Managing a Catalyst 6000 Family Switch or a
Cisco 7600 Series Internet Router
Managing a Catalyst 6000 family switch or a Cisco 7600 series Internet Router
using CEMF is a two-step process:
1. Deploy objects that need to be managed.
C65/76M objects can be discovered automatically or deployed manually.

Deploying Objects
The deployment process should be done after you install the C65/76M software
for the first time, or after you install new hardware. Deployment informs the C65/
76M of the presence of supported hardware.
The C65/76M objects can be automatically discovered or manually deployed.
Objects can also be predeployed in CEMF before the actual installation of a
Catalyst 6000 family switch or a Cisco 7600 series Internet Router in the field.
Predeployment is the process of reserving a space in CEMF for network
equipment, which has not yet been physically slotted into the system rack. When
an object or device is predeployed,the physical device or object is not present, but
CEMF has been preconfigured to hold an object of similar type. As a result, C65/
76M module objects can be deployed and the C65/76M will not monitor their
status. When a module is then placed in the physical equipment, the new module
will be automatically detected and management of the module will be
automatically started.

Software
The top-level Network Element object represents the entire switch including the
physical and logical components of the switch. The Chassis object, which is a
child of the Network Element object, represents all the physical components of
the switch. For example, the chassis frame, power supplies, modules, and ports
are all represented under the Chassis object. The Software object, which is a peer
of the Chassis object, represents all the logical components of the switch. For
example, VLAN configurations, EtherChannels, and routing protocols are
represented under the Software object.

Catalyst6000Manager, Catalyst6500Manager, and Cisco7600Manager
containment views.

Commissioning Objects
Commissioning is the action required to notify CEMF to start activelymonitoring
the object. Only the following C65/76M objects can be commissioned and
decommissioned by the user:
• Network Element
• Supervisor Module
• Ethernet Module
• Switch Fabric Module
• FlexWAN Module
• Content Switching Module
• Port Adapter
• OSM Module
When applied to these objects, the commissioning process is propagated down to
all the object’s children. For example, if the Network Element object is
commissioned, all the C65/76M objects are also commissioned. If only a
Supervisor Module object is commissioned,then its Ethernet Interface objects are
also commissioned.
When the Network Element object is commissioned, a subchassis discovery is
started to determine the contents of the switch. If objects on the switch are
discovered that do not currently exist in CEMF, then these objects are
automatically created and populated. For example, an Ethernet module would be
automatically populated with the appropriate number of interfaces when it is
discovered. If the object already exists in CEMF, then a type match is made
against the CEMF object and the one found during discovery. If a mismatch is
found, the object is placed into the Mismatched state and an error is generated. If
there is no mismatch, then the object is commissioned successfully and CEMF
begins to monitor it.
Figure 4-1 shows the CEMF Map Viewer application with the C65/76M software
installed. When an object is deployed in CEMF, the objects are automatically
added to the Network, Physical, and the appropriate Manager Views. In this
example, the Network Element objects are called “may” and “morar,”the Chassis
objects are called “may-Chassis” and “morar-Chassis,” and the Software objects
are called “may-Software” and “morar-Software.”

Deployment and Commissioning Process
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.

IP Auto Discovery
The CEMF Auto Discoveryapplication is used to search an existingnetwork. The
network is examined for IP and SNMP devices. An object is created for each new
device discovered. The IP discovery window can be launched from either the
Discoveryicon from the CEMF Launchpad (Figure 3-2) or from the Deployment/Auto Discovery... pop-up menu item on a selected object as shown in Figure 4-2.

The contents of this window depend on how the window was launched. For
example, if this window was launched from an object in the physical containment
view, then the Physical Location parameter would be automatically set to the
location from which the window was launched, as shown in Figure 4-3. For more
information on the CEMF Auto Discovery process, refer to the “Auto Discovery”
chapter of the CEMF 3.1 Users Guide.
Cisco 6500/7600 Manager User Guide
OL-2209-01
Chapter 4Deploying the C65/76M
NoteWhen specifying the SNMP community string, use the read-write community
string for the switch. If the read community string is used or appears first in
the list of community strings, then that will be the SNMP community string
used for both the read and read-write operations by the C65/76M. As a result,
set operations will fail.
After the discovery process is complete, newly discovered objects will be
automatically added to the Network containers and Physical containers. In the
Network container, the object will be placed under the appropriate subnet. In the
Physical container, discovered objects will be placed in the location based on the
value of the Physical Location parameter.
If one of the discovered devices is a Catalyst 6000 family switch or a Cisco 7600
series Internet Router, then a C65/76M Network Element object will also be
added into the Network containers, Physical containers, and the appropriate
Manager Views. The Software object is also automatically added to the Manager
View. In Figure 4-4, the Network Element object is labelled “192.168.12.105”
and the Software object is labelled “192.168.12.105-Software.”

After the Network Element and Software objects have been created by the Auto
Discovery process, their contents need to be determined. This determination is
made by commissioning the Network Element object. When theNetworkElement
object is commissioned, it executes a subchassis discovery process that
communicates with the switch to automatically determine the contents of the
switch.
However, before the Network Element object can be commissioned, additional
parameters are required. Specifically, the Telnet and Enable passwords and the
SNMP communities are required. To specify the passwords and SNMP
communities, right-click on the Network Element object (192.168.12.105 in
Figure 4-4) and choose Open Network Element Dialog from the pop-up menu,
which will launch a window that resembles Figure 4-5.

When the dialog box is displayed, select the Configuration tab. In the CLI
Passwords section, specify the TelnetPasswordandEnable Password parameters.
The Telnet Password is the password used to connect to the switch using the
Telnet protocol. The Enable Password is the password used to enter the enable
mode on the switch or router. All values entered in these text fields will be
displayed as “*”.
To specify the SNMP read and write community strings, select the SNMP tab and
enter the correct SNMP read/write community strings.
NoteThe IP Discovery process only fills in the SNMP community strings based on
the version of SNMP discovered on the switch or router. In Figure 4-6, the
read and read-write community strings are specified as public and private,
respectively, because “private” was specified in the IP Discovery window
(see Figure 4-3). The community string used in the IP Discovery window
should be the read-write SNMP community.

If an error is encountered when the object is commissioned, the Network Element
object might go into the Mismatched or Lostcomms state and an alarm would be
raised.
The Network Element is placed inthe Mismatched state if the IP address specified
during the deployment wizard does not correspond to the device type that was
deployed. If this occurs, the Network Element object must be deleted from CEMF
and redeployed with the correct IP address or type.
The Network Element is placed in the Lostcomms state if the SNMP read
community string specified in during the deployment wizard is incorrect. If this
occurs, open the Network Element dialog box, decommission the Network
Element object, go to the SNMP tab (Figure 4-6) and enter the correct SNMP read
community, and then recommission the Network Element object.

Predeployment
This deployment option is used to deploy the Catalyst 6000 family switch or
Cisco 7600 series Internet Router into CEMF before it has been attached to the
network. After an object has been predeployed, CEMF keeps the object in a
decommissioned state until the device corresponding to the object is added to the
network. After the switch is brought on-line, the predeployed object will be
commissioned automatically. The following objects can be predeployed:
• Network Element, Software and Chassis
• Supervisor Modules
• Ethernet Modules
• Switch Fabric Modules
• FlexWAN Modules
• Port Adapter
• Content Switching Module
• EtherChannel Modules
The remaining C65/76M objects are automatically discovered when the Network

Chapter 4Deploying the C65/76M
Commissioning Predeployed Objects
A predeployed Network Element and subobjects are commissioned automatically
when a coldStart SNMP trap that is issuedfrom the switch or the router is received
by the CEMF server.
NoteFor the automatic commissioning to work, the switch or router must be
configured to send SNMP traps and the CEMF server host must be in the trap
client list.
The subchassis discovery task is executed during commissioning. The discovery
task does the following:
• Verifies the predeployed objects.
• If a mismatch between the predeployed object and the discovered object
exists, then the predeployed object is placed in a Mismatched state. For
example, if a Supervisor Engine 2 MSFC2 is predeployed but a Supervisor
Engine 1A MSFC2 is discovered, the Supervisor Module object will be
placed in a Mismatched state. If the wrong object was predeployed, delete the
object and recommission the Network Element. If the wrong module was
inserted in the switch or router, insert the correct module and recommission
the object.
• Checks for switch or router components that were not predeployed. Any
objects that are discovered will be created and commissioned automatically.
• Automatically creates and commissions the remaining C65/76M objects.
These objects include the power supply and all of the logical objects.
If the coldStart trap is not received by the CEMF server when the switch is first
brought on-line, then the predeployed Network Element object needs to be
commissioned manually by opening the Network Element dialog box and
selecting the Commission button (see Figure 4-15).
