How do I see what is configured on an NE?

NE inventory view

Select an NE from the list in Device Management, Managed Network Elements and click (Table row actions), View NE Inventory. The NE inventory tree view opens in a new browser tab.

NE child objects are displayed in an expandable/collapsible hierarchy. Click on an inventory object to show object properties in the Information panel.

Individual inventory objects (child objects) show object names and basic administrative and operational state information. The color of an inventory object indicates its state.

Note: The inventory details available in NSP depend on the adaptors installed and managed NE configuration.

NE inventory information is grouped by type of object:

• Physical inventory

  Physical objects configured on the NE, such as shelves, cards, and ports, are grouped in the inventory view as an Equipment Group.

• Logical inventory

  If applicable, supported logical entities such as LAGs and routing instances are also displayed, grouped as a Logical Group. The Logical Group appears below the Equipment Group in the inventory tree.

Available actions

Select an inventory object and click to open the tree item actions menu. Options in the tree item actions menu depend on the object.

• For the NE (top of the inventory):

  • Open in Current Alarms: opens the alarm list

  • Open object (available on model-driven NEs only):

    Model Driven Configurator opens in a new browser tab, filtered to the object.

  • Open NE session: a CLI session with the NE opens in a new browser tab.

  • Plot utilization statistics: a set of utilization statistics charts opens in a new browser tab.

  • Show in Event Timeline: a filtered event timeline for the NE opens in a new browser tab.

  • Expand all: shows all child objects of the NE.

• For the Equipment Group:

  • Expand all: shows all objects in the equipment inventory tree.

  • Export all: download a file to your local computer, containing the equipment inventory of the NE. The export file is in .xlsx format, with a sheet for each object type configured on the NE.

    For example, if there are ports configured, the export file includes a sheet called ports, populated with the ports and their properties.

  • Export filtered: this action is available if a filter is applied in the NE Inventory view. You can filter by equipment type, operational state, administrative state, or a combination of filters, for example, cards with operational state enabled. The export filtered option allows you to download an inventory file of the filtered data.

• For a port:

  • Open in Current Alarms

  • Open object (available on model-driven NEs only):

  • Plot utilization statistics

  • Expand all: shows all child objects of the selected object.

• For other objects, the only options are Open object and Expand all.

If an option in the object tree item actions menu is dimmed, the action is not available.

If this occurs, check the following:

• adaptors:

  • MDC adaptors must be present for the NE for Model Driven Configurator to be opened

  • an alarm adaptor must be present for NSP to display alarms

  • telemetry mappings must be present to plot statistics

• Mediation: for NE session, a CLI mediation policy must be configured in the discovery rule used to manage the NE.

If the problem persists, contact Nokia support.

Configured Attributes view

Open the Model Driven Configurator view for the NE to see the parameters defined in the NE adaptation schema.

NE parameters are displayed using a tree structure, derived from the YANG model of the NE. The schema trees displayed vary based on the NE adaptors that are installed. For example, the 7750 SR device supports nokia-conf, nokia-state and openconfig models. The state schema is read-only.

Choose Configured Attributes View from the drop-down list at the top of the page to view only the configured parameters on the NE. Choose All Attributes View to view all of the available parameters, including parameters with default values.
