Workflow for impact analysis simulation

Stages


1	Create a scenario or open an existing scenario. See To create a scenario and To open a scenario for more information.
2	Start the simulation. See To create a scenario for more information.
3	Import objects. Import MPLS objects from the NFM-P network. See To import MPLS objects from the NFM-P for more information. Import IP paths from other scenarios or from the NFM-P network. See To import IP paths for more information.
4	Manage objects on the simulated IGP topology view. Add routers. See To create a simulated OSPF router and To create a simulated ISIS router for more information. Add links. See To add a simulated OSPF link , To add a simulated OSPF virtual link , and To add a simulated ISIS link for more information.ee Procedures Add subnets. See To create a simulated OSPF subnet and To create a simulated ISIS subnet for more information. View and configure areas, routing domains, routers, links, or subnets. See To view and configure a simulated OSPF area to To view and configure a simulated ISIS router for more information. Turn up or shut down routers, links, or subnets. See To change the administrative state of a simulated network object for more information. Create provisioned paths. See To create a simulated provisioned MPLS path for more information. Create LSPs. See To create a simulated LSP for more information. View historical LSP path records. See To view historical LSP path records for more information. Perform a manual resignal of an LSP. See To perform a manual resignal of an LSP for more information. Capture the path of LSP associated with an LSP. See To capture the path of LSP paths associated with an LSP for more information. Monitor simulated IP paths. See To monitor a simulated IP path for more information. Delete simulated objects. See To delete a simulated network object for more information.
5	View configuration information about simulated network objects in a scenario. See To view simulated IGP network data for more information.
6	Highlight objects, as required. Highlight simulated LSPs. See To highlight a simulated LSP for more information. Highlight historical simulated LSP path records. See To highlight a simulated historical LSP path record for more information. Highlight simulated LSP paths. See To highlight a simulated LSP path for more information. Highlight SPF links. See To highlight SPF links for more information. Highlight CSPF. See To highlight CSPF for more information. Highlight historical simulated IP path records. See To highlight a historical simulated IP path record for more information.
7	View the history of simulation events. See To view the history of simulation events for more information.
8	Manage impact analysis sessions. See To manage impact analysis sessions for more information.
