Can i install Cisco prime infrastructure 1.3 with 1.1 license.

Can i install Cisco prime infrastructure 1.3 with 1.1 license.To be more precise it will be fresh installation
but the licenses I have is of 1.1.As per my overview from Cisco prime Infrastructure 1.2 NCS and NCS(WAN)
has been bundled into one service.But both were seperate entities in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1.

It doesn't matter if you want to make a new installation or an upgrade. The questions is the license.
The base license is necessary for network management nodes (devices). But to get updates for your system you need the additional to your Base License the Lifecycle License (which can be ordered for 12, 24 or 36 months).
The Lifycycle License is also based on the number of managed devices. In your case 50 devices. So you have that License - congratulations!
Otherwise order the Lifecycle License for 50 devices (L-N-PI12-50-M). This generates CON-PSUU-PI12LF50 for 12 months, list price 414,81$. Then Upgrade from 1.1 to 1.2, patch the system and upgrade to 1.3.
Have fun,
Chris

Cisco Network Control System software

As far as I know, the NCS is an appliance. But today some people told me that he has a copy of Cisco's Network Control System software. I am confused. If what he said is true, can I install the software on the Windows platforms like Win2003 or Win2008?
Thanks in advance.

Prime network control system appliance (NCS)

Hi,
i have a new cisco prime network control system appliance (NCS)
I completed the initial installation however post installation it performed a reboot and is now stuck at Init Level 3.
I have restarted the machine several time but the same result.

Umm a new appliance should have had the application pre-installed. Were you upgrading?
In either case, you'll probably need to open a TAC case. Even without Smartnet you should have at least 90-day warranty support

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 with SNMPv3

Dears,
I am trying to add a router on Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 using snmpv3 (authpriv, sha & aes256). When i go to device work center and add a device, i cannot find the AES-256 in the privacy options. Only None, DES, and AES-128 are available.
Is there any workarround?
Please advise.
Moustafa

PI only supports SNMP privacy up through AES-128 at this time. Reference the guide section on adding an new SNMP credential entry.
Additionally there is a bug with SNMP v3 support in PI 1.2. It should be resolved in PI 1.3.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 and Cisco ASA

Hello,
We've recently installed trial version of Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 Express. We hoped that it already supports Cisco ASA 55xx series (especially 5505, we have pretty amount of them). But we had some problems with PI and asa durind the exploitation process.
First, I've added ASA to PI, and Inventory Collection Status is Completed, but I can't see CPU and RAM utilization graphs. Inventory.logs are non-informative.
Also, config backup is success, but when I try to watch the backuped configuration at Configuration Archive PI says "Failed to fetch raw configuration". And so on.
ASA version is 5505, image is 9.1(2).
So, I have a question: is it possible to manage ASAs with PI 2.0?
UPD: I've just tried to upgrade asa to 9.1(4), and behavior of the equipment is quite the same. Seems we shall wait for 9.2 to be released.

Have you downloaded and applied the latest Device Pack updates?
PI enhanced ASA support after the initial 2.0 release and the Device Packs incorporate that change.
The README file for Device Packs explains how to install them. (A bug currently does not allow the direct download in PI so you need to follow the method for installation from local storage after you manually download. Here is a link to the download location.

Managing Prime Infrastructure 1.2 with MS IAS Radius

HI,
I have configured the PI 1.2il MS IAS radius server to authenticate machine with the management domain credentials.
When I needed to migrate the atuthenticatione from local to radius mode and I went to AAA and I select "with Radius server."
On the MS IAS I imported the tasks for users with role lobby ambassador and when I turned on the authentication mode in PI 1.2 with AAA Radius Server, the user was able to authenticate properly.
When I imported Admin or Root tasks on the server could not let the user management interface in Prime.
there is a documentation update?
Regards
Andrea

I wrote about this some time ago. Its based on NPS but you should be able to tweak it for IAS as well.

Cisco Prime Network Control System Health Monitor Reflected XSS

Apologies for the n00b question,
I am a security manager not a Cisco guru so please bear with me
Our Nessus scanner has picked this vulnerability up
Nessus states that there is no fix
Looking on Cisco's bug search the status is set to fixed,
https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCud18375
I found this article on Cisco's website
Multiple Vulnerabilities in the WLSE Appliance - Cisco 2011-12-10
There are two vulnerabilities that exist in the CiscoWorks Wireless LAN Solution Engine (WLSE). The first is a cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that may allow an attacker to gain administrative privileges on the system. The second is a local privilege escalation vulnerability that can be used by an attacker who already has authenticated access to the command line interface to obtain access to the underlying operating system. Cisco has made free software available to address this vulnerability for affected customers. This advisory is available at http://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20060419-wlse
Is WLSE part of WCS or am I grasping at straws here? Our techies don't seem to think so
We are currently running CISCO Wireless Controller System (WCS) running on Version 7.0.240.0 which is end of life
Is there an upgrade path for newer software?
Has anyone else encountered this issue
http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/830316

1. Its possible but some sort of lock/bug is preventing the removal of the controller. Is the controller reachable? Have you attempted to restart NCS to see if you are able to remove the controller afterwards?
2. 8510 not supported on NCS, you must upgrade to Cisco Prime 1.3.x or higher.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/1.3/release/notes/cpi_rn_13.html#wp86690
3. Follow the upgrade steps for all information regarding patches and migration path:

Prime Infrastructure 2.2 with Nexus 5672UP

Hi
I was wondering if anyone have managed to add Nexus 5672UP devices in Prime Infrastructure 2.2?
I noticed that it is not in the device supported list of 2.2.
I did however notice that the device is supported with Update Pack 7 in PI 2.1
Was wondering if one could load Update Pack 7 for PI 2.1 for PI 2.2 or if there is an update pack for PI 2.2 that includes this device?

Hi ,
Device Type: Nexus 5672UP
SYSOID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.12.3.1.3.1410
This device will be supported by first or second week of Feb.
Thanks-

Integrating SAP HCM with third party Access Control System

Hi Experts,
We have client using SAP HCM and intend procuring an Access Control Solution to manage her people.
What the client wants to avoid though is having to create a new employee in SAP HCM and manually creating same in the Access Control Software. Is there a way this can be automated such that upon recruitment of new staff, the data is updated in the Access Control DB which uses MS SQL? If this is possible, what is required to get this working well.
Thanks for your support in this regard.
Regards
John

For time management with the help of transaction pt80 you can download the information about employees with the help of idoc. And there are some programs a.k.a connectors that link access control systems and SAP so that you do not hire the same employee in the access control problem. You hire the employee in SAP and SAP sends the information (HR Minimaster DATA) to the related program.
It is also do the same thing for the employees who resign. I mean if an employee is fired or resigned from the company than it is sent to the related system.
These can be found under PDC integrated systems. You can find information about the systems from Ecohub. http://ecohub.sap.com/
I hope this answer will help.

Create a user on Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 with a script ?

Hello, we have a visiting software that does not support Cisco Prime configuration.
I was thinking that maybe I can write a script or something like that to create a Wireless User Account when a visitor signs in at our reception.
Grabbing the login information from the database and then creating the account on the Cisco Prime.
The script will run on another computer so a VBScript or something like that would be best.
Is this possible ?
I have googled for hours now and have found the API site but cannot make sense of it.
I know how to get the information but inserting it in the Cisco Prime is what I am having trouble with.
Could anyone here help me with an example or steer me in the right direction to learn how to do this ?

Hi Hansruedi,
Thanks you for your help and your time.
I followed your recomandation until the fourth step.
But after this step, I lost the web page connection.
I check nsc status but all is running :
NMS still stopped. NMS must be running to have an access by web page ?
I restart Prime (by reload command) but nothing changed.
Thanks

Cisco Prime Network Control System (NCS) - Reports

Hiya Supporters !
Just wonder how to make a report showing me which AP's in my setup that NEVER have any associated clients on, and/or over a given period of time, like 1 or months.
seems like I can get some reports under :
reports - report launch pad - clients
but i can not get clients count = 0 by "AP name"
anyone know how ?
I use WLC's versions 7.0.116 and NCS 1.0.2.29 appliance on ESX

mbilgrav,
There is a command on the NCS CLI that looks interesting:
# ncs db reinitdb
wilab-ncs/admin# ncs db ? reinitdb Reinitialize NCS database by dropping all the tables
DISCLAIMER: I'm not a database guy, I've never used this command, and I have no idea what the ramifications are (I've searched and haven't found much). If you do decide to try it, snapshot/backup first and proceed at your own risk.
UPDATE: Curiousity got the best of me and I ran this command on my own lab NCS. I can confirm that this wipes out the NCS database completely and dumps you back to defaults. All user accounts except root are deleted, along with maps, devices and settings. The only thing that appears to be preserved is licensing. So... this could be useful if you wanted to re-attempt a WCS database migration: You could delete the offending AP entry within WCS first, then migrate your db over to NCS and presumably it would import without this AP record. That's assuming you came over from WCS in the first place, which I don't think you mentioned.
Other than that, you could try TAC. It sounds like a corrupt database entry or a bug to me, so maybe they can give you a sql query that will clear it out from the CLI or something.
If it were my system, I would snapshot/backup the 1.0 installation and then upgrade to 1.1. If you don't like the upgrade or if it breaks anything, you can restore your 1.0 snapshot.
Please let us know if/how you are able to resolve the issue.

Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express Compatibility with Cisco Unified Communications Manager Release 8.X

I have a customer that would like to upgrade CUCM to either 7.1 or 8.0 and has Meeting Place Express.
In trying to establish compatability I found this link: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/compat/ccmcompmatr.html#wp56211 which shows compatabilty up to CUCM 7.0.
If CUCM 7.0 is in fact the highest version supported with MPE 2.1(1.2), that would mean that they would loose their conferencing server.
Can anyone confirm if there will be MPE support for CUCM 7.1 or 8?
Thank you.

7.1 is still supported, however 8.X was never tested with MPE as it was already going to be replaced with MP.
Since the BU never tested it, it falls under not supported, MP8 is supported with CUCM 8.
But, since it uses a standard H323 trunk it should work fine.

User Name and Password for Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1

Hi all:
I am stuck at the login page of Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1.
I have tried using the user name root and its password (when log in with root at Vsphere Client) and also the login user name "before" get into the appliance infrastructure, all cannot work.
Anybody knows what is the default username or password or any way to set the username and password for this Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 website?
Thanks!
tangsuan

Hi Tangsuan,
Following is the documented procedure for password recovery..
In order to modify the GUI root user password, you will need to login to the NCS CLI
as an admin user, and enter the command
"ncs password root password <new password>" (without the quotes)
This should set the web interface root user password :
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/ncs/1.1/configuration/guide/manag.html#wp1268889
If you have lost your CLI password , try the default logging that is ,
CLI user is admin and not root, so please try logging in as admin with
the password that was set during setup. If that does not work , you need
the install disk that came with the appliance to recover that password.
Follow these steps:
Recovering a Lost Admin Password
If you lose or forget the admin password for NCS appliance, follow these steps.
Step 1 Reboot the NCS appliance with the ISO DVD inserted. The Cisco Prime Network Control
System Welcome screen appears:
ISOLINUX 3.11 2005-09-02 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H. Peter Anvin

<Enter> Boot existing OS from Hard Disk.
Enter boot option and press <return>.
boot:
Step 2 Select the desired recovery option, 3 or 4, depending on how you
are connected to the appliance and then follow the prompts.
