1. If your previous cURL session has closed or timed out, re–enter the authentication command
to obtain a new token:
curl -sk -H 'Content-Type:application/json'-d
'{"login":{"user":"MyUser","password":"MyPassword","domain":"sdn"}}'
https://MyControllerIP:8443/sdn/v2.0/auth
• Replace MyUser and MyPassword with your actual values.
• Replace MyControllerIP with your controller IP address.
NOTE: If you are installing a High Availability license, enter the IP address
of the lead controller.
