Network Provisioning
• Configuration Objects
• Key Information
• Unsupported Configuration Commands
• Managed and Unmanaged Devices
This chapter also explains how to perform a number of tasks in the Network Provision
view. The first set of tasks primarily deal with displaying the configurations in the
system. The following tasks are documented in this first section:
• View Device Configurations
— View a Single Configuration Object
— View Multiple Configuration Objects
— Modify Visible Configuration Options
— Modify View Options
The next set of tasks deal with adding and modifying configuration objects. Here you
would find information about adding a new device configuration or creating a new
configuration object. The following tasks are documented in the section:
• Create and Modify Network Device Configurations
— Add a New Device
— Add a Configuration Object
— Modify a Configuration Object
— Copy a Device or other Object
— Save Changes Without Changing Network Configuration
— Remove Changes (Revert to Server State)
— Change an Unmanaged Device into a Managed Device
The last set of tasks explains how to directly access a device in your network to
manually modify its configuration. Since ISM Provision cannot directly support some
commands, you may need to set some commands manually, either from the command
line or from the web interface. The following tasks are documented in the section:
• Access Extreme Devices Directly
— Use Telnet to access a device
— Use Extreme WebVista to access a device
