Inability to ping Aruba WLC from a directly connected QFX5120-32C via a trunk port.
- Initially the mac was correctly learned on both sides, however, no ARP entry on either side was present.
- Setting a static ARP on both sides and they were still unable to communicate.
Aruba has a way for setting vlans on ports as 'trusted' and 'untrusted'. Issue resolved after configuring the passing vlans as trusted.
Refer to this link for further configuration instructions on the Aruba:
