Cisco Prime Infrastructure deployment through Cisco 3945 ISR

Dears,
I have Cisco 3945 ISR include module for the Cisco prime infrastructure.
I need to deploy the prime but when I connected monitor on the module I saw that it is looking for DHCP only.
Please can anyone support me with procedure to install the prime?
Should I install the ESXi on this module by make it boot from external device (USB, or CD drive)?
Your support is highly appreciated,
Regards,

Cisco 3945- boot up fails with no error

Greetings,
Just throwing it out there to see if anyone throw some ideas my way. I recently sent a working/tested Cisco 3945 ISR router out to a office for redundancy. Before I did that, I removed WLAN controller and slot module, 1xVWIC2 T1 and 1xVIC2 FX0 modules. I did however leave the PVDM3 64ch and 1x VWIC t1 modules and flash card, which had a v15 IOS loaded and basic config. Upon delivery they said it doesn't work, "it hangs" and no damage externally or failed hardware (power supplies/fans). These things always make me wonder, cause hangs is so vague and do not really see Cisco routers do this unless they are taking larger than normal packets or someone turned on debugging without turning it off.
Here's my thinking and hope someone can chime in and throw some ideas at me before I get on a call with them on Monday. I attached a screen shot they sent of the boot up and looks to me that its trying to initialize the current config file which which may be trying to initialize the voice channels. Could this be as easy as killing the current config loaded, going into rommon and setting it back to default maybe? Or just removing the PVDM card maybe?
I hate to say something is just broke, I rarely see this and being I powered it up and tested the hardware, I don't want to involve tac until I can rule out the obvious. I did, however, test and powered down the router before removing the additional hardware. Would this current config on the router that may have lingering hardware (which I removed) in the config cause this to happen as well?
Side note: The flash cleared and below were the contents of the flash before sending out the router.

Remove all modules and boot.
Another thing, your IOS is very old. VERY.
If you want to stick with 15.0(1)M-series then go to M10 but don't just "sit" in an old M3.

FortiGate MIB Compatibility with Prime Infrastructure

I have a Cisco Prime Infrastructure deployment that I would like to monitor various third-party devices. I have successfully discovered my FortiGate 60D device, but it has no monitoring functionality.
I am trying to create a custom SNMP polling template to deploy to the device and I'm wondering is the FortiGate MIB is even supported by PI? If so, which SNMP MIB do you select when creating a new template?

The FortiGate SNMP page on the FortiGate Web GUI links two MIB downloads:
FORTINET-FORTIGATE-MIB
FORTINET-CORE-MIB
I have successfully uploaded the FORTINET-CORE-MIB file to the Prime Infrastructure MIB list and I am able to successfully apply that MIB to a template and the template to a dashlet, which outputs data. The issue is when I try to upload the FORTINET-FORTIGATE-MIB file, it produces an error message showing:

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.

Deploying Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2

For the deployment of Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 do I need to have 1 or 2 appliances or vms. From what I can read version 1.2 is supposed to combine Cisco Prime LMS and NCS into one pane of glass for management so I would assume that I would only need one appliance or VM.
Thanks.
Tyler

Not completely just yet. PI 1.2 does incorporate some LMS 4.2 functionality but falls short of a complete replacement. So for now if you want all the bells and whistles of LMS 4.2, you still need to build a separate instance of LMS. At least it is included with the PI 1.2 license.
PI 2.0 is supposed to bring more feature parity - we'll see though....

Email notification for config deployment jobs in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 ??

We're upgrading from LMS 3.2 to Cisco Prime Infrastructure ...
In LMS 3.2 we're using netconfig all the time to configure various jobs related to port security
In installing Cisco Prime Infrastructure and working through it's use of templates, I'm having some difficulty finding out how to send out a notification once a configuration job has completed. It's so simple in LMS 3.2 since it's part of the job creation screens.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

HI, Raymond
Just wondering if this problem is resolved?
Thanks!

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 config deployment (no copy run start)

I have deployed some CLI templates I have created to configure multiple local accounts on some switches. However the cli templete only appears to accept conf t commands, it will not accept 'write mem' or 'copy run start' at the end to save the altered running config to startup. this results in running and startup being 'out of sync' in the configuration archives, and runs the risk of a power failure causing the config to revert back to startup. Does anyone know how to ensure the altered running config is saved to startup during the config template deployment?

I don't know if this has been fixed in 2.0 or not. By the looks of the bug it hasn't. However, there is a workaround-

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):

Ciscoworks LMS 3.0 to Cisco Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2

In order to complete the upgrade the LMS 3.x runs over a physical server that ends with the upgrade(server its gona be retired), the think is that the Cisco Prime comes with an UCS and its gona run over a VM. The question here is the "Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1 - Maj Upg from LMS 2.x/3.x" media could be runs as clean install, I mean with no LMS 3.x intalled before? an the "Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2 - 1.5K Device Maj Upg Lic" could be registered with no license installed of LMS 3.x?

There are a couple of things to distinguish:
1. The product SKU you need to order to migrate from LMS 3 to LMS 4.2.
2. The license file that is installed on that new LMS server.
#1 is based on Cisco agreeing, usually through the partner or reseller you are working with, that you are entitled to order the upgrade SKU (vs. buy a complete new product). The upgrade SKUs are all listed in the ordering guide here.
L-PI12-1.5K-UP (note - NOT the 1.1 product description you noted in the original post) would be the SKU for a major upgrade from LMS 2.x/3.x to the current Prime Infrastructure 1.2 release at the 1500 device license level. That upgrade includes licenses for both PI 1.2 and Prime LMS 4.2. You may choose which to install - most LMS customers stick with LMS for now as PI 1.2 does not yet have full feature parity. Your managed devices should not exceed 1500 combined (in this case) but that combined number is not enforced technically by the product's license daemon.
Once you have purchased the product and have the media you can install it on any host that meets the installation prerequisites as far as OS, memory, disk etc. A clean installation of LMS does not check for or require a previous installation as far as technical checks.
#2 - Once you have installed the new LMS server (and optionally a step near the end of installation, you need to add in the license file (*.lic file). That is obtained through the Cisco licensing portal (or via the TAC if you prefer) using the Product Activation Key (PAK) received with your product.

Hallo Bastian,
I think you still have browser issue, Using IE is still the best with Prime.
I have exactly same prime 2.2 and installed fixes/software/device packs.
I have no problem I can see all views. I use now IE 11, with Chrome 42.0.2311.90 and firefox 37.01 I have problems too with lots of views. You have not tell what browser + version you have.
Since you have same prime 2.2 as me. I have other problems, can you check yours?
Can you see a functional CLI template page at Configuration > Templates > Features & Technologies:

Cisco Prime Infrastructure patch 2.1.1 - installed or no?

I’ve reinstalled new Cisco Prime using the newest ISO image version 2.1.0.0.87. After that I installed the patch file (pi211_20140630_01.ubf) for version 2.1.1 and rebooted the server. After that I don’t see any information in CLI that I have version 2.1.1 installed. When I type sh ver I still see version 2.1.0.0.87. The only information which confirm this information is a “Software update” site in GUI interface where status of the patch is "Installed". Is this normal behavior?
Regards
Lukas

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 Rest API XML does not add LF

I am using several scripts that dig the data from XML files created through Cisco Prime Infrastructure Rest API. It worked fine until 2.1. Now, with 2.2, seems Cisco stopped adding LF to each line and everything is 'one' line.
Here is an example with 2.1, there is a LF to the end of each line:

Does anyone know, is this intentional or a mistake? Or is there a way how I control this?
I am reading on-line CPI Rest API docs, but seems cannot find anything.
Thanks,
Vlad

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.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 and Aironet 1250 + VSS issues

Hi,
I am new to the NCS implementations and configurations. I have one very specific case with Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 and autonomnous APs and several issues with Cisco VSS on 6500 switches.

Compiled Thu 11-Aug-11 03:23 by prod_rel_team
Well the issue what we have now is that access point has been added but its not recognized by the NCS prime. I have tried all three versions of SNMP but I get the same result. The SNMP configuration is valid since I use the same for my switching infrastructure. When I enter "debug snmp packets" and "terminal monitor" I can see the SNMP communication between Prime and Aironet 1250 which is standalone.
When I switch to Lifecycle theme and go to Operate > Device Monitor Center I see all devices I have added. The Aironet 1250 is reachable but under collection status I get Managed with Warnings. When I hover over with my mouse I get "None available".
I have successfully added my switching infrastructure in total, which is operating perfectly for Catalyst 2960/3650/3750/4500 series but for 6500 under VSS I have some warnings. The device is recognized by the system which is excellent and all is operational. I get the following errors under Collection Status:
feature_sensor
SNMP request timed out
feature_powerSupplyFanStatus-6k
SNMP request timed out
IdentityCapability
The device is unreachable.
feature_flashdevice
SNMP request timed out
sam_ipsla_feature
The device is unreachable.
What can be done to resolve these issues ? I have attached a screenshot of this particular issue. The affected access point is 172.16.165.241.
Predrag Petrovic

Hi rajeeshp,
Currently I am not allowed to upgrade it because of internal procedures involved in upgrading a specific piece of software (obtaining permissions from various departments). Is it free to upgrade from 1.2 to 1.3 or there is a specific charge for that.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 - SNMPv3 can´t get CPU, memory info.

Hi,
I have a Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 deployment with Catalyst 2960S switches. Switches are running IOS 15.0(2) SE2. All switches have SNMPv2 configured, and all appears to be fine. I'm migrating one switch to SNMPv3, and PI have reachability to the switch, but PI doesn´t receive traps from the switch, and neither poll CPU and memory information (all displays 0.00%).
Somebody have a sample configuration of SNMPv3 with Cisco Prime (Infrastructure or LMS)? I cannot find a Cisco official (or unofficial) document related to this version, usually all mention SNMPv2.
Thank you.
Eduardo

Hi Eduardo:
SNMPv3 is indeed supported for general administration. There's a bug with SWIM using SNMPv3 (CSCud92758), but you should be fine for just monitoring. Have you deleted the switch, waited until Prime Infrastructure told you it was gone, then readded it as SNMPv3 natively? Bug CSCug78869 keeps things from working well when changing SNMP versions.
If you don't have the new Update-1 patch for Prime Infrastructure 1.3.0.20 installed (filename PI_1.3.0.20_Update_1-12.tar.gz) installed, I'd suggest you get it. While it's not going to specifically address this issue, there are a lot of really good fixes in it.
