EM Software Features

Installed with Cisco EMF, the EM allows for precise management of the device(s) it supports through custom GUI windows and modeling behavior. Invoked from the Cisco EMF Map Viewer application, the EM provides Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, and Security (FCAPS) windows on chassis, module, interface, and connection levels as applicable. These windows provide the features which compliment the Cisco EMF capabilities to provide for complete, efficient network management.
Specifically, the Cisco Access Router Manager supports related routers as well as various modules including ATM, ethernet, SONET, and IP modules. Element management capabilities for these items are provided in windows and wizards, eliminating the need for operators to have detailed Cisco IOS software and SNMP–based knowledge for individual interface or system parameter commands.
The following features highlight the capabilities of the EM:
FrameworkBased on Cisco EMF 3.2, which includes FCAPS management tools
IOS VersionsSee the corresponding release note document for specific versions supported
Deployment and DiscoveryAllows for manual or automatic deployment and discovery
DeploymentSupports manual deployment for generic objects, and pre–deployment of chassis objects using templates which provide faster deployment with fewer errors
EM Software Features
Auto DiscoveryDiscovers chassis and all submodules automatically within a given IP range, providing real–time information regarding the contents of the network
SynchronizationSynchronizes the physical inventory model with managed NEs, providing
accurate, real–time information on what is deployed in the network
Fault management—Provides status information, as well as fault detection, troubleshooting, and
repair tools
ConfigurationProvides base configuration for managed objects within the device, as well as:
DiscoveryAllows for discovery of individual chassis and modules, or complete subchassis discovery
AccountingProvides realtime inventory information
Performance—Supplies real–time performance–related statistics as well as capabilities to log
historical performance data for analysis
SecurityProvides capabilities to manage system security at the EM or device level

Chapter 1 Overview

Server and Client Installation

The EM can be deployed in a distributed manner to utilize the power of multiple machines. Two types of deployment are available: server and client. Server and client installations, however, cannot run on the same workstation. You can install either a server or a client on one machine, but not both.
Note that the EM installation type, server or client, must match that of the installed Cisco EMF software.
Note For information regarding Cisco EMF server and client deployment, see the Cisco Element Management
Framework Installation and Administration Guide at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/sw/netmgtsw/ps829/products_installation_and_configur ation_guide_book09186a00800ffd0d.html
Server and client installations are described in the following sections:
Server Installation
Client Installation
Server and Client Installation

Server Installation

Every EM deployment must have a server installed. Processes on the server keep track of the current state of the network model, user access, and events.

Client Installation

EM deployment allows for client installations on separate workstations. The client installations run EM applications that access objects on the server. A client installation contains only those parts of the EM software necessary to run a user session. The user session communicates with the server when required to retrieve management information. When management information is retrieved, all window updates are processed locally on the client machine, freeing resources on the manager to process network information.
The client installation copies the client software onto the local machine; therefore, there is no need to mount files across the network. Network traffic occurs only when the client requires more data from the server.
The server installation includes all files that run a user session on the server system. The EM can therefore be installed on a single system with server and client functionality, and can be upgraded by adding separate client machines later as necessary.

Installing the EM from a Remote CD–ROM Drive

Installing the EM from a Remote CD–ROM Drive
To install the EM software on a system that does not have its own CD–ROM drive, proceed as follows:
Tip EM installation is significantly faster when Cisco EMF is not initialized. Before beginning the
installation process, you can determine if Cisco EMF is initialized. For additional information, see the
“Checking the Status of the EM” section on page 5-2. If Cisco EMF is initialized, you can choose to exit
the application accordingly. For more details, see the “Stopping a User Session” section on page 5-4.
Step 1 Insert the EM CD–ROM into the CD–ROM drive of the remote host.
Step 2 Log in as a root user on the remote host.
Step 3 Verify if the Volume Manager is running by entering the following:
/usr/bin/ps -ef | grep vold
If the Volume Manager is running, a message similar to the following displays:
root 591 1 0 Feb 26 ? 0 :01 /usr/sbin/vold
Or, if the Volume Manager is not running, start the Volume Manager by entering the following:
/etc/rc2.d/S92volmgt start
Step 4 Export the CD–ROM device to the remote host:
a. If the NFS–related daemons are not already running, start them by entering the following:
/usr/lib/nfs/nfsd 8 /usr/lib/nfs/mountd
b. Share the mount point from the remote host by entering the following:
share -F nfs -o ro /cdrom/cdrom0
c. Verify that the remote host has made the CD–ROM drive accessible by entering the following:
share
The listing which displays includes the /cdrom mount point.
Step 5 Mount the remote CD–ROM on the local host (where the EM will be installed):
a. Create a mount point if none exists already by entering the following:
mkdir /mnt/cdfiles
b. Mount the remote directory, by entering the following:
mount -r remote-host:/cdrom/cdrom0 /mnt/cdfiles
Replace remote-host with the host name of the remote device.
OL-3598-02
The contents of the CD–ROM should now be visible under the /mnt/cdfiles mount point.
Step 6 Navigate to the mount directory by entering the following:
cd /mnt/cdfiles
To continue the installation, proceed to Step 3 in the following section.
Cisco Access Router Manager Installation Guide

Installing the EM

Installing the EM
After you install Cisco EMF (and the required patches) and acquire a valid license, you can install Cisco Access Router Manager using the appropriate install script.
Note For details on installing Cisco EMF, see the Cisco Element Management Framework Installation and
Administration Guide at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/sw/netmgtsw/ps829/products_installation_and_configur ation_guide_book09186a00800ffd0d.html
The install script can be used for first–time installations as well as upgrades to previously installed versions. Before loading the software, the Cisco Access Router Manager install script checks the system for existing packages. If an existing package is found, the script compares the existing version to the version on the CD. If the version on the CD is more recent, the previously installed version is upgraded. If the version on the CD is older than the installed version, no system change occurs. If an existing package is not found, the version on the CD is installed.
Chapter 2 Installing the EM
Tip EM installation is significantly faster when Cisco EMF is not initialized. Before beginning the
installation process, you can determine if Cisco EMF is initialized. For additional information, see the
“Checking the Status of the EM” section on page 5-2. If Cisco EMF is initialized, you can choose to exit
the application accordingly. For more details, see the “Stopping a User Session” section on page 5-4.
Step 1 Log in as a root user.
Step 2 Insert the Cisco Access Router Manager CD–ROM and make the CD–ROM area your working directory
by entering the following:
cd /cdrom/cdrom0
Step 3 Run the install script by entering the following:
./CAccessRouterMGRinstall
The installation script automatically detects what type of Cisco EMF installation exists (server or client) and whether or not Cisco EMF is initialized.
If the Cisco EMF server package is installed, depending on whether the package has been initialized, the terminal window lists one of these possible options:
Cisco Access Router Manager Server - (CEMF initialization required)
Cisco Access Router Manager Server - (No CEMF initialization required)
If the Cisco EMF client package is installed, depending on whether the package has been initialized, the terminal window lists one of these possible options:
2-4
Cisco Access Router Manager Client - (CEMF initialization required)
Cisco Access Router Manager Client - (No CEMF initialization required)
Because the EM installation must match that of Cisco EMF, if the Cisco EMF server is installed, then the EM client install will be incompatible and vice versa. The script hides the incompatible options on the terminal window. Furthermore, the script detects whether Cisco EMF is currently running and hides the invalid option.
The following depicts an example of a terminal window which would display when the Cisco EMF server package exists on a workstation and Cisco EMF is not initialized.
Cisco Access Router Manager Installation Guide
OL-3598-02
Chapter 2 Installing the EM
INSTALL PACKAGE:
1) Cisco Access Router Manager Server—(No CEMF Initialization Required)
q) Quit
Which package do you wish to install? (Def:1) [?,q]
Tip Enter ? for help or q to quit.
Step 4 Choose the appropriate installation option.
The utility determines the package upgrade and install list. For first time EM installations, all associated EM packages and the selected EM component (e.g., CARMGR for server installation or CARMGR for client installation) must be installed. If an earlier version of the EM exists on the workstation, only those packages that are out of date or missing will install. A listing of the redundant packages that will not install displays. Next, the installation option selected displays followed by a prompt used to specify the interface polling rate if installing a server.
The interface polling rate is the interval in which the installed software performs heartbeat polling on managed interface objects. The default interface polling rate is listed as the associated EM package version and is necessary when Cisco Access Router Manager is installed with other coresident EMs. The default interface polling rate occurs at the 5–minute interval.
Installing the EM
Should you want to improve system performance, you can choose to install the EM customized interface polling rate. This is the recommended option for non–coresident systems. The EM customized interface polling rate modifies the default interface heartbeat polling rate from a 5–minute interval to a 15–minute interval. Furthermore, the revised rate is extended for interface objects in the errored or lostcommspoll states. Interface objects in these two states are polled at a 30–minute interval under the customized rate.
The interface polling options presented are as follows.
Please choose from the following:
1) Use default interface polling rate for co–residency purpose.
2) Use EM customized interface polling rate for better performance.
Which option do you wish to choose? [1 2]:
Step 5 Enter the appropriate polling rate option at the prompt (1 or 2).
A confirmation prompt for the selected installation parameters appears as follows:
Do you want to proceed with the installation [yes]?
Step 6 Enter the appropriate confirmation at the prompt (yes or no).
The entry of no cancels the installation procedure and returns you to the previous installation terminal window, while yes proceeds with the installation of all components listed.
You cannot select individual components for installation.
As installation of each package takes place, the following displays:
Installation of <package name> was successful.
OL-3598-02
At the completion of the installation, the following displays:
The option install “installation option” was completed successfully.
The interface polling rate configuration option selected in Step 5 is verified and listed with installation results.

Configuring the System

Configuring the system involves the following steps:
Configuring the Device, page 2-7
Enabling Traps on the Device, page 2-8
Setting Up a Workstation as a TFTP Server, page 2-9

Configuring the Device

To enable the EM to communicate with routers, certain configuration tasks must be performed. Until these configuration tasks are completed, the EM cannot contact routers and no management can begin.
Before you can start using the EM to manage the supported Cisco routers, you must meet the following requirements:
PasswordCurrent privileged command password must be configured
EthernetManagement Ethernet port must be configured
Configuring the System
SNMPRouter and interfaces must be SNMP–manageable
Tel n e t Router should accept a Telnet session
To meet these requirements, perform the following tasks from a console window, as appropriate.
Step 1 If there is no current privileged command password, enter commands as follows:
Router> enable Router# configure terminal Router (config)# enable password Enable Password
Step 2 If the router does not have a configured management Ethernet port, enter commands as follows:
Router> enable Password: Enable Password Router# configure terminal Router (config)# interface interface type Router (config-if)# ip address Address Netmask Router (config-if)# exit Router (config)# exit Router#
Step 3 To enable access to the device, enter commands as follows:
Router (config)# ip default-gateway <gateway IP (#.#.#.#)> Router (config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 (gateway IP) Router (config)# exit Router#
OL-3598-02
The Sun machine running the EM should now be able to ping the router.
Step 4 If the router is not SNMP–manageable, enter commands as follows:
Router> enable Password: Enable Password Router# configure terminal Router (config)# snmp-server community Community String Read Only ro Router (config)# snmp-server community Community String Read Write rw Router (config)# exit
Cisco Access Router Manager Installation Guide

Configuring the System
Step 5 If the router does not currently accept Telnet sessions, enter commands as follows:
Router> enable Password: <Enable Password> Router# configure terminal Router (config)# line vty <vty line #1> <vty line #2> Router (config-line)# password <Telnet Password> Router (config-line)# login Router (config-line)# exit Router (config)# exit Router#
The preceding configuration assumes you have not configured user names in the Cisco IOS software.

Enabling Traps on the Device

EM traps should be enabled so that the router sends traps to the EM server at the appropriate IP address.
To enable traps, proceed as follows:
Chapter 2 Installing the EM
Step 1 Telnet to the router and enter your login password.
Step 2 Enter the following:
enable
Step 3 Enter the enable password.
Step 4 Enter the following:

Setting Up a Workstation as a TFTP Server

Configuring a TFTP server enables the Configuration Backup/Restore to operate. Setting up a workstation as a TFTP server is described in the following sections:
Using Another Machine as a TFTP Server
Setting Up TFTP
Enabling the TFTP Daemon
Creating the tftpboot Directory
Using Another Machine as a TFTP Server
Configuring the EM server as a TFTP server is optional. You can alternatively choose to use a different machine as the TFTP server, or not use the backup/restore functionality at all. If you choose to use another workstation as a TFTP server, make sure that backup files are empty. You also need the appropriate permissions set to allow read and write access. Backup files have the filename CARMGRaa.bb.cc.dd, where aa.bb.cc.dd is the IP address of the router. A backup file is created for the active Cisco router.
Configuring the System
When the manager is set up as the TFTP server, the EM ensure that the backup files exist and have the correct permissions.
Setting Up TFTP
TFTP enables you to transfer files to and from remote systems. The EM Configuration Backup/Restore window allows you to back up and restore the EM configuration. TFTP transfers the configuration files from a device to your system through the network.
Verify the following:
DaemonTFTP daemon is enabled
EnvironmentTFTP environment variable is set correctly
Directorytftpboot directory exists
Enabling the TFTP Daemon
The TFTP daemon must be enabled in order for the EM to upload or download a configuration file. If you are using standard Sun software, verify that the TFTP daemon (tftpd) is enabled as follows:
Step 1 Log in as a root user.
Step 2 Edit the /etc/inetd.conf file using a text editor (such as vi).
Step 3 Look in the /etc/inetd.conf file for the line that invokes tftpd. When the line is commented out (starts
with a pound sign # as in the following example), use a text editor to delete the pound sign.
#tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd in.tftpd -s /tftpboot
OL-3598-02
Step 4 Save the changes in the edited file and exit.
Step 5 Reboot the system.
Step 6 Verify that the TFTP daemon is enabled by entering:
netstat -a | grep tftp
Cisco Access Router Manager Installation Guide
2-9
Configuring the System
Output similar to the following appears:
*.tftp Idle
If there is no output, tftpd is not enabled. For additional information on TFTP, refer to the UNIX main pages on tftp and tftpd.
Creating the tftpboot Directory
The tftpboot directory stores configuration files from the EM managed routers. To create the tftpboot directory, do the following:
Step 1 If the tftpboot directory does not exist, enter commands as follows to create the directory:
mkdir /tftpboot
Step 2 Modify the permissions by entering the following:
chmod 777 /tftpboot
Chapter 2 Installing the EM
All users accessing the tftpboot directory will have read, write, and execute permissions.

Chapter 3 Upgrading an Installed EM

Upgrading the EM

After you have ensured that the proper versions of Cisco Access Router Manager and Cisco EMF have been installed on your system, you can initiate the upgrade procedures using an install script.
As part of the upgrade process, the system performs the following steps:
System analysis—Before the upgrade process begins, the install script analyzes the system and
displays related information such as previously installed package versions and package versions required to complete the upgrade process successfully. The script also checks for the current Cisco EMF version and patch levels. The user is alerted if there is a potential problem (either missing information or version incompatibility.)
CEMF backup—This step is optional, but recommended. If upgrading a client machine, this step can
be skipped.
Remove EM and associated EM packagesA customized load script is used to remove packages
when the -o- upgrade option is required.
Cisco EMF patch update—Cisco EMF is stopped, the latest patch is installed, then the Cisco EMF
system is started again.
EM installsThe newest version of the EM is loaded onto the system.
Upgrading the EM
To upgrade the EM using the install script:
Step 1 Ensure you are logged in as a root user on the workstation where the EM package you want to upgrade
is installed.
Step 2 Perform one of the following, as appropriate:
a. Insert the Cisco Access Router Manager CD–ROM and make the CD–ROM area your working
directory by entering the following at a command prompt:
cd /cdrom/cdrom0
b. Navigate to the directory where the EM package is installed by entering the following at a command
prompt:
cd CEMF_Root/bin
(Replace CEMF_ROOT with the name of the directory where Cisco EMF is installed.)
Step 3 Run the install script with the upgrade option by entering the following at a command prompt:
./CAccessRouterMGRinstall -u
The installation script analyzes the system and provides related information. The following depicts an example of the type of data displayed in the command window..
Please wait, Analyzing system...

section on page 5-4.
Removing the EM Package
Removing Packages Using the cemf install Script
You can use the cemf install script to list all the EM packages installed and remove selected packages. The cemf install script removes the shared components and the EM package (e.g., Cisco Access Router Manager and all required components).
Note It is recommended that you remove packages using the cemf install script only if
Cisco Access Router Manager Series Manager is the only EM you currently have installed.
Some options cannot be removed. For example, Cisco EMF cannot be removed until the EM is removed. Dependent software (for example, Cisco Access Router Manager) must be removed before the primary software (in this case, Cisco EMF) can be removed.
Note To remove packages using the cemf install script, see the Cisco Element Management Framework

Removing the EM Package

Removing EM Packages Using the Install Script

You can selectively remove an EM package (e.g., Cisco Access Router Manager server or Cisco Access Router Manager client) using the appropriate install script with the -r command. The -r command allows you to leave the shared components on the system and only remove the EM package (i.e., the associated packages are not removed).
If the Cisco Access Router Manager was installed with the customized interface polling rate and you plan to reinstall the EM for coresident purposes, you must uninstall the EM and all associated packages using the -r -all command. For further information, see the “Removing the EM Package and Associated
Packages” section on page 4-6.
If the Cisco Access Router Manager was installed with the customized interface polling rate and you plan to reinstall the EM with the customized rate at a future time, the following procedure is applicable.
To remove EM packages using the install script:
Step 1 Ensure you are logged in as a root user on the workstation where the EM package you want to remove
is installed.
Step 2 Perform one of the following, as appropriate:
Chapter 4 Uninstalling the EM
a. Insert the Cisco 7000 Series Manager CD-ROM and make the CD-ROM area your working
directory by entering the following at a command prompt:
cd /cdrom/cdrom0
b. Navigate to the directory where the EM package exists by entering the following at a command
prompt:
cd CEMF_Root/bin
(Replace CEMF_ROOT with the name of the directory where Cisco EMF is installed.)
Step 3 Run the intall script by entering the following:
./CAccessRouterMGRinstall -r
A list of all the packages installed appears in a terminal window. The options presented in the terminal window includes Cisco EMF (Server or Client), Cisco EMF patches, and each EM (Server or Client) installed.
If an installed package contains dependencies to other installed packages, the following appears beside the affected option(s):
[cannot be removed]
The following figure is an example of a terminal window which would display during an uninstall when the Cisco EMF server package, Cisco EMF patches, and the Cisco Access Router Manager server package are installed on a workstation.
REMOVE PACKAGE:
1) Cisco Element Manager Framework — Server [cannot be removed]
2) Cisco Access Router Manager Server — (CEMF Initialization Required)

Chapter 4 Uninstalling the EM
Step 4 To uninstall a package, enter the appropriate option at the prompt.
The utility verifies the option selected and a confirmation of the uninstall appears.
If the option entered in the previous step is invalid, the script notifies you of the error, lists the valid option(s), and redisplays the selection prompt. Enter a valid selection and continue.
Step 5 Enter the appropriate confirmation at the prompt (y or n).
The entry of n indicates no and cancels the uninstall procedure and returns you to the previous uninstall terminal window, while an entry of y, indicating yes, proceeds with the uninstall of the selected package.
As the uninstall takes place, the following displays for each package:
Removal of “<package name>” was successful.
At the completion of the installation, the following displays:
The option remove of “uninstall option” was completed successfully.
The EM package is uninstalled (e.g., Cisco Access Router Manager). The associated EM packages, however, remain installed.

Removing the EM Package and Associated Packages

Removing the EM Package and Associated Packages
You can selectively remove an EM package and all associated components using the install script with the -r -all command. The -r -all command does not allow you to leave shared components on the system (i.e., the EM package and all associated components are removed).
To remove an EM including the associated components using the install script:
Step 1 Ensure that you are logged in as a root user on the workstation where the EM and associated packages
you want to remove are installed.
Step 2 Perform one of the following, as appropriate:
a. Insert the Cisco 7000 Series Manager CD-ROM and make the CD-ROM area your working
directory by entering the following at a command prompt:
cd /cdrom/cdrom0
b. Navigate to the directory where the EM package exists by entering the following at a command
prompt:
cd CEMF_Root/bin
(Replace CEMF_ROOT with the name of the directory where Cisco EMF is installed.)
Step 3 Run the install script by entering the following:
./CAccessRouterMGRinstall -r -all
A list of all the packages installed appears in a terminal window. The options presented in the terminal window includes Cisco EMF (Server or Client), Cisco EMF patches, and each EM (Server or Client) installed (e.g., Cisco Access Router Manager). Typically EM packages do not required Cisco EMF initialization, and such information appears beside the relevant option.
If an installed package contains dependencies to other installed packages, the following appears beside the affected option(s):
[cannot be removed]
The following figure is an example of the terminal window displayed during an uninstall when the Cisco EMF server package, Cisco EMF patches, and the Cisco Access Router Manager server package are installed on a workstation.
