EPICenter Release Note

NOTE

Third-party device limitations also apply to the Extreme Summit24e2, the SummitPx1, the Summit WM 100/1000

and Summit WM 200/2000 devices, as well as the Sentriant AG and Sentriant NG devices.

Table 5 provides a summary of EPICenter’s basic support for non-Extreme devices.

SSH Support

EPICenter supports the use of SSH for communication with Extreme Networks devices if the following

conditions are met:

● The SSH Enabling Module must be installed on the EPICenter server host. Due to export restrictions,

you must obtain this module from Extreme Networks. It is not included with the EPICenter software

distribution.

● Your switches must be running versions of ExtremeWare or ExtremeXOS that support SSH, and SSH

must be enabled on those devices. Due to export restrictions, a special license is required for the SSH

versions of the switch software. To request SSH-enabled versions of the software, contact Extreme

Networks Technical Support.

More information about obtaining and installing these modules can be found in the EPICenter

Installation and Upgrade Guide. SSH is not supported for third-party devices.

EPICenter Software Licensing

The EPICenter Server requires a license key to be installed before you can use its features.

● A Base license allows you to log into the EPICenter Server and manage up to 250 devices.

A permanent license has no time limit.

● An evaluation license allows you to run all features of the product for 30 days.

You can install the software without a license key, but you will not be able to connect to the Server from

an EPICenter Client until an evaluation license or Base license is installed.
