Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 - Third Party NetFlow

Hi,
is it possible to collect on the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 NetFlows from Third Party Devices, like a SonicWALL Firewall?
I mean it is possible to poll SNMP informations from a third party device, so maybe it is also possible to get the NetFlow from this Device?
Best Regards,
Sven K.

Hi Sven,
As per my understanding for 3rd party Only below thing are supported:
The following support level is available with Prime Infrastructure :
• Auto Discovery of a 3rd party Device
• Basic Inventory collection
• Basic lifecycle management of 3rd party device
• Ability to show traps and syslog for 3rd party devices
• Device reachability status polling
• Ability to load new MIBs & to create new monitoring templates
• For both Cisco and any SNMP device
More info is available in the link given below:

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 -- Third Party Devices

Hello,
we are using cisco prime infrastructure 2.0. Is it possible to manage third party devices? (We have a lot of Enterasys Switches)
When i want to Archive the config of the device there is an error --> No Device Package found for the specific device.
It is necessary to install device packages for third party devices? Where can i find and install these packages?
Thx in advance

it seems not to be on the road-map according to the functional /feature comparison between LMS and PI 2.0:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/prod/collateral/netmgtsw/ps6504/ps6528/ps12239/guide_c07-729089.html
...and I doubt it will come (quickly) because config management has a lot of pitfalls and Cisco has a lot to do to get around all of them with their own devices..
However, Inventory Management for third party devices is on the road-map
older version of the document (feature comparison PI 1.2 - LMS 4.2) can be found here:

Cisco Prime Infra 2.2 + Third Party Inventory and configuration backup

Hi All,
I am having a doubt related to Cisco prime solution capability to do a discovery and config backup for non-cisco devices.
Requirement is to use Cisco prime to do a discovery, inventory and take configuration backup for non-cisco devices. Is it something possible out of the box ?
If not possible out of the box, is there any method to do that using any custom API ?
Can we monitor 3rd party( Non-cisco) devices using Cisco Prime 2.2 ?

NetFlow is also supported by these devices Cisco 800, 1700, 1800, 2800, 3800, 6500, 7300, 7600, 10000, CRS-1 and these Catalyst series switches: 45xx, 55xx, 6xxx.
NetFlow export is also supported on other Cisco switches when using a NetFlow Feature Card (NFFC) or NFFC II and the Route Switch Module (RSM), or Route Switch Feature Card (RSFC). However, check whether version 5 is supported, as most switches export version 7 by default.
You can check the below steps to diagnose the issue::
To verify that NetFlow is exported from a device to PI, follow the steps below:
1)   Browse to Administration > Data Sources page. Check the value in column ‘Last Active Time’ for the ‘Device Data Sources’ table. If the table is empty or the value does not represent recent time, then
it is possible that the device is not exporting NetFlow or PI Assurance license is not applied / expired.
2)   Login to PI console ( via SSH) as root user and run the command:
                netstat –an | grep 9991 – Output of this should be like : udp        0      0 :::9991         :::*
                Check the firewall settings on PI server using the command: firewall -L
1)   Check the configuration on an IOS / IOS –XE device. Run the commands
a)   sh running-config | inc destination
1)   This should list the IP address of the PI SERVER ( along with other outputs if any)
b)   sh running-config | inc 9991
1)   This should list at least one entry.
c)   If the above are fine, then verify that the flow monitor, flow exporter and the flow records are correctly configured on the device.
Refer to the URLs below to configure NetFlow export.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 clients and users IPs not detected

Hi all,
I have cisco PI2.2 and discovered all the network and i notified that there are some clients' IPs (Servers or PCs or Laptops or ....) not detected.
please advice what may be the issue ?

Hi,
does anyone happen to know if that problem is fixed? My currently setup looks like this:
1. Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 with updated device pack.
2. Assurance license
3. ASA5510 which has enabled netflow. Netflow is being sent to Cisco Prime 2.1
I do receive netflow raw data within Cisco Prime 2.1 but any graphical display of netflow data is not working. Does anybody has an idea where the problem is? Could it be that the graphical data is only displayed when sending netflow 1, netflow 5 or netflow 7?
regards

New installation of Cisco prime Infrastructure 1.2

Hi,
We installed Cisco prime infrastructure 1.2 and discovered our entire LAN swtiches and core L3 Switches.
In Cisco Prime, we are getting information related to Device and IOS. But intreface ulitilzation information are not avilable.
we used SNMPv2 RW string and and SSH username for discovery.
How to get the interface ulitization data ?

Under Administration > System Settings, then select Monitoring Settings.
i checked the two options
Auto monitoring
Enable deduplication
But after refresh it is show uncheck, i tried in Google Chrome and Firefox.
Is this cause the issue of not polling interface netflow???

After Update Cisco Prime Infrastructure from 1.3 to 2.0 imported floor plans has black background

Hello everybody,
we have updated cisco prime infrastructure from 1.3 to 2.0. When we now import a floor plan (autocad-file, dwg-format), the background from finally image, that is show in prime, is black. Previous imported floor planes has a white background. We also tried to import a previous imported floor plan again, the background is now black. Is there a possibilty to change the background to white? Thanks

Hi,
Look no further, these issues are related to know bugs. It seems that autocad files have multiple issues with PI 2.0, Only feasible way is to convert them to JPGs and import them. Lets hope these will get fixed to the level they where at PI 1.3.
CSCuj63017, PI 2.0 dwg(AutoCAD file) import reports Tailormade is for Demo use only
Symptom:
When dwg files are imported to Prime Infrastructure, they report
"For Demonstration Purposes only
Tailor made software"
Conditions:
Prime Infrastructure - 2.0.0.0.294
Use of dwg (Auto cad) files
Workaround:
None at this time
Further Problem Description:
CSCuj94500, Loading DWG floor maps on PI 2.0 appears in black background
Symptom:
On PI 2.0 when we try to import autoCAD .dwg file to map, the map appears in black background.
Conditions:
On PI 2.0 when we try to import autoCAD .dwg file to map
Workaround:
use 3rd party tool like Draftsight or AutoCAD Trueview to change the file to .jpg and import again to PI, after that the map appear in white background in PI 2.0.
Further Problem Description:
However, the same .dwg file when we imported it to PI 1.3 appear in map with white background.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 and ASA 55xx platform problem

Hello,
We recently upgraded to Prime Infrastructure 2.0 with the hope being able to manage our ASA's from PRIME (and complete an LMS migration).
When I attempt to add ASA's to prime i get the following collection errors:
Unable to collect processor and RAM information.          Processor and RAM information.          Unexpected error. See the log file inventory.log for details.
In the logfile I get the following XML parsing error on the MIB:
<palError>
<deviceId>6284310032</deviceId>
<code>VALIDATION_ERROR</code>
<message>Failed to validate output XML: cvc-maxInclusive-valid: Value '3484331296' is not facet-valid with respect to maxInclusive '2147483647' for type 'int'.</message>

        </MemoryPoolStatistics>
To me it seems that the ASA returns a value that is bigger then int32 and thus causes an overflow? Any clues? Workarounds to add an ASA to Prime without checking these MIB'S?

Marcel

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 is not working https & ncs

Hi, I have just deploy Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 in a virtual appliance (Vmware Esxi 5.1). Console is ok & setup is also completed. but there is no NCS application. only app is shwoing: NCSPNP
Cannot access from https also.
Please suggest how to Starting Prime Infrastructure Serve

From what you describe, it sounds like you have installed the Plug and Play (PNP) ova image. You need to install the Prime Infrastructure image.
See the screenshot below for details (click to enlarge):

What are the features supported in Cisco Prime Infrastructure for WLAN for autonomous AP's?

What are the features supported in Cisco Prime Infrastructure for WLAN for autonomous AP’s?

• PI provides visibility for autonomous clients within the same list view as lightweight and wired clients (client list page).
• Rogue AP detection for autonomous AP's is not supported (it's supported in CUWN).
• Alarms/events for client authentication issues (e.g. authentication failure) are displayed in PI.
• Config management for autonomous AP's is via CLI template. Config comparison and archiving functionality in PI leverages these same features that were brought in from LMS, so need to defer to others in terms of whether this is a cross-platform feature in PI or is only supported on a subset of platforms. Config comparison/archive is supported in CUWN.PI supports both infrastructure (e.g. AP Tx Power and Channel, busiest AP, AP utilization, etc.) and client (e.g. client count, client sessions, etc.) reports, and there are extensive reports for CUWN

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

Step 2 Select the desired recovery option, 3 or 4, depending on how you
are connected to the appliance and then follow the prompts.

When is Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 released, and what does 2.0 offer?

We are running Prime Infrastructure 1.3 primarily for wireless management at this point. We have enough licenses to add all our switches, routers, and firewalls, but we're hesitant to do so until 2.0 comes out. While there are some features for backing up and configuring switches and routers, 1.3 still seems pretty limited in regards to non-wireless features. For example, nearly every report in 1.3 is for wireless controllers or AP's, there are no reports I've found relevent for switches and routers. I've read a lot of blogs, cisco posts, and white papers talking about how Cisco Prime Infrastrucure 2.0 will finally consolidate Prime into a truly all-in-one network management suite that can manage the entire Cisco environment. Does anyone know when it's officially being released? Does anyone have an tech sheets on what's new in 2.0, or what its capabilities are? I want to better understand what 2.0 has to offer, when it's coming out, how to upgrade, so I can start planning for the upgrade and eventually importing all our network devices to Cisco Prime for centralized management. Any useful information or links would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Christian

PI 2.0 is in Beta mode for testing in closed group already. However it may still take some time to get released on CCO for FCS.
I think it is expected to be released between aug-sep. BU has also started working on CPI 2.1, which you can see test uploads on CCO.
For what does it have for customers?
> As Cisco have a vision of one network Management software for both wired and wireless infrastructure, which started getting real partially with Cisco PI.
As WCS got evolved to NCS and eventually to Cisco Prime Infrastructure, but it doesnt yet have full Management capability for wired infra., which is there with LMS.
With CPI 2.x Cisco plans to blend entire LMS and WCS features together.
-Thanks

Can't import images in cisco prime infrastructure 1.2

- Any job , trying to import images, in my cisco prime infrastructure fails with :
Jan 14 13:14:53 cisco-prime 01/14/13 13:15:18.040 ERROR [service] [pool-4-thread-19] IFM_SWIM_EXCEPTION: [com.cisco.ifm.swim.service.exception.IfmSwimParserException: Cannot populate software image info object from the image.]
How I can I solve this one ?

I seem to have the same problem, strangely enough importing a universal image for 2960s worked fine, but I get thos error when trying to import a 3750x image

Cisco prime infrastructure not detect IP address of clients

hi all,
I have Cisco Prime infrastructure 1.2 and when move to monitor >> clients tab it lists me all the clients in my network but their IP address list estates "not detected" ?
please any advice?
I appreciate your kindly support.

Just an update that while this appears to have worked fairly well (as far as Cisco Management Planes go), there was one small 'gotcha' I've noticed so far:
After the services came back up, the entries for our RADIUS servers did not function. No, not because I didn't update the clients address record on the RADIUS server itself, but because the RADIUS server record(s) within CPI have a field called 'Local Interface IP' that still reflects the previous IP assigned to CPI. A quick edit/save with the new interface fixes up the issue however.
Cheers!
