Introduction

You can use the REST API to manage the Cisco CSR 1000V as an alternative to configuring and managing selected features on the router using the Cisco IOS XE CLI. This chapter describes how to configure the Cisco CSR 1000V to enable management using the REST API. For detailed information about using the REST API, see the Cisco CSR 1000V Series Cloud Services Router REST API Management Reference Guide.

Enabling REST API Support During Cisco CSR 1000V OVA Deployment

If you are deploying the Cisco CSR 1000V OVA template, support for REST API is configured in the Bootstrap Properties screen of the OVA Wizard. The required fields are different depending on the Cisco IOS XE release. Table 14-1and Table 14-2list the fields required to enable REST API support when deploying the OVA template.

For more information on deploying the OVA template, see the “Deploying the Cisco CSR 1000V OVA Template to the VM” section on page 4-10.
