CPAA commissioning and discovery overview

Introduction

The discovery process is similar to the discovery process of the 7750 SR and 7450 ESS. The NFM-P discovers CPAAs using SNMP. During the discovery process, the NFM-P scans the network for devices according to user-defined IP addresses or IP address ranges. When the system IP address, or ID, is used to discover the device, management is in-band. After you discover the CPAAs, you can create network interfaces and routing instances to discover OSPF and ISIS network topologies and BGP networks.

The 7701 CPAA and vCPAA are managed by the NFM-P like any other NE. Management procedures such as timing synchronization, polling, deployments, and NE resynchronization are similar to procedures for other SR OS devices. See the NSP NFM-P User Guide for information about general device management functions.
