L1 drivers
This section discusses CloudShell's legacy L1 drivers, which were provided out-of-the-box in previous versions. However, starting with CloudShell 9.1, the legacy L1 drivers are no longer provided with CloudShell as the Quali Repositories page includes a comprehensive list of L1 shells you can use. If you're still using legacy drivers, see this Quali Community's Forums post.
CloudShell includes the following Layer 1 (L1) drivers and driver configuration files, which are installed in the CloudShell\Server\Drivers folder.
The list of supported switches for each driver is included in the driver configuration files.
The legacy supported drivers are available in the Quali Forums, and missing ones can be provided on demand via the Idea box.
