EWC clonning WLAN, Role etc configurations.

[Rahman_Duran1]

Hi,

I need to create more than 10 auth and non auth roles and about 6 more WLAN services. They will be exacly same with one of the existing role and WLAN. I only need to change the topology settings (for different vlans). Unfortunately there is no option for clonning existing configs.

So can I dump the configurations via CLI then copy-edit-paste them for creating the needed roles and WLAN services? If it is possible can you share some code as I never used EWC CLI?

Thanks,

Rahman

Unfortunately this does not work. I can create role via CLI but can not assign topology just after creating it. "Error: unrecognized command "topology-name"."

this is what I paste to CLI

role
create "acu-sehir-unauth"
"acu-sehir-unauth"
topology-name "B@EWC(vlan62)"
filter-status enable
ulfilterap enable
apcustom disable
name "acu-sehir-unauth"
default-cos no-change
access-control contain2vlan
traffic-mirror none

acfilters
create 1 proto any eth 800 mac any interface-ip in dst out src allow priority none tos-dscp none cos none traffic-mirror none
create 2 proto udp eth 800 mac any 0.0.0.0/0 port 68 in dst out src allow priority none tos-dscp none cos none traffic-mirror none
create 3 proto udp eth 800 mac any 0.0.0.0/0 port 53 in dst out src allow priority none tos-dscp none cos none traffic-mirror none
create 4 proto udp eth 800 mac any 0.0.0.0/0 port 67 in dst out src allow priority none tos-dscp none cos none traffic-mirror none

Any idea why it does not work?

Thanks,

Rahman

You can also use Policy manager in ExtremeControl to copy and paste roles/rules/services.

Hello Roy,

Thank you for the example. I will try it. I will also create a feature request about clonning btw.

Hello Rahman,

It it's possible to copy, edit and paste by CLI commands.
You can check current configuration of EWC by "show run-config"
Below is a role part of the result for the command.

role
create "Guest" snmpid 4 1
"Guest"
filter-status enable
ulfilterap enable
apcustom disable
name "Guest"
default-cos no-change
access-control allow
traffic-mirror enable
acfilters

You can edit it as your own purpose and paste it to the CLI prompt.

Please read carefully the link below since misconfiguration could affect your network seriously.
