Device Details Configuration Tasks
ExtremeCloud IQ enables you to perform device-level configuration tasks and update your
devices at the device level. Settings made at this level () apply only to the individual device and override the template settings
configured for the network policy. After device-level settings are removed, the device
automatically reverts back to the original network policy and device template
configuration. The features that display for this tab vary depending on the type of
device you selected.
After you select a switch from the Device List, you can create or modify the
following:
- Device
Configuration: Edit device details such as the host name, the
description, the device function, IP addresses, and VLAN assignments.
- Device
Management Servers: Edit management server settings for a device
associated with a network policy.
- Port
Configuration: Edit port types, STP, Storm, and PSE settings.
- Device
Credentials: Assign or change network administrator credentials and
administrator assignments.
- SSH:
Temporarily enable SSH in order to troubleshoot the device.
- Web SSH (For Digital Twin only): Temporarily enables you
to SSH a console into the Digital Twin switch directly in the GUI, without the
need for a third-party SSH terminal application.
- sFlow
Receivers: (SR Series only): Provide visibility into your switch
traffic patterns.
After you select an AP from the Device List, you can create or modify the following:
- Device
Configuration: Edit device details such as the host name, the
description, the device function, IP addresses, and VLAN assignments.
- Interface Settings: View the default template settings
and control actions for the Wireless (WiFi) and Wired
(Ethernet) ports. You can edit any field that is not grayed out.
- Device
Credentials: Assign or change network administrator credentials and
administrator assignments, and configure CAPWAP and Shared Key settings.
- Configure Netdump: Enable an unresponsive AP to
automatically save a core dump file to a TFTP server on the network the next
time it boots.
- DHCP Server
and Relay: For a small network, configure and enable a DHCP server on
a device to provide network settings dynamically to clients.
- Neighboring
Devices: Define a list of neighbor access points that will
collaborate in the Layer 3 roam process.
- Bonjour
Gateway Settings: Choose the AP you want to act as your Bonjour
Gateway Designated Device (BDD) at the device level.
- Troubleshoot: Enable Client Monitor so devices can detect
client issues, and report client connection activities and problems to
ExtremeCloud IQ.
- SSH:
Temporarily enable SSH in order to troubleshoot the device.
After you make changes to the configuration, you need to push the
configuration changes to the device.
