Cisco Branch Routers Series Network Analysis Module (NME-NAM-120S) Installation and Configuration Note, 4.0
OL-14942-02 Revised Date: October 29, 2009
The Cisco Network Analysis Module (NAM) is an integrated module that enables network managers to understand, manage, and improve how applications and services are delivered to end-users. The NAM offers flow-based traffic analysis of applications, hosts, and conversations, performance-based measurements on application, server, and network latency, quality of experience metrics for network-based services such as voice over IP (VoIP) and video, and problem analysis using deep, insightful packet captures. The Cisco NAM includes an embedded, web-based Traffic Analyzer GUI that provides quick access to the configuration menus and presents easy-to-read performance reports on Web, voice, and video traffic.
The NME-NAM-120S is the most recent NAM model offered for the branch routers. The NAM software runs on the NAM and is is directly reachable as an end-station and includes its own SNMP agent, HTTP server and command-line interface (CLI). The NAM software communicates with the IOS software on the router.
Table 1 lists the different NAM models.
Note This document specifically addresses the NAM NAM 4.0 software installation and configuration with
the NME-NAM-120S, but also supports the NM-NAM, NME-NAM, and the NME-NAM-80S. There are some exceptions noted for NM-NAM commands.

Restrictions for the NME-NAM-120S

slot—Number of the router chassis slot for the module. After you install the module, you can get this information from the router’s show running-config command output and look for interface Integrated-Service-Engine.
Note You need this information for the “Setting Up Network Module Interfaces” section on page 7
and the “Closing a Session” section on page 11.

File Server

Verify that your download FTP or TFTP file server is accessible:
FTP file server—Use for installations, backups, and restores.
TFTP file server—Use (on the FTP-file-server machine) for boothelper operations to recover from a failed installation.
Restrictions for the NME-NAM-120S
The following restrictions currently exist for NAM 4.0 and the NME-NAM-120S.
Upgrade or Downgrade
Configuration
Monitoring Traffic Through Internal Interface
Warning
The NAM module is not hot swappable. You must shutdown and turn off power to the router before inserting or removing an NAM module.

Upgrade or Downgrade

You can upgrade or downgrade NAM software in a production environment. Although the NAM will not be operational during the upgrade or downgrade procedure, the router should remain fully operational. Downloading the NAM software image will generate some additional network traffic, but should not affect router operations.

Configuration

You can only configure the NME-NAM-120S initially from a session that is initiated from the router.
After you configure the NME-NAM-120S network parameters, you can enable access to the
software running on the network module using one of the following:
The router’s Cisco IOS CLI
The NME-NAM-120S graphical user interface (GUI), secure-shell (SSH) connection, or telnet connection
SNMP

OL-14942-02

Monitoring Traffic Through Internal Interface

Note The following restriction applies only to traffic that is monitored through the internal NAM interface.
The NAM Traffic Analyzer (web GUI) provides Layer 3 and higher layer information about the original packets. The Layer 2 header is modified by the router when it forwards the packets to the NAM, so the Layer 2 information that the NAM records is not applicable to the original packets.

NAM Software

The NAM software application resides on a network module that plugs into a host Cisco router running Cisco IOS software.
The network module is a standalone service engine with its own startup and run-time configurations that are independent of the Cisco IOS configuration on the router. The module does not have an external console port. Instead, you launch and configure the module through the router, by means of a configuration session on the module. After the session, you return to the router CLI and clear the session.
NAM Software
This arrangement—host router plus network module (the latter is also sometimes called an appliance or blade or, with installed software, a service or services engine)—provides a router-integrated application platform for accelerating data-intensive applications including the following and more:
Application-oriented networking
Contact centers and interactive-voice-response applications
Content caching and delivery
Data and video storage
Network analysis
Voice mail and auto-attendant applications

Hardware Interfaces

The host router and network module use several interfaces for internal and external communication (see
Figure 1). Each interface is configurable both from the router by using the Cisco IOS CLI and from the
module by using the module's CLI.
The NME-NAM-120S can monitor traffic on both the external and the internal interface at the same time. However, only one can be used for management traffic.

How to Install, Upgrade, or Downgrade NME-NAM-120S

Upgrading or Reinstalling NAM Software

During software upgrades, you use the Bootloader, a small set of system software that runs when the system first powers up. The Bootloader loads and runs the NAM application. The bootloader might optionally load and run the helper image on flash memory.
Reinstalling software involves installing, configuring, and starting a helper image. The helper, in turn, starts the NAM installation wizard, which installs the software.
Note Plan software upgrades or downgrades for times when you can take all applications that run on the host
router out of service or offline.

NAM Software Images

The NME-NAM-120S contains three NAM software images:
Bootloader image in flash memory—Use to specify whether to boot the NAM application image or
the helper image
Helper image in flash memory—Use to recover or upgrade NAM software images
NAM application image on the hard drive—Source of the NAM Traffic Analyzer and NAM CLI

Types of NAM Software Upgrades

NAM software upgrades are available in two forms:
Images—Full image releases that are installed from the helper image. Full image upgrades are
typically used to update the NAM application image, and if necessary and recommended by technical support, you can also use the helper image to upgrade the bootloader image or helper image.
Patches—Incremental updates to software versions that are installed with the patch NAM CLI
command. Patches are available only for the NAM application image.
Perform one of the following procedures in this section, depending on whether you are adding a patch to your NAM application or are performing a full software image upgrade:
Upgrading the NME-NAM-120S Application Image (Full Image), page 13
Upgrading the NAM Application Image — Patch, page 16

Prerequisites

Download the NAM software image from Cisco.com
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/nme-nam
Copy the image to an FTP server.
(Optional) Have available the IP address of your TFTP file server.

Disabling AAA Login Authentication on the NAM Console Line

If you configured authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) on your router, then you might have to log in twice to open a NAM console session from the router: first with your AAA username and password, and second with the NAM login and password.
If you do not want to log in twice to open a NAM console session from the router, then disable AAA login authentication on the router’s NAM console line by performing this procedure.
Note, however, that if your router contains both the NME-NAM-120S and the NM-CIDS, the Cisco intrusion detection system network module, then AAA can be a useful tool for centrally controlling access to both network modules. For information about AAA, see the Cisco IOS Security Configuration
Guide for your Cisco IOS release.

To change the NAM root password, see the “Changing the NAM Root Password” section on page 43.

Opening and Closing a Telnet or SSH Session to the NAM

This procedure opens and closes a Telnet or SSH session to the NAM. This procedure is not commonly performed, because you would typically use the NAM Traffic Analyzer (web GUI) to monitor and maintain the NAM. If, however, you cannot access the NAM Traffic Analyzer, then you might want to use Telnet or SSH to troubleshoot from the NAM CLI.
If your NME-NAM-120S is not properly configured for Telnet or SSH access (see the following
Prerequisites, page 45 section), then you can open a Telnet session to the router in which the
NME-NAM-120S is installed, and then open a NAM console session from the router. See the “Opening
a Session” section on page 10.

Glossary

Glossary
AAA Authentication, authorization, and accounting, pronounced triple A.
access list A list kept by routers to control access to or from the router for a number of
services (for example, to prevent packets with a certain IP address from leaving a particular interface on the router).
AIM Asynchronous interface module. Type of network module.
appliance Alternate term for network module.
ARP Address Resolution Protocol. Internet protocol used to map an IP address to
a MAC address.
blade Alternate term for network module.
boothelper See helper.
bootloader A small set of system software that runs when the system first powers up. It
loads the operating system (from the disk, network, external flash, or external USB flash), which loads and runs the NME-NAM-120S application. The bootloader might optionally load and run the boothelper.
CEF Cisco Express Forwarding
DSMON Differentiated Services Monitoring
Flooding Traffic passing technique used by switches and bridges in which traffic
received on an interface is sent out all the interfaces of that device except the interface on which the information was received originally.
FTP File Transfer Protocol. Application protocol, part of the TCP/IP protocol
stack, used for transferring files between network nodes.
GRE Generic routing encapsulation. Tunneling protocol developed by Cisco that
can encapsulate a wide variety of protocol packet types inside IP tunnels, creating a virtual point-to-point link to Cisco routers at remote points over an IP internetwork. By connecting multiprotocol subnetworks in a single-protocol backbone environment, IP tunneling using GRE allows network expansion across a single-protocol backbone environment.
GUI Graphical user interface. A user environment that uses pictorial as well as
textual representations of the input and the output of applications and the hierarchical or other data structure in which information is stored. Such conventions as buttons, icons, and windows are typical, and many actions are performed using a pointing device (such as a mouse). Microsoft Windows and the Apple Macintosh are prominent examples of platforms using a GUI.
helper (previously known as boothelper)
A small subset of the system software that runs on the module. It boots the module from the network and assists in software installation and upgrades, disaster recovery, and other operations when the module cannot access its software.
OL-14942-02
IP Multicast Routing technique that allows IP traffic to be propagated from one source to
a number of destinations or from many sources to many destinations. Rather than sending one packet to each destination, one packet is sent to a multicast group identified by a single IP destination group address.

Glossary
MIB Management Information Base. Database of network management
information that is used and maintained by a network management protocol, such as SNMP or Common Management Information Protocol (CMIP). The value of a MIB object can be changed or retrieved using SNMP or CMIP commands, usually through a GUI network management system. MIB objects are organized in a tree structure that includes public (standard) and private (proprietary) branches.
NAT Network Address Translation. Mechanism for reducing the need for globally
unique IP addresses. NAT allows an organization with addresses that are not globally unique to connect to the Internet by translating those addresses into globally routable address space. Also known as Network Address Translator.
NetFlow A feature of some routers that allows them to categorize incoming packets
into flows. Because packets in a flow often can be treated in the same way, this classification can be used to bypass some of the work of the router and accelerate its switching operation.
network module Type of network module.
NTP Network Time Protocol. Protocol built on top of TCP that ensures accurate
local time-keeping with reference to radio and atomic clocks located on the Internet. This protocol is capable of synchronizing distributed clocks within milliseconds over long time periods.
PCI Peripheral Component Interconnect. An industry local bus standard.
QoS Quality of Service. Cisco IOS QoS technology lets complex networks control
and predictably service a variety of networked applications and traffic types.
RMON Remote Monitoring. MIB agent specification described in RFC 1271 that
defines functions for the remote monitoring of networked devices. The RMON specification provides numerous monitoring, problem detection, and reporting capabilities.
Service engine Content-networking product (hardware plus software) that accelerates
content delivery, ensuring maximum scalability and availability of content.
Service (or services)
Alternate term for network module with installed application software.
engine
service module Standalone content engine with its own startup and run-time configurations
that are independent of the Cisco IOS configuration on the router.
SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol. Network management protocol used
almost exclusively in TCP/IP networks. SNMP provides a means to monitor and control network devices, and to manage configurations, statistics collection, performance, and security. SNMPv2c supports centralized and distributed network management strategies and includes improvements in the Structure of Management Information (SMI), protocol operations, management architecture, and security. SNMPv3 provides secure access to devices by a combination of authenticating and encrypting packets over the network.

SSH Secure Shell Connection protocol is a protocol that provides a secure remote
connection to a router through a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) application.

Glossary
syslog Industry-standard protocol for capturing log information for devices on a
network.
TCP Transmission Control Protocol. Connection-oriented transport-layer
protocol that provides reliable full-duplex data transmission. TCP is part of the TCP/IP protocol stack.
TFTP Trivial File Transfer Protocol. Simplified version of FTP that allows files to
be transferred from one computer to another over a network, usually without the use of client authentication (for example, username and password).
telnet Network protocol used to make unsecure internet connections to the
application server.
UDP User Datagram Protocol. Connectionless transport-layer protocol in the
TCP/IP protocol stack that exchanges datagrams without acknowledgments or guaranteed delivery, requiring that error processing and retransmission be handled by other protocols.
VoI P Voice over IP. The capability to carry normal telephony-style voice over an
IP-based Internet with POTS-like functionality, reliability, and voice quality. VoIP enables a router to carry voice traffic (for example, telephone calls and faxes) over an IP network. In VoIP, the digital signal processor (DSP) segments the voice signal into frames, which then are coupled in groups of two and stored in voice packets. These voice packets are transported using IP in compliance with ITU-T specification H.323.
