Cannot add Aruba-Switch: Device with same (but different) IP already exists

Hello everyone,

I am facing an issue when trying to add a specific Aruba switch to my LibreNMS instance. The system is fully up to date. I have already successfully added several switches of this model, but with this particular switch, I always get the error shown in the attached screenshot:

I have already checked whether the device exists somewhere or is possibly hidden, but I cannot find it in the device or network map, so I cannot delete it either. A restart and validation via ./validate.php did not provide any new clues.

Does anyone have an idea how I can still add this device or resolve the issue?
Is there a way to remove the device directly from the database or work around the error in another way?

Thank you very much in advance for your support! :bouquet:

Best regards

SB

.

as per the error
10.20.11.203 ip is present in device 10.30.11.200 configuration.

10.30.11.200 has multiple management IPs ?
please check the 10.30.11.200 configuration, and find out to which interface 10.20.11.203 is assigned

wow, thank you @RR1 ! You are absolutely right.
I haven’t been able to find this error for the past few weeks, and without your help, I wouldn’t have found it in the future either. Thank you so much! :heart:

VLAN 1 did indeed have this incorrect IP address. I don’t know how that happened.

I corrected it on the switch.

Thanks!

I still can’t add the switch, though. Perhaps I need to clean something up in librenms so it forgets what it “learned” incorrectly?:thinking:

Thank you, I wish you a nice day

when the poller attempts to poll/discover the device 10.30.11.200 in next polling cycle
it should clear the entry for ip 10.20.11.203
Then you can try to add 10.20.11.203

@RR1 : your absolutely right.

Wow! Thanks a lot! :heart:
