To create or modify an NE MIB statistics policy using a top-down method

Steps
 

Choose Tools→Statistics→MIB Policies from the NFM-P main menu. The Manage MIB Statistics Policies form opens.


Choose NE MIB Statistics Policy (SNMP).


Specify a filter to create a filtered list of MIB statistics policies, if required, and click Search. A list of MIB statistics policies is displayed.


Click Create, or choose a MIB statistics policy from the list and click Properties. The NE MIB Statistics Policy (Create|Edit) form opens.

Note: When you change a MIB statistics policy for an NE, the change affects all of the NEs to which the policy is assigned.

When you change a MIB statistics policy for a statistics class of an object, the change applies to all objects that use the same statistics class.


Configure the required parameters.

Note: To view statistics on the NFM-P GUI, you must set the Administrative State parameter of the MIB statistics policy to UP and the Polling Admin State parameter must be set to UP.


Click Apply. The form refreshes to display additional tabs.


Click on the Network Elements tab.


Click Assign Sites. A filter form opens.


Configure the filter criteria and click OK. The Assign policy_name form opens with a list of NEs displayed.

Select one or more NEs from the Unassigned Sites list, and click the right arrow. The selected NEs move to the Assigned Sites list.

Note: You can also assign an NE MIB policy to NEs using a discovery rule. Doing this does not affect the previously discovered NEs. See the NSP NFM-P Classic Management User Guide for information about device discovery.

Click OK. The Assign policy_name form closes and the NE MIB Statistics Policy form reappears.

Save your changes and close the forms.
