Configuration

All OpenL2M configuration has to be performed from an account marked as ‘Admin’. Initially, this will be the admin account created during install.

After login, go to the top right menu under the username, and choose the “Admin” option to get into the Django admin interface.

OpenL2M uses a Profile concept. A profile is a number of configuration settings that are related to each other. Once you have created one or more of the profiles below, they can be applied to devices as needed.

Here is the order in which you should create the configuration items:

• Create SNMP profiles
• Create Credential profiles
• Create VLANs
• Add SNMP devices
• Add Aruba AOS-CX devices
• Add Junos devices
• Create Switch Groups to add device to
• Create Users and give them access to Switch Groups
• Create Commands and Command Lists (optional)
• Create Command Templates (optional)
