NSP inventory reports overview

General information

NSP inventory reports provide hardware configuration details at the card and port levels. NSP inventory reports include inventory data for NEs managed by the NFM-P and MDM (model-driven Nokia or multivendor NEs).

Note: The report input options list all NEs that are compatible with NSP inventory reports, not only the NEs that are present. A report can only be generated on NEs found in the network.

Use cases

Network planning—Use the reports to plan for the acquisition of new hardware when required.

Prerequisites

An MDM adapter is required for MDM-mediated NEs. Contact your technical support representative for more information. You must also enable statistics; see the Data Collection and Analysis Guide.
