How do I open a device for configuration?

Purpose

Use this procedure to open Model Driven Configurator (MDC) for an NE or object.

NE parameters are displayed in MDC using a tree structure, derived from the YANG model of the NE. For example, the 7750 SR device supports nokia-conf, nokia-state and openconfig models. The state schema is read-only.

The YANG model is updated over time as part of artifact development.

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.

Steps
 

To open a specified NE object:

  1. Open Device Management, Managed Network Elements.

  2. Select an NE and click png1.png (Table row actions), Open inventory. The NE inventory tree view opens in a new browser tab.

The Configured Attributes view for the object opens in a new browser tab.


To navigate to an NE schema from the main menu:

  1. Open Model Driven Configurator.

  2. Click in the Search for a Network Element field.

    Enter search terms in the filter fields at the top of the page to find a specific NE using NE ID, NE Name, Node Type, or Version.

  4. Click on a schema in the list to view the specific attributes of the schema.
