How does the option "Monitor devices managed by HiveManager Classic" work / how do I configure it?

Hi,

In Hivemanager - pardon me - in ExtremeCloud IQ we now have under Global settings the option to enable "Monitor devices managed by HiveManager Classic".

I have created a new VIQ account, enable this option and provided an existing Classic Cloud account. This seems to work, but then I don't know what to do... I don't see any of the devices, I don't have a link to manage the Classic account.... and I was not able to find any documentation explaining what that feature actually does.

Can someone shed some light into this?

I was hoping that this feature could help me with the process of migrating a Classic Cloud account to a new IQ Cloud account.... or what else is it for??

Thanks a lot Ashley, now I understand what it does 😉

From the manage page > change the view on the right hand side to HM Classic view:

You can see the devices you have in the classic platform, but it's more of a monitor thing than config etc. It just links back to HM Classic effectively.
