Deployment and Commissioning Process
There are three methods that can be used to enable CEMF to monitor a
Catalyst 6000 family switch or a Cisco 7600 series Internet Router:
• IP Auto Discovery
This method should be used to deploy a large number of devices that are
currently connected to the network. This method automatically deploys the
Network Element and Software objects for each Catalyst 6000 family switch
or Cisco 7600 series Internet Router discovered.
• Manual deployment
This method should be used if a small number of devices that are connected
to the network need to be deployed. This method will deploy the Network
Element and Software objects for the Catalyst 6000 family switches or
Cisco 7600 series Internet Routers specified.
• Predeployment
This method should be used to predeploy a device that is not connected to the
network. The following objects can be predeployed:
–
Network Element and Software
–
Chassis
–
Supervisor Modules
–
Ethernet Modules
–
Switch Fabric Modules
–
FlexWAN Modules
–
Port Adapters
–
OSM Modules
The remaining C65/76M objects are automatically discovered when the Network
Element object is commissioned.
