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

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.

• Default boot option is to boot the NAM 4.0 image from disk.

• Default bootloader file to be used on subsequent boot: primary or secondary

Note Primary causes the application to launch normally.

Secondary causes the application to start the primary bootloader; the primary bootloader then
checks the secondary bootloader location and, if it finds the secondary bootloader and if the
checksum is correct, uses the secondary bootloader.

Example:

ServiceEngine bootloader> config
IP Address [10.100.20.81] >
Subnet mask [255.255.255.0] >
TFTP server [10.107.150.30] >
Gateway [10.100.20.80] >
