multiple static routes

[giulio]

Is there a way to add multiple static routes on web gateway ?

I have about 70 routes to be added, i have 5 web gateways...

It is strange that there is no a field for massive insert for static routes... every network device has one...

If i add via CLI, then i lose them at reboot...

I have 7.8.2.8.0 version

thanks for suggestions

Hi Giuliano,

Hope you are doing well.

You can do this using REST API interface

Below is  a POC bash shell script which illustrates how to check or change the MWG's Static Route configuration via REST API.

In the future, we hope to implement a more convenient way to bulk-add Static Routes; however, that is not currently planned for an upcoming release, so the REST API is the best path forward at the moment.

You can refer below link for more info on REST API:-

Script:-

#!/bin/bash
REST="http://127.0.0.1:4711/Konfigurator/REST";
area="appliances"
setting="configuration/com.scur.engine.appliance.routes.configuration/property";
property="network.routes.ip4";

echo "Login to UI"
curl -k -s -c cookies.txt -H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46d2ViZ2F0ZXdheQ==" -X POST "$REST/login" > /dev/null

echo -e "Print list of MWG UUIDs within the cluster\n"

curl -k -s -b cookies.txt "$REST/appliances" -H 'Content-Type: application/xml; charset=UTF-8'
echo -e "\n\n ^ The single appliance in my cluster is listed as \"<id>4208e5e8-b21e-073d-e67f-fbd3a833b8f0</id>\" ^"
echo "Appliance UUIDs can also be found through the UI by selecting \"Configuration->Appliances\". When this is selected, the UUID/Hostname/etc is displayed in the bottom-right pane."

UUID="4208e5e8-b21e-073d-e67f-fbd3a833b8f0"
FullRest=$REST/$area/$UUID/$setting/$property;

echo "Write the current Static Route configuration for $UUID to $UUID.xml"
curl -k -s -b cookies.txt -X GET "$FullRest" -H 'Content-Type: application/xml; charset=UTF-8' > $UUID.xml

echo "Edit the Static Route configuration as needed before continuing"

echo "Overwrite Static Route configuration for $UUID"
curl -k -s -b cookies.txt -d @$UUID.xml -X PUT "$FullRest" -H 'Content-Type: application/xml; charset=UTF-8'; > /dev/null

echo "Save changes (will trigger a network service restart)"
curl -k -s -b cookies.txt -X POST "$REST/commit"

echo "Logout from UI (not usually needed due to the service restart, but a good habit nonetheless)"
curl -k -s -b cookies.txt -X POST "$REST/logout"
