Feature Request - MX7000 Ideas

[nebb00]

Got some ideas if you're interesting in improving the functionality for the MX chassis'. I have a barbaric powershell script i did a few years ago, can share if interested in some of the leg work. But some high level;

1. Create/Modify/Delete Network "VLANs"

   • Would need to grab the network "QOS" types - GET "/api/NetworkConfigurationService/NetworkTypes"
   • Network Name and Description
   • VLAN Start/Min and VLAN End/Max (aka the range, both the same value for singular)
   • Create network with - POST "/api/NetworkConfigurationService/Networks"
   • Delete network with - DELETE "/api/NetworkConfigurationService/Networks(Id)"

2. Add/Remove Network from template, including "PropagateVlan"

   • Get Template Details "/api/TemplateService/Templates($($template.Id))/Views(4)/AttributeViewDetails"
   • Add Network - "/api/TemplateService/Actions/TemplateService.UpdateNetworkConfig"

Always open to improvements and feedback is welcome!

1. New-OMENetwork Remove-OMENetwork exist already but could use some improvements around the Type field. It's just an integer now. Would need to add Get-OMENetworkTypes commandlet to return the Network Types. Edit-OMENetwork would need to be added.
2. Set-OMETemplateNetwork will do that for you :)

Here is an example MX bare metal deployment script using the provided commandlets. https://github.com/dell/OpenManage-PowerShell-Modules/blob/main/Examples/Chassis-BareMetalProvision.ps1

Not sure how I missed those commands. I will give them a go. Thank you. Get-OMENetworkTypes and Edit-OMENetwork would be pretty helpful
