# Creating ArubaCX Network Integration

## About this task

he network integration requires you to specify the switch information for each rack. The standard deployment model uses two top-of-rack (ToR) switches per rack.

- **Single-Rack Deployments**: You must provide configuration information for at least one switch pair.
- **Multi-Rack Deployments**: You must provide configuration information for the switch pair of each additional rack.

This procedure guides you through creating the network integration for the ArubaCX plugin.

## Procedure

1. Log in to the HPE Morpheus Enterprise Software web interface using your administrator credentials.
2. Navigate to Infrastructure > Network > Integrations.
3. Click the + Add and select HPE Aruba CX Switches.
4. Enter the following details for the network integration:

   - **Name** for the network integration.
   - **Username/Password** for the switches.
   - **Switch pair IP Addresses** for each pair of switches.
5. Click Add Network Integration to create the new integration.

   NOTE

   Before creating networks with this integration, verify that the target bare metal cloud uses the newly created integration as its Network Mode. If the bare metal cloud already exists, you must edit its settings to update the Network Mode to this integration.
