Supported Devices

Switches Tested

The following devices are supported by OpenL2M. While an attempt has been made to verify all functionality, we strongly encourage you to test your devices before using them “in production” with OpenL2M.

For SNMP supported device, an attempt has been made to make OpenL2M adhere to ‘standard’ SNMP. However, we recognize there is no such thing as completely ‘standard’ SNMP.

We have tested OpenL2M on the following hardware, with the listed limitations.

Cisco

  • Catalyst 2960 series; single and stacked units.

  • Catalyst 4500-E series, with Sup6L-E and Sup7L-E.

HP/Aruba (ProCurve/ArubaOS)

  • HP 2520 series; single units.

  • HP 2530 series; single units.

  • HP 2540 series; single units.

  • HP 2810 series, single units.

  • HP 4200 series, specifically 4204vl (J8770A).

  • Aruba 2930F/M series; single units.

Juniper Networks

Full with Junos PyEZ, R/O support with SNMP.

  • EX2300 series switch, running JUNOS 18.2R3-S2.9; single unit.

  • QFX5120 series switch, running JUNOS 20.4R3-S3.4; single unit.

Generic

Several generic snmp implementations on ‘home wireless routers’ and ‘commodity’ switches have been tested, with varying results, depending on the level of SNMP support in the devices.

Napalm devices

Any device supported by the python Napalm library, in read-only mode. Note this was implemented primarily as an example of the Connector() API. See source code for more.

SSH/Command-Only devices

Any device supported by the python Netmiko library. Devices configured as such do NOT poll interfaces, but only allow for commands to be executed on the device.
