Command Manager

Command Manager is a new component that allows you to create and manage customized commands and scripts that perform device configuration operations. Command Manager uses the Command Builder back-end, but it provides the following additional features:

•View a command repository that contains all commands available on the Prime Network gateway Execute commands on multiple devices

•Use input from files to provide parameter substitution

•Create command packages

Command Manager commands can only be applied at the network element (IManagedElement) level

Command Manager is launched from the Change and Configuration Management GUI or by entering a URL. For more information, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Customization Guide.

Transaction Manager

Transaction Manager provides a GUI framework you can use to schedule and run transactions (activation workflows) that are created using the XDE Eclipse SDK. For new installations of Prime Network, Transaction Manager replaces the Prime Network workflow and activation features that were provided in previous releases of Prime Network. If you have upgraded to Prime Network 4.0, the Workflow and Activation features are still available, but they will be deprecated in the future. We recommend that you use Transaction Manager.

Transaction Manager is launched from the Change and Configuration Management GUI or by entering a URL. For more information, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Customization Guide. Information about installing the XDE Eclipse SDK is available in the Prime Network Technology Center on the Cisco Developer Network.

Compliance Audit

Compliance Audit is a new component that enables the creation of compliance policies to detect and highlight compliance violations in device configurations. This new component replaces the configuration audit functionality that was provided in previous releases. For more information, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 User Guide..

Operations Reports

Operations Reports is an optional add-on component to Prime Network 4.0 that provides extended reporting functionality. It provides a wide range of prepackaged reports that you can run for your various business needs. It also allows you to create your own reports or customize reports according to your own requirements. Operations Reports processes and stores a large amount of data relating to faults, device inventory, technologies (including data center and mobility), and so on. Operations Reports enables you to access this data and evaluate it by generating meaningful reports which can help you understand your deployments better and take better business-critical decisions.

The Operations Reports component is a Web component that is installed on top of Prime Network and accessed via a URL. For information on installing Operations reports, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Installation Guide. For information on using Operations reports, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Operations Reports User Guide.

New Technology Support in Prime Network 4.0

Prime Network 4.0 adds device-level inventory modeling and event generation for the technologies listed below. For information on which technologies are supported on which Cisco devices, see Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Supported Cisco VNEs.

Mobility

•Inventory modeling of Mobility Management Entity (MME) in LTE access networks.

•Inventory modeling of Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) in GPRS networks.

Data Center

•Topology view of UCS compute servers—Using Prime Network Vision, you can view the physical layout and topology among the multi-chassis devices on the map. The multi-chassis devices have more than one physical chassis, but they are represented as a single entity in Prime Network. In a map, this device is shown as an aggregation of all the device chassis. For a UCS device, you can view its chassis along with the other elements relevant to the UCS device, such as Blade Server and IO Modules.

•Modeling of VMware vCenter virtualization which provides centralized management of virtualized hosts and virtual machines from a single console. vCenter is modeled as a single VNE.

•Significantly improved data center discovery performance—The discovery timeline of 1 VM vMotion for a vCenter VNE with load of 3000 VMs has been reduced from 11 minutes 23 seconds in Prime Network 3.10 to 30 seconds in Prime Network 4.0.

•Modeling of Fibre Channel (FC) and Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) technologies and topology on Nexus 5000, Nexus 7000, UCS, and MDS devices.

•Additional Virtual Network Device Support

–Cisco Cloud Service Router (CSR) 1000v

–Cisco Virtual Security Gateway (VSG)

•Additional Compute Server Support

–UCS B-Series Servers

–UCS C-Series Servers

–Non-Cisco servers including non-UCS servers such as HP, Dell or IBM

Cable

Modeling of the following cable configurations for the RF Gateway-10 and uBR10012 devices:

•DOCSIS Timing Interface client (DTI Client)

•Quadrature Amplitude Modulation domain (QAM Domain)

•MAC Domain

•Narrowband Channels

•Wide Band Channels

•Fiber Node

Additional Device Configuration Scripts

The following additional configuration scripts are packaged with Prime Network 4.0:

•Configuration scripts to support Cable technologies on UBR10K and RFGW10 devices, including:

–Configuring Cable Ports and Interfaces

–Viewing Upstream and Downstream Configurations for Cable

–Viewing QAM Configurations that includes configuring RF and Frequency Profiles

–Configuring Downstream External PHY Interface (DEPI) and Layer 2 Tunnel Protocol (L2TP)

•Configuration scripts to configure the Systems Architecture Evolution (SAE) - GW on ASR 5000 devices.

High Availability

Prime Network 4.0 introduces the Hot Backup feature for high availability. When restoring the redundancy configuration on a failed site, the active site does not need to be taken down. Both sites are up while the failed site resumes, and you can switch back to the active site without any down time. For more details, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Gateway High Availability Guide.

Prime Network Administration

The following new features and enhancements are described in the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Administrator Guide.

New Registry Controller for Changing System-Wide Defaults for VNEs, User Accounts, Link Displays, and Oracle Database Encryption

The Registry Controller GUI provides an easy way to change the system-wide defaults for the most frequently changed settings. This includes:

•User Accounts—Whether users can view maps created by other users; and the user access role required to log into the Events GUI client (the default is Administrator).

•Links Display— Whether a link should be displayed on a map only when both link endpoints are in the user's device scope.

•Database —Settings that control the archiving of tickets in the Oracle database based on the total number of tickets; settings that control the archiving of tickets in the Oracle database based on the size of individual tickets; and whether raw events are saved to the Event Archive.

•System Security—How to encrypt external Oracle database connections and which algorithms can be used for encryption.

•VNEs

–Reduced Polling—Whether all VNEs should use reduced polling or not; and if they do, whether Prime Network should generate an event if a VNE does not support reduced polling.

–Adaptive Polling— Settings that control the Telnet delimiter delay and terminal length used by the adaptive polling mechanism when a VNE is using slow polling.

–Communication Policies— Settings that determine when a device is unreachable.

–Device Protocol Reachability— Settings that determine when individual device protocols (HTTP, ICMP, SNMP, Telnet, and XML) are unreachable.

–Smart Polling—Settings that control the interval that prevents over polling when repeated queries are sent to a device.

–Staggering Mechanism—Settings that control the rate at which VNEs initiate Telnet/SSH connections (to prevent degraded performance on TACACS servers).

The Registry Controller is launched by choosing Tools > Registry Controller from the Administration GUI client main menu.

VNE Adaptive Polling Groups

You can now create customized adaptive polling groups that control how VNEs respond to high CPU events. This groups mechanism allows you to apply settings to multiple VNEs, rather than having to specify settings per VNEs. Once an adaptive polling group is created, it is made available to all VNEs in the new Adaptive Polling tab in the VNE properties.

User Authorization

Some user authorization controls have been extended to apply to additional Prime Network features. The controls include:

•Requiring users to enter device access credentials when they execute device configuration operations.

•Support for the global per-user authorization which, if enabled, means users can only execute jobs if they have been granted this privilege in their user account.

These controls already apply to Command Builder, Activations, and Workflows. The controls have been extended to Command Manager, Transaction Manager, Configuration and Change Management (including Compliance Audit).

New AVMs for New Features

•AVM 41—Change and Configuration Management Compliance Audit

•AVM 44—Prime Network Operations Reports

Change and Configuration Management

The following new CCM features and enhancements are described in the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 User Guide.

•Framework available to support non-Cisco devices.

•NBI support for configuration backup, restore, and export.

•NBI to retrieve CCM job details

•Ability to edit archived configuration files, and restore them later. The edited configuration files can also be deployed to devices of the same series.

•Ability to download an IOS image from Cisco.com as a .tar file and deploy in the image repository without changes. The .tar files available in the image repository can later be distributed to the devices.

•Ability to compare device configurations without excluded lines.

•Support for using a non-default SCP port during image distribution and configuration backup operations.

•Ability to apply images immediately after distribution without waiting for polling.

•Enhanced security measure that can be enabled to restrict access to devices. If enabled, users must provide device credentials before accessing or making any configuration changes to devices.

•Ability to perform configuration restore in overwrite mode on ASR 901, ASR 903, and MWR 2941 devices.

•Ability to change the port being used by Change and Configuration Management by changing it in the VNE properties (from the Telnet/SSH tab).

Fault Management

The following new fault management features and enhancements are described in the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Administrator Guide.

•A lock for tickets that, if specified, determines when a cleared ticket can no longer be reopened and no new events can be added to it. It is disabled by default and is controlled from the Administration GUI client (under Global Settings > Event Management Settings).

•A new Cisco Configuration Management Trap Filter that filters out ciscoConfigManEvent traps using a Noise Filter. These traps are ignored and are not saved to the Event Archive.

•VNE alarm persistency information is associated to the VNE's ID instead of its IP address. This means that if the device IP address is changed or the VNE is moved, the persistency information is still associated to the correct VNE.

•The new Registry Controller provides an easy way to change the following fault-related settings:

–Settings that control the archiving of tickets in the Oracle database based on the total number of tickets.

–Settings that control the archiving of tickets in the Oracle database based on the size of individual tickets.

–Whether raw events are saved to the Event Archive.

The Registry Controller is launched by choosing Tools > Registry Controller from the Administration GUI client main menu.

The following new fault management features and enhancements are described in the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 User Guide.

•Ability to manually deacknowledge an acknowledged ticket.

•Ticket and events tables and properties now display the "Element Type" which is the type of device that triggered the event or the root event (in the case of a ticket). Tables can be filtered by the Element Type parameter.

•The following ticket actions are now disabled when Prime Network is operating in suite mode: Acknowledge, Deacknowledge, Clear, Remove, and Add Note.

VNE Customization Builder (VCB)

The following new VCB features and enhancements are described in the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Customization Guide.

•The VCB GUI now enables import of VCB customizations. Prior to this release, import could be done using CLI only.

•Support for identifying new or existing events as a flapping events (events that rapidly change state and are identified based on the number of times and the frequency with which the change of state occurs).

•Ability to create an expedite rule for events that will cause the device to be polled immediately for inventory updates upon receipt of the event, instead of waiting for the next polling cycle.

•Ability to simulate new or customized events from the VCB GUI in order to check that the customization has been successful.

Prime Network Integration Layer

Prime Network 4.0 introduces the following new integration layer features and enhancements:

3GPP Features

New Device Support Information

Prime Network 4.0 introduces new device support and also incorporates all the device support additions that were provided in the March 2013 Device Package (Prime Network 3.10 DP1303). For more information, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Supported Cisco VNEs. Additional device support will be available in the next DP. This will be available for download on the Prime Network download site on Cisco.com and will be documented in the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Supported Cisco VNEs—Addendum.

For user convenience, the addendum will be appended to the PDF version of the Supported Cisco VNEs document so that there is a single source of up to date device support information.

Important Notes

This section provides important information of which you should be aware before using Prime Network 4.0.

Installation and Upgrade

•Solaris Support Discontinued—From this release onwards, Prime Network installation is only supported in a Linux environment and is no longer supported in a Solaris environment.

•Operations Reports does not support IPv6. The gateway, database server (Oracle and Infobright), and the units should be installed with IPv4.

Configuration Audit, Activation, and Workflow Features Available upon Upgrade Only

•The configuration audit feature in Change and Configuration Management is being replaced with Compliance Audit, a new component introduced in this release. In Prime Network 4.0, the legacy configuration audit feature is available only when upgrading to Prime Network 4.0 from an earlier version that included this functionality.

•Activation and workflow features are being replaced with Transaction Manager, a new component introduced in this release. In Prime Network 4.0, the legacy activation and workflow features are available only when upgrading to Prime Network 4.0 from an earlier version.

Cable Technology - uBR10K Devices

For uBR10K devices, cable modeling for Upstream and Downstream channels and complete modeling for the MC20X20V and MC3GX60V line cards will be only supported from versions 12.2(33)SCG5 and higher.

Browser Limitations for Prime Network Web Components

•Firefox—Users might not be able to connect to the Prime Networkk Web server to use features such as VCB, Network Discovery, and CCM using Firefox if the gateway IP address is a raw IPv6 address. This is due to a Firefox defect. To avoid this issue, log into Prime Network using a hostname instead of an IP address.

•Internet Explorer 8—The Network Discovery Profile page might take longer than usual to load due to this browser's slower JavaScript engine.

Potential Image Management Issues on ASR 9000 Devices Running IOS XR 4.3.0

Under some circumstances the device driver (VNE) representing an ASR 9000 device running IOS-XR 4.3.0 can enter and remain in a state that affects Prime Network's ability to display installed IOS-XR packages and distribute IOS-XR images to the device. While Prime Network can continue to monitor the device and update the physical and logical inventory, the condition affecting the image management functionality will persist. This issue has been observed on occasion with densely populated ASR 9000 devices running IOS-XR 4.3.0, and Cisco is working on resolving it. If you encounter this issue, try restarting the VNE.

Changing Command Builder and Workflow Privileges when in Suite Mode

Command Builder and Workflow access privileges can be controlled from the Prime Network Administration GUI client, even when using Prime Network in suite mode.

Automatic Restart After Gateway Reboot

Prime Network 4.0 will restart automatically whenever the gateway server is restarted. This behavior can be disabled (so that Prime Network has to be manually started after a gateway restart). See the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Administrator Guide for more information.

Auto-Discovery of Unsupported Modules

Auto-discovery of unsupported module types is done on a best effort basis and is based on standard information which is reported by the device as part of the ENTITY-MIB. Operators are advised to validate that the discovery was fully successful. If not, add support for the specific module type using the VCB.

StarOS 14.0 - Disabled MIBs

Starting from StarOS 14.0, the following MIBs are disabled by default in the device.

•ENTITY-MIB

•IF-MIB

•ENTITY-STATE-MIB

•CISCO-ENTITY-FRU-CONTROL-MIB

The physical inventory will not be modeled if these MIBs are disabled. Enable the MIBs using the following: 

configure

snmp mib ENTITY-MIB

snmp mib IF-MIB

snmp mib ENTITY-STATE-MIB

snmp mib CISCO-ENTITY-FRU-CONTROL-MIB

To verify if the above MIBs are enabled, use: 

show snmp server
