USING TELNET WITH EXTREME SWITCHES
RUNNING EXTREMEWARE COMMAND MACROS
The lower half of the Telnet page contains the macro Record/Play buffer. You can enter
a series of ExtremeWare commands into this buffer, which will form a script that can be
played to the set of switches you select in the Telnet Connections list.

To create a macro for playback to a set of Extreme switches, follow these steps:
1 Select the set of switches in the Telnet Connections list where you want your
command macro to run. The switches do not need to have a telnet session already
open—the macro play function will open a connection and log into the switch.
2 Enter a series of ExtremeWare commands into the Record/Play buffer.
