application install

This command makes the application started by the designated executable file available for configuration and execution. The parameters of this command determine how the application is run on the switch.

This command can be issued using an already installed application file name to update the parameters. This updates the configuration for the next time the application is started.

This command can be issued for a file that is not currently on the switch. This allows preconfiguration of the execution parameters. The configuration does not take effect until the executable file is present in the switch file system.

Note

Note

The ExtremeCloud application, connector.pyz, is pre-installed on your 200 Series switch and does not need to be installed using this command.
