CLI Configuration

The Command Line Interface (CLI) for devices is a powerful tool that gives you direct access to APs and switches. The CLI commands can be used to configure and control how devices interface with your network.

Extreme AirDefense uses the CLI to construct device profiles that can be used to control and manage devices in your network. You can push the CLI profiles out to devices in your network that ensure all devices in your network conform to your company policies.

Extreme AirDefense creates and updates device configurations by revising the configuration files and their CLI command set. CLI profiles are created using configuration templates that you can use as is or change to meet the configuration requirements of your devices. Once a profile is created, you can apply it to any or all of the devices in your network. Devices are typically s and switches. The following devices are currently supported:
