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 make any configuration changes. See the NSP NFM-P Control Plane Assurance Manager User Guide for more information.

   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.

   See To configure route listening and analysis on a CPAA for information about how to configure a CPAA to monitor an IGP administrative domain.

Click on the Administrative Domains tab.

Configure the Role parameter. You must enable the BGP option.

Note: To remove a role from a CPAA that is assigned to an administrative domain, set the Administrative State parameter to Down, remove the role, and click on the Apply button. The CPAM automatically removes the selected administrative domain.

Click on the Select button next to the Type parameter to associate the CPAA with a BGP AS.

The Select BGP AS/Sub-AS - CPAA form opens with a list of configured BGP AS.
