Managing AVMs and VNEs
Cisco Systems, Inc. Page 93
• Cloud: Loads an unmanaged network segment. Specific cloud
configuration is provided on a per project basis.
• ICMP: The VNE uses this ICMP-based reachability test to validate
communication with the managed device by continuously sending
ICMP packets.
Note: When this option is selected the ICMP tab is enabled (the
SNMP, Telnet / SSH and Polling tabs are disabled).
• Scheme: Defines the VNE modeling components investigated during the
discovery process. This enables the administrator to define different
behavior for some devices, for example, for some devices poll only with
SNMP and for other devices also poll with Telnet. Soft properties and
activation scripts are also attached to a specific scheme. By default, the
VNE inherits the VNE Scheme from the Default scheme. Select the
VNE Scheme from the dropdown list. Where more than one scheme
exists in the network, the VNE loads the selected scheme.
The following VNE state fields are displayed in the Initial State area:
• State: The initial state of the VNE, namely, Start, Stop or Maintenance.
By default, this option is set to Stop.
•
Stop: The VNE is not loaded.
•
Start: The VNE is loaded and starts collecting data.
•
Maintenance: The VNE is started and moved to maintenance mode,
this means that no alarms will be sent. For more information, refer to
page 88.
The following fields are displayed in the Location area of the General tab:
• DNA Unit: The IP address of the Sheer DNA Unit that hosts the VNE’s
AVM.
• AVM: The AVM on the Sheer DNA Unit that hosts the VNE.
