Wireless Controller, Service Platform and Access Point CLI Reference Guide

Global Configuration Commands

Creates a Purview Application Group and enters its configuration mode. A Purview application group is a collection of system-provided and/or user-defined application definitions. Application group allows you to enforce mandatory stats reporting for specific traffic types.

Extreme Network's AP5xx model APs, running WiNG 7.1.2 and later versions of the WiNG 7 OS, use Extreme Application Analytics (Purview™) libDPI engine to implement Application Visibility and Control (AVC) within a managed network. libDPI detects top-level hosting applications along with the services these applications host.

Use AVC to implement:

Packet filtering - allow, deny, mark, or rate-limit packets based on rules defined in the Purview application policy.
Mandatory stats reporting - enable mandatory stats reporting for an application or set of applications defined in the Purview application group. See Enabling Mandatory Stats Reporting.

Supported in the following platforms:

Access Points — AP410i/e, AP460i/e, AP505i, AP510i/e, AP560i/h

Note

Legacy WiNG devices, running WiNG 5.9.X or WiNG 7.2.1 do not support Purview libDPI engine. Legacy WiNG devices use a third-party, DPI engine to enforce AVC within the managed network. For more information on configuring AVC on legacy devices, see application-policy and application-group.

These legacy devices are: AP7522, AP7532, AP7562, AP7612, AP7632, AP7662, AP8432, AP8533, NX500, NX7500, NX9500, NX9600 and VX9000.

Parameters

purview-application-group <PURVIEW-APP-GROUP-NAME>


purview-application-group <PURVIEW-APP-GROUP-NAME>	Creates a Purview application group and enters its configuration mode <PURVIEW-APP-GROUP-NAME – Specify the application group name. If a Purview application group with the specified name does not exist, it is created. The name should not exceed 32 characters in length.

Enabling Mandatory Stats Reporting

The purview-application-group command is part of the mandatory stats reporting feature. To enable mandatory stats reporting, follow the steps below:

Create a Purview application group, specify the applications for which mandatory stats reporting is to be enabled.
Note
If the required application definition is not system-provided, create a custom application signature. For information on creating custom application signatures, see application
Enforce mandatory stats reporting for this Purview application group in the NSight policy.
Note
For more information and examples, see the mandatory command in the NSight policy context.
Apply the NSight policy in the RF Domain context.
Note
For more information, see use (rf-domain-config-mode).
