# Extreme Networks

Hamina Network Planner includes integration with ExtremeCloud IQ and Extreme PlatformONE, which can be used to import to and export from Hamina Network Planner to Extreme Networks infrastructure.

{% hint style="danger" %}
For integration with ExtremeCloud IQ, ExtremeCloud IQ Pilot is required.
{% endhint %}

The **Export** function rapidly deploys a new site, or updates an existing site directly from Hamina Network Planner. This removes the need for any repeat map-based deployment work - all of the mapping work is automatically copied directly from Hamina Network Planner.

The **Import** function can speed up initial project creation by importing the floorplan and access point locations of an existing site directly from CloudIQ.

## Generating an API Token

There are two keys that you can use to authenticate Hamina Network Planner to ExtremeCloud IQ:

* A bearer token, which will expire. For more information, consult [Extreme's API key generation documentation](https://documentation.extremenetworks.com/XIQ/user_guide/GUID-B419B88D-9272-419D-A6F1-962785BA6AC0.shtml).
* A Developer API Key, which can be configured to not expire.

We recommend creating a **Developer API Key** for ExtremeCloud IQ, which can have a much longer duration. 

### Generating a Developer API Token

Creating the Developer API token requires two steps:

1. Authenticate with a username and password to generate a bearer token.
2. Perform an API call with the bearer token to generate the Developer API token.

### Exporting from Hamina to Extreme IQ

There are two primary ways to export from Hamina to Extreme:

* Choose **Matched access points** and **Unmatched access points**. In this case, Hamina will randomly assign access points to the map, with respect for each model.
* Choose **Match names to APs** before the export. This gives you precise control over exactly which AP goes where.

To match names to APs:

1. Name the access points in Extreme IQ.
2. Use identical names for access points in Hamina Network Planner.
3. Check **Matched access points**, also **Unmatched access points**, and **Assign unmatched access points by name** in Hamina Network Planner.
4. Export from Hamina Network Planner to Extreme.
