To use the supplemental CLI tool, go to Global Settings > VIQ
Management, and enable Supplemental CLI.
You can save supplemental CLI objects containing CLI commands, and ExtremeCloud IQ can then
automatically update them for devices, each time you update the network policy.
Note
- Limit CLI commands to
configuration commands. Exclude Show or
other commands used to display information.
- Do not use supplemental
CLI commands to configure any settings set via the ExtremeCloud IQ GUI as that creates a configuration sync conflict that results in
future Device
Update Failed errors.
- These commands work as a
delta mechanism. Every new supplemental CLI update must only include new
commands that you want to run, not ALL commands that you want to have
present on the device at start up. Re-running some commands after
already applied can cause future Device Update
Failed errors.
Use the following task to create CLI objects.
-
Go to .
-
To add a new supplemental CLI
object, select
-
Type a Name.
-
Type an optional Description.
-
Type the CLI commands.
- Enter multiple CLI
commands, one command per line.
- Use CLI Commands that
contain IP and VLAN objects: ${ip:ip_object_name} and ${vlan:vlan_object_name}.
-
Select SAVE and perform
a configuration update each time you append commands to device
configurations.
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.
