# Extreme network device importer

Versio.io can import, historize and process configuration data from Extreme Networks network devices.

## Configuration

You can find the configuration option in Versio.io at `Environment settings > OneImporter > Configurations > Extreme`.

Here you can edit all existing configurations, create new configurations or delete existing configurations. To add a new configuration, enter a `Name` for your importer and an `Entity suffix` (default: `-extreme`) to clearly identify your Extreme entities.  
Note that the `Entity suffix` is fixed and cannot be changed afterwards.

Click `Add` to proceed to the configuration.

To edit an existing configuration, click the arrow on the left of your importer name to expand the configuration options.

The following configuration options are available:

| Field | Description | Advice |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Name** | Meaningful name | Add the word "Extreme" to identify the importer when viewing the logs |
| **Active** | Option to activate and deactivate the configuration. Data is only imported if the configuration is activated. |  |
| **Port** | SSH port of the network devices. | Default is port `22`. |
| **Credential** | Select authorization for network device access. | Enter SSH username and password at `Settings > Access Management > Credential Vaults` |
| **Domains &amp; IPs** | Enter all network device domains or IPs. |  |
| **Entities** | Select the entities to be inventoried by Versio.io. |  |
| **Executing OneImporter** | Select a Versio.io OneImporter to import the data based on the importer configuration. | Requires an installed OneImporter: [Installation instructions](<https://docs.versio.io/setup-one-importer/index.md>) |
| **Schedule time (cron format)** | Determine the frequency of imports in CRON format | Learn more about CRON format: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron>) |

## Create user on Extreme network device

Versio.io runs the following commands on your Extreme network device to inventory it:

```text
show system
show configuration detail
```

For the inventory, it is necessary to create a user so that Versio.io can authenticate itself on the Extreme network device. An "admin" user is required.
