  • Control security policies with AAA servers, ACLs, and trusted port settings
  • Create and apply switch profiles and templates for consistent configurations
  • Handle firmware upgrades and configuration backups
  • Configure DHCP servers and static routing
  • Import and onboard new switches to the platform
  • Manage CLI templates and web authentication pages

Authentication

All API calls require valid authentication via JWT (JSON Web Token) in Authorization header.
