Configure Supplemental CLINEW!

To use the supplemental CLI (sCLI) tool, first navigate to Global Settings > VIQ Management, and enable Supplemental CLI.

Use this task to update CLI commands to multiple devices simultaneously from ExtremeCloud IQ. After you save supplemental CLI objects containing CLI commands, you can update the commands for devices automatically, each time you update the network policy.

To avoid an unnecessary system reboot, select Delta Configuration Update. ExtremeCloud IQ attempts to update only the configuration deltas. If a full update is required, the system prompts you to select Complete Configuration Update. Examples of CLI commands that require a full configuration update are: system antenna-type and system environment.

  1. Go to Configure > Common Objects > Basic > Supplemental CLI Objects.
  2. Select existing supplemental CLI objects using the drop-down list next to Re-use Supplemental CLI Settings.
  3. To add a new supplemental CLI object, select Add.
    To edit an existing CLI object, select the corresponding check box and then select .
  4. Type a Name.
  5. Type an optional Description.
  6. Type or paste the CLI commands into the field.
    • Enter multiple CLI commands, one command per line, not exceeding a maximum total of 8192 characters.
    • Use CLI Commands that contain IP and VLAN objects: ${ip:ip_object_name} and ${vlan:vlan_object_name}.
    • Perform a complete configuration update each time commands are appended to device configurations.
    • For Dell EMC switches, enter the CLI commands, enable, and config in the beginning of a sequence of CLI commands.
  7. Select SAVE.
