Extreme NAC and Unify DLS integration

Robert_Zdziebło — Mon, 15 May 2017 14:25:00 GMT

Hello Community 🙂

I have some info from 2013 that there was possible to integrate Extereme's NAC with Unify DLS to ease the management of Unify's VoIP system.
This was done through OneFabric Connect API.

Can you provide some info, if this is still available with latest release of ExtremeManagement suite and newer DLS versions ?
Are there any detailed manuals how to integrate both systems (newer or older) ?

Any info would be appreciated.

REGARDS
Robert

Hi. Unify licensed this feature on their end. Unify stopped selling this license. If you do not have the license then you should stop investigation . I have it working in my lab with version 6. Did not test version 7. It is not part of the Connect install... Regards. Z.

Hi Robert,

unfortunately, there was too little demand for this integration in the past so we decided to drop it.

If you want to "revive" it, I'd suggest to open a feature request.

Thanks
Kurt

OK - thank you

Does it mean that this feature will not be supported by Extreme ? Even with PS-OFCONNECTREMOTE or PS-OFCONNECT-ESU paid service options ?

REGARDS, Robert

that is correct. Do you still have a customer that is using this "old" integration?

I WILL possibly HAVE such a customer and I will need this functionality, as it is a part of system specification. Why do you call it "old" integration ? We still have customers utilising both vendors' equipment - of course, very few of them will need this kind of integration.

It's been developed ~8 years ago and, like I said, not implemented often. If you still need it, please create a feature request for it.
Thanks
