RibbonEdgePsRest

This project is a Powershell module that allow to control Ribbon SBC Edge with REST API.

It has been started by Vikas Jaswal. http://www.allthingsuc.co.uk/about-me/

Seeing the number of people using this Powershell module and making update on their own, I asked Vikas the authorization to post this code on Github to start a collaboration. This project is completely independent from Ribbon Communication. Ribbon is not responsible for any issue with this module. If you have issue with Ribbon product contact the Ribbon support.

Everyone is free to collaborate on this project or request new feature.

PS: Thanks again Vikas Jaswal for starting this module.

Getting Started

1. Download the RibbonEdgePsRest PowerShell module from the button "Clone or downlaod"
2. Copy the module to your machine. Ideally you want to copy the module to one of the following locations as these are default locations where PowerShell looks for modules when import-module is executed.
   • C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules
   • C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules
3. Open PowerShell and import the module:
   • If the module is in one of the above locations (where PowerShell searches), you can just execute import-module RibbonSBCEdge
   • If the module is not in the default location you can execute import-module C:\RibbonEdgePsRest\RibbonSBCEdge.psm1 (replacing the path where you have copied the module to)
4. To discover what cmdlets are available execute: get-command –module RibbonSBCEdge. Full PowerShell cmdlet help is available for all cmdlets.
