How to onboard extreme fabric 5320 & 5520 switches to cloud IQ after manual configuration via cli. 

I already configured switches and updated to latest firmware via cli but not added to cloud IQ at start.

Now is there any way I can add these devices to cloud but the condition is cloud iq should not push any config changes or firmware updates automatically.

The switches are already in production but still I need to add it to cloud as the licenses are purchased.

Please suggest any option so that I can add them to cloud and manage it manually not automatically.

Hi there, sorry for the delay getting back to you here. As far as I understand XIQ, it'll push a configuration to the device when it connects for the first time. You could copy you manual configuration to a supplemental CLI build that gets pushed out each time the device is updated from XIQ, but as far as I know there is no way to stop XIQ from pushing that update to the device. It has been a few years since I worked XIQ support though, so things may have changed. Hoping someone will chime in here if my info is outdated.
