Edit / Delete Device Profile

Edit Device Profile

If a device profile is used in an interface map, you may not be able to change it if it would adversely affect that interface map. As of Apstra version 4.1.1, you can't change predefined profiles, since your changes would be discarded when you upgrade the Apstra server. You could clone and edit a predefined device profile instead.)

CAUTION:

Editing a device profile can lead to a mismatch between the profile's stated abilities and the device's actual capabilities, potentially leading to unexpected results.
  1. Either from the table view (Devices > Device Profiles) or the details view, click the Edit button for the device profile to edit.
  2. Make your changes.
  3. Click Update (bottom-right) to update the device profile and return to the table view.

Delete Device Profile

Predefined device profiles can't be deleted. Device profiles used in interface maps can't be deleted.

  1. Either from the table view (Devices > Device Profiles) or the details view, click the Delete button for the device profile to delete.
  2. Click Delete to delete the device profile and return to the table view.

    You can also use REST API to manage device profiles. Navigate to Platform > Developers for REST API Documentation and tools.
