Adding Devices only with SSH to XIQ-SE

Adding Devices only with SSH to XIQ-SE

Hello,

I want to add a Cisco Router to the XIQ-SE. I have on the Cisco Router only SSH available.

Is it possible to add the device only with SSH to XIQ-SE?

I want to use then only the SSH feature. It would be great if the SNMP errors can directly be ignored as this device should have no SNMP connection

You can add a device to SE's inventory as ping only / status only; however NO you will not have management capabilities, including Terminal to be able to SSH to the switch via SE. You must model the device via SNMP for which it is licensed, either Navigator or Pilot, to be able to use the extended management features.

It means Ping only or SNMP must work.

The device only with SSH is not supported.

Could this be a feature request? To have a device only with SSH when the connection is non-secure?

I do not see that being a viable feature request. The licensing model is specifically designed such that the device must be licensed (modeled via SNMP) to be able to use the extended features. A Ping Only device is unlicensed/unmanaged and does not provide for any extended management features.

You can always discuss this concern with your Extreme account team.
