Add Change Actions

Change actions are the specific configuration steps that will be executed on the target device when the change is approved. You must add at least one action before you can submit.

Before you start

• Your change request must be in draft or rejected status.
• Know the specific ports and values you want to change. NetEdgeIQ shows you the current observed state (from the last discovery) next to each action so you can confirm your inputs.

Available action types

Steps

1. Open the change request (search for CHG-XXXX or find it in the Changes list).
2. In the change detail view, find the Change Actions or Change Plan section.
3. Click Add Action.
4. Select the action type from the list.

5. Fill in the action details. Fields vary by action type:

   Set port description

   Field	Example
   Port	GigabitEthernet0/1
   Description	Uplink to MDF-CORE-1

   Set port VLAN

   Field	Example
   Port	GigabitEthernet0/3
   Mode	access or trunk
   VLAN	100

   Set port admin state

   Field	Example

   State	enabled or disabled

   Set port speed/duplex

   Field	Example

   Speed	1000 (Mbps)
   Duplex	full, half, or auto

6. Click Save Action.
7. Repeat for each additional action you need. You can add as many as required.

What happens next

• Each action is added to the change plan and listed in the change request detail.
• You can see the current observed state alongside each action to confirm you're targeting the right port with the right values.
• Actions can be added, edited, or removed as long as the change is in draft or rejected status.
• Once you're satisfied, proceed to submit for approval.
