Choose Tools→Route Analysis→Admin Domains / CPAAs from the NFM-P main menu. The Admin Domains / CPAAs form opens.

Choose CPAA (CPAM: Topology) from the object drop-down menu and click on the Search button. A list of discovered CPAAs appears

Configure each CPAA by performing the following:

1. Double-click on an entry in the list of discovered CPAAs. The CPAA (Edit) form opens with the General tab displayed.

2. Set the Administrative State parameter to Down.

   Note:

   Nokia recommends that you apply a reference to the CPAA before you change the configuration. See the NSP NFM-P Control Plane Assurance Manager User Guide for more information.

3. Click on the Administrative Domains tab.

   Note:

   See To deploy a CPAA to monitor a BGP AS for information about how to configure a CPAA to monitor a BGP administrative domain.

4. Configure the Role parameter. You must enable the IGP option.

5. Click on the Select button next to the IGP Admin Domain Number to associate the CPAA with an IGP administrative domain.

   The Select IGP Administrative Domain - CPAA form opens with a list of configured IGP administrative domains.

   Note:

   For CPAAs with ISIS enabled, you cannot add a CPAA to an IGP administrative domain if the area ID of one the ISIS instances of the CPAA is associated to another CPAA in the IGP administrative domain.

6. Choose an entry and click on the OK button. The Select IGP Administrative Domain - CPAA form closes and the CPAA (Edit) form refreshes with the IGP administrative domain information.

7. Click on the Apply button.

8. Click on the General tab.

9. Configure the Protocol Events parameter by selecting one or both of the following options:

   • OSPF / OSPF-TE

   • ISIS / ISIS-TE

   The CPAM retrieves the LSDB and receives change notifications for the selected protocols only.

   Note:

   For monitored LSPs, monitored IP paths, ABM/SAC-managed routes, and other highlights, the appropriate protocols must be enabled to ensure that the topology map view is up-to-date.

10. Configure the Keep Event History parameter by selecting one or more of the following options:

    • OSPF

    • OSPF-TE

    • ISIS-TE

    Note:

    Alternatively, you can view and configure the route listening and analysis parameters from the CPAA tab of the CPAA Network Element (Edit) form. Right-click on a CPAA in the NFM-P equipment view of the navigation tree and choose Properties from the contextual menu. Click on the CPAA Properties button.

11. Set the Administrative State parameter to Up.

12. Click on the Apply button. The area topology is sent to the CPAM from the CPAA.

13. Click on the Retrieve From CPAA button, then either OSPF LSDB or ISIS LSDB if a forced topology resynchronization is required. If the Retrieve From CPAA button is not visible, click on the More Actions button and choose Retrieve From CPAA.

14. Click on the Close button to close the CPAA (Edit) form.

Close the Admin Domains / CPAAs form.
