or reporting workflows.
- Automating network configuration validation by comparing expected VLAN setups.
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 | The serial number of the Gateway device for which VLANs are being listed. |
Output
The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the VLANs associated with the specified Gateway. Each object typically contains details about a VLAN such as its ID, name, status, and other relevant VLAN attributes as provided by the Aruba Central API.
If binary data were involved (not indicated here), it would represent related files or attachments, but this node focuses on JSON data output.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to Aruba Central Next Gen API via an API key credential (OAuth2 or similar).
- The node depends on proper configuration of the API domain ("monitoring" or "configuration") and valid Gateway serial number.
- No additional external dependencies beyond the Aruba Central API and n8n's standard environment.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Gateway serial number will cause the API call to fail.
- Incorrect domain selection may lead to unexpected results or errors if the operation is not supported under that domain.
- Network connectivity or authentication failures with Aruba Central API.
Error messages:
- Errors during execution will be logged with descriptive messages if Debug Mode is enabled.
- Typical error: "Unknown error in node execution" indicates an unhandled exception; enabling Debug Mode can provide more insight.
- Authentication errors suggest checking API credentials and permissions.
Resolution tips:
- Verify the Gateway serial number is correct and exists in Aruba Central.
- Ensure the selected domain matches the intended API scope.
- Enable Debug Mode to get detailed logs for troubleshooting.
- Confirm API credentials are valid and have necessary permissions.
