1. Click Inventory
2. Locate and select the checkbox for Core-Rtr
3. Click Actions
4. Click Set Role in the dropdown menu



5. You may need to Scroll Down to find Core Router
6. In the Select Role popup, click Core Router
7. Then click Select

8. Click Ok in the warning popup that informs that you must perform a Recalulate and Deploy.

Step 2 - Review ISN Router Role

Review the switch role you set. Again, each switch role will serve a purpose in the type and amount of exact configuration required to be deployed to a given switch, in this case, an external device.
