L1 drivers

This section discusses CloudShell's legacy L1 drivers, which were provided out-of-the-box with CloudShell. However, starting with CloudShell 9.1, the legacy L1 drivers are no longer provided with CloudShell as the Quali Community Integrations 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 9.3 GA 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.

More information on supported drivers is available in the download page for L1 Switch Drivers which is linked from the main Quali's Download Center.
