Figure 94: The Telnet Macro Play view with script
To create a macro for playback to a set of Extreme switches, follow these steps:
1 In the Telnet Connections list, select the switch or set of switches where you want your command
macro to run. The switches need not have a Telnet session already open—the macro play function
will open a connection and log into the switch.
The columns in the Telnet Connections table provide the following information:
Name
The name of the device.
Address
The IP address of the device.
Macro Status
The status of the last macro executed on the device. The status can be one of:
• Pending: The macro is intended to run on this switch, but has not yet started. This macro
is used only used when playing macros repeatedly.
• Playing: The macro is currently running
• Stopped: The macro was stopped before it completed.
• Complete: The macro has completed running.
• Macros Not Supported: Macros cannot be run on this device (may appear if you select a
non-Extreme device or the Summit Px1 or Summit 24e2T/X devices).
• Failed: A failure occurred when the macro was run. This is frequently due to an inability
to connect to the switch.
2 Enter a series of ExtremeWare CLI commands into the macro buffer.
