Table 12: DevCLI command options
Option Value
-a Device IP address. This option can be specified more than once.
-b SNMP version 3 user name.
-d Device password.
-f Input file name for IP addresses. This specifies an ascii file that contains a list of IP
addresses, one per line. No other information can be included in this file.
This option can be specified more than once.
-i Device poll interval, in minutes
-j SNMP version 3 privacy password
-l (Letter l) User name to use for device login
-n Ridgeline server port number
-o SNMP version 3 authentication password
-p Ridgeline user password
-r Read community string (only needed for adding devices; not needed for deleting them).
-s Ridgeline server hostname or IP address
-t SNMP version 3 authentication protocol (none, MD5, SNA)
-u Ridgeline user name
-v SNMP version (1, 3)
-w Write community string (only needed for adding devices; not needed for deleting them).
-x Modify device setting (ssh, nussh, offline, online)
-y SNMP version 3 privacy protocol (none, crc)
-z Record filename (for recording)
Options such as the user login names and passwords and community strings, apply to all devices
specified in the command. You can specify multiple devices in one command as long as they use the
same options. If you have devices with different access parameters, you must add or delete them in
separate commands. The exception is when removing devices, you do not need to specify community
strings, so you can remove multiple devices in a single command even it their community strings are
different.
Most options default to the values equivalent to those used by default on Extreme Networks devices or
in the Ridgeline software.
You can specify only one Ridgeline server (database) in a command. If you want to add the same
devices to multiple Ridgeline databases, you must use a separate command for each server. The
command by default adds or removes devices from the Ridgeline database running on the local host at
port 80.
