HP VAN SDN Controller Administrator Guide

B cURL Commands

Caution

Credential information (user name, password, domain, and authentication tokens) used in

cURL commands may be saved in the command history. For security reasons, HP

recommends that you disable command history prior to executing commands containing

credential information.

Note

Examples of cURL commands in this guide use the "--noproxy" option, which is

appropriate where execution of cURL commands does not need a proxy to access

controllers. If your network is set up such that a proxy is needed to access controllers, use

the "--proxy" option. For details on cURL proxy options, visit

http://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html .
