Has Switch Terminal Access (CLI) been removed from XMC?

Christopher_Tay — Fri, 15 Jan 2021 02:48:44 GMT

I have recently upgraded to XMC version 8.5.3.66. When I right click on a switch I no longer see an option for CLI directly from the menu. Has it been removed or moved?

Thank you,

Chris

No, it has not been removed. You might need to adjust your admin-group rights.

Administration → Users → Auth Groups → Edit Group
Under Capabilities → NetSight OneView → Tick “Access Terminal”

Why don’t you read the release notes? 🙂

Access Terminal Capability Added

The Access Terminal capability, in the NetSight OneView list of capabilities, controls your access to opening a terminal session from the device menu.

NOTE: If you are upgrading to Extreme Management Center Version 8.5.3 (and future versions), the Access Terminal capability is enabled by default for new Authorization Groups, but is DISABLED by default for existing Authorization Groups. After upgrading to version 8.5.3, you must review and modify your Administrative Groups and configure them for Access Terminal individually.

Best regards
Stefan

Not related to you problem but be aware of this issue if you are using 8.5.3.66
