Create new group given a group name, configuration
mode(UI or template mode of configuration) to be set per device type and
the user can also specify the following properties for the group
-
Device types(AccessPoints, Gateways, Switches, SD_WAN_Gateway) to be allowed in the group
-
Architecture(Instant / AOS10) for the access points and gateways in the group.
Architecture would be SD_WAN_Gateway for groups containing SD_WAN_Gateway devices. -
Network role(Standard / Microbranch) for access points in the group.
Standard network role is applicable for both AOS10 and Instant architecture.
Microbranch network role for access points is applicable only for AOS10 architecture. -
Network role(BranchGateway / VPNConcentrator / WLANGateway) for gateways in the group.
BranchGateway and VPNConcentrator network role are applicable for both AOS10 and Instant architecture.
WLANGateway network role is applicable only for AOS10 architecture.
VPNConcentrator would be the only network role applicable for SD_WAN_Gateway devices. -
Switch device types (AOS_S, AOS_CX) to be allowed in the group if the group can have switches.
-
List of device types for which monitor only mode is to be enabled. Currently, this is available only
for AOS_S and AOS_CX switches in groups where switches are managed using UI mode of configuration.
If empty list - [] is passed as value, monitor only mode is disabled. -
NewCentral: Flag to specify that the group created should be compatible with New Central workflows.
Configuration mode can be set for Access points and Gateways under the 'Wireless' field and for
switches under the 'Wired' field. The configuration mode is specified as a boolean value indicating
if the device type is managed using the template mode of configuration or not.
