Original Hotfix release

SR 30855404

CQECC00487503

Out of band accessible devices classes that support SNMP/TFTP to manage configurations cannot be managed by using SNMP/TFTP.

Ensure that a working read-write credential is defined and used for SNMP discovery. Without scheduling, update the credentials if the device used only a read-only credential, since this is insufficient for configuration management by this protocol combination.

CQECC00495460

Devices using SCP for configuration change may require an administrator user account for configuration file transfers to succeed. If an administrator account is not used, configuration pulls and pushes can result in a failed job.

Note: : The error message for a failed job of this type may not properly describe the lack of device account privilege necessary.

To determine if an administrator account is required for a specific device, perform the configuration file transfer manually from the device server managing the device.

Juniper WXC device class must be added to the device class list so that Juniper WXC devices are discovered by Juniper WXC device class.

IAP Certifications

Model name will be displayed as VirtualControllerIAP when the Aruba IAP device is in virtual controller mode and the exact model of the IAP will not be displayed. Certain device specific information might not be pulled
