|
Configure device mediation
|
|
|
5 |
Specify the network mediation parameters, and optionally configure the following mediation policies for devices in specific discovery rules; see
To configure device mediation :
-
MIB entry policies that define how to poll specific device MIBs for changes
-
management ping policies that define periodic device connectivity checks
-
event notification policies that define how the NFM-P processes SNMP traps
|
6 |
As required, assign event notification policies to devices; see
To assign an event notification policy to an NE .
|
Configure additional management networks
|
|
|
7 |
If required, configure one or more additional management networks.
-
Define the management network and subnets to associate with non-default management interfaces on main and auxiliary servers; see
To configure a management network .
-
Create additional main-server management interfaces; see
To configure an additional management interface on a main server .
-
Create additional auxiliary-server management interfaces; see
To configure an additional management interface on an auxiliary server .
|
Configure device discovery
|
|
|
8 |
If required, create a workflow for post-discovery actions using Workflows.
|
9 |
If required, create post-discovery actions; see
To configure a post-discovery action .
Note: You can also create post-discovery actions during discovery rule creation.
|
10 |
Create the required device discovery rules and use the rules to discover devices; see
To configure a discovery rule .
|
11 |
Manage discovery rules; see
To enable, disable, or delete a discovery rule .
|
12 |
As required, manage the post-discovery actions in discovery rules.
-
View the execution status of an associated script; see
To view the post-discovery action execution status .
-
Manually execute a failed script; see
To manage a post-discovery action failure on an NE .
|
Incidental tasks
|
|
|
13 |
As required, perform the following.
-
Change the management state of a device; see
To manage, suspend, or unmanage a device .
-
Change from SNMPv2c to SNMPv3 management of a device; see
To change from SNMPv2 to SNMPv3 management of a device .
-
Switch from non-secure to secure mediation; see
To switch from non-secure to secure mediation .
-
Specify which management IP address is saved for a device when the device is set to an unmanaged state; see
To specify which management address the NFM-P uses to remanage a device .
-
Rescan the network using a discovery rule; see
To rescan the network for a device according to a discovery rule .
-
Synchronize the NFM-P information with the device configuration; see
To partially or fully resynchronize NEs with the NFM-P database .
-
Manage SSH2 host key acceptance; see
To manually accept a mismatched SSH host key and
To view the SSH2 host keys to identify active and mismatched keys .
-
View and save collected SNMP MIB information; see
To list and save SNMP MIB information .
-
Delete a device from the NFM-P; see
To delete a device from the managed network . |
