Device Configuration Service
This chapter describes the Device Configuration service, which returns device statistics for WAEs and Central Managers.
The Device Configuration service (DeviceConf Web Service) performs one or more of the following actions:
- getAPIVersion
- getCM
- getCMByName
- getDevice
- getDeviceByName
- getDeviceGroups
- getDevices
- getDevicesInGroup
- getDevicesInGroupByName
- getDevicesPerLocation
- getLocations
- getWAE
- getWAEByName
- getWAEs
- getWAEsInGroup
- getWAEsInGroupByName
- getWAEsPerLocation
- getAPIVersion
Service URL: https:// <host/ip> :8443/ws/ DeviceConf
WSDL URL: https://<host/ip>:8443/ws/DeviceConf?wsdl
To obtain a description of all the operations and parameters for the DeviceConf service, submit a URL to the service with the suffix ?wsdl as follows:
To obtain management information using the Central Manager monitoring API, first call the service by using the service URL for this service as follows:
Next, send a SOAP request written in an XML format to retrieve the information. The request calls for a particular action (such as getWanInfo) and contains the WS-Security header (username and password) and the input parameter content when required.
The following example shows an XML-formatted SOAP request to perform the getAPIVersion action. There are no input parameters for this particular action. The next example shows the XML response that contains the output values for this action, such as the hostname, IP address, location, MAC address, and so forth.
