When deploying a new Aruba CX 8325 switch to provide gateway and routing services, the L3-apg profile (Layer 3 Aggregation Profile) should be selected instead of the factory default. This profile is designed for switches acting as aggregation or core routers, enabling Layer 3 routing capabilities and optimized configurations for such roles.
The Spine profile (factory default) is optimized for leaf/spine architectures, but may not be ideal for aggregation gateways.
Leaf and L3-core profiles are targeted for different roles.
Using the L3-apg profile helps to ensure the switch is correctly optimized for Layer 3 gateway functions.
