Is Cisco Prime required to use Cisco MSE?

I recently purchased a Cisco MSE 3355 with locator licenses. I have 2- Cisco ISE's and 2 - WLC 5508s.
Is it required to use Cisco Prime in order to see the location services that the MSE is providing?
If so, what type of license do I need?

Prime Infrastructure is required and you need to purchase enough lifecycle license to have a license for every AP you have. Details of the license options are below:

Error Logging into Cisco Agent Desktop whilst using Cisco IP Communicator

Hi there,
I am having an issue whilst using Cisco Agent Desktop Version 7.0. If I use a cisco IP Communicator ( softphone) i get following message, "Login failed due to a configuration error. Please ask you system administrator to associate your phone with the RM JTAPI Provider user ID according to the instructions in the admin guide".
If user logs in to a normal Cisco phone then logs into agent there are no problems.
Bit of a novice so your help would be appreciated.

Hi
In your AppAdmin pages on UCCX, in the Unified CM Configuration screen, there is an 'RM' user defined.
This will be a user in CCMAdmin 'Application Users', which has all your CCX phones associated to it. UCCX uses this to CTI control the handsets... you need to associate the CIPC phone to that user.

Adding MSE from VMware to Cisco Prime

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to register MSE 7.4 on installed on VMWare to Cisco Prime running on version 2.1 but it seems like i'm getting this issue every time i do:
"No response from server. It may be unreachable, or server is down or HTTPS connection to server failed"
I'm sure that the IP address is correct
I'm sure that NCS username and NCS password is correct
I can ping MSE from MSE (hehe)
I can ping Cisco prime from MSE
I also tried to re install MSE on VM but i'm still getting the same error message.
How can this be fixed? thanks

Migrating Cisco WCS Licenses to Cisco Prime NCS Licenses
The Cisco Prime Network Control System uses a single-tier license model. When Cisco WCS BASE or WCS PLUS licenses are being migrated, licenses will be mapped to the new Cisco Prime NCS single-tier model, as shown in Figure 1. Customers are able to migrate their existing WCS licenses by purchasing the migration SKU (L-WCS-NCS1-M-K9) as also indicated.

How to install cisco prime 2.1 on a empty HP server

Hi all,
i want to install cisco prime 2.1 using the physical appliance ISO File on a new empty HP Server, because we have no vmware environment.
After booting from the ISO File I receive the error "connot find kickstart file on cdrom". Because of this I am not able to install the software.
I have loaded the ISO image two times from cisco, so im pretty shure that the images is not broken.
Any Idea?
Thanks!

If you have control of an HP Server, why don't you load VMware into the server? PI requires VMware and can't be loaded onto a "bare metal" frame.

One Cisco prime deployment for three physically different Networks

Can one Cisco prime deployment be used to manage three physically different Networks without creating a bridge between the networks. It is imperative that the networks remain separated but they will be managed by the same team so can you somehow use one Cisco Prime without the networks becoming connected

Hi,
I believe you can manage any device, if it reachable (ICMP/SNMP) to Prime Infrastructure.
Just make sure all the 3 different network reachable to PI, it's not required they're reachable among them.
PI itself do not do any bridging/routing between your 3 different network , therefore PI doesn't know if you can route between them or if they're separated.
Since 3 different network are not reachable among themselves, use 3 different seed ip while discovering.
Also, from management point of view, you can create virtual domain, group the devices network wise, & then while logging in PI, you'll the get feel if you're managing 3 different network by same PI.
But since we know that PI, all the devices of 3 different network, it'll consume the CPU/RAM/Disc space accordingly. therefore need to pay attention for the resources of PI

Hello Jason,
Thank you very much for welcoming me to your expert discussion :) I feel to be in the right place, at the right time. Thank you also for answering question beyond your scope here, much appreciated. The information received will help me to go further as such I have submitted a 5 start rating for your first reply.
That sounds promising about the LMS part so yes, I stay tuned and wait patiently.
Ok, now let’s revert to the actual topic discussed here. Cisco Prime Service Catalog and Process Orchestrator solutions I have briefly read up on this on CCO (where elseJ) and picked out the following quote
---- Quote from the Cisco Prime Service Catalog Data Sheet
Today’s end users want self-service and easy access to IT tools and services.
Simultaneously, organizations are seeking ways to extend their cloud management
platforms beyond self-service delivery of virtual machines and infrastructure resources
while increasing their use of cloud-based solutions to enhance business agility and effectiveness.
Cisco Prime™ Service Catalog offers tremendous benefits to organizations that want to unify the ways in
which all types of IT services are ordered and fulfilled, not just infrastructure requests
---- un quote ---
I try to understand what (at high level of course) happens in the back ground when an order is raised and which vendor solution your product can interact with.
As mentioned in the quoted text, this service catalogue goes beyond the standard infrastructure.
Let’s say, a user wants to deploy a new email services, or in your example, extends or create a new web-portal (i.e. for HR to view and manage holiday, staff absence and benefits).
Your solution will need to interact somehow with the 3rd party vendor application that is capable building such portal I believe.
Without disclosing to many information, I assume the portal is linked to backend VM,s that spin up requested resources (and more magic of course). Perhaps I am mixing this up with another cisco product where a user can go on the portal and spin up virtual Firewalls, virtual Routers can be provisioned in now time.
Out if interest; Is this product also known as Mozart? (project code within Cisco?)
I hope query is ok.
Best wishes

Import local net users to Cisco Prime 1.2

Hi,
We have 4400 WLC that has about 400 local users configured under local net users and we are deploying Cisco Prime 1.2 in our company. Does anyone know how to import these users to Cisco prime? I was told that it could only be done manually like re entering all 400 entries to Cisco Prime! if this is the case it 'll be tedious.
Thanks for any help.

Hello,
Complete the following steps to migrate data from WCS:
1. Place the WCS export ZIP file (for example, wcs.zip) in a repository or folder (for example, repositories).
2. Log in as the admin user and stop the Cisco Prime Infrastructure server by entering the ncs stop command. Configure the FTP repository on the Cisco Prime Infrastructure appliance using the repository command as shown in configuration snippet below:
pi-appliance/admin# configure
pi-appliance/admin(config)# repository pi-ftp-repo
pi-appliance/admin(config-Repository)# url ftp://209.165.200.227/backup
pi-appliance/admin(config-Repository)# user ftp-user password plain ftp-user
Note: Make sure the archived file is available with the show repository command.
3. Enter the ncs migrate command in order to restore the WCS database.
pi-appliance/admin# ncs migrate wcs-data wcs.zip repository pi-ftp-repo
4. By default, no WCS events are migrated. Enter the ncs start command in order to start the Cisco Prime Infrastructure server after the upgrade is completed. Log in to the Cisco Prime Infrastructure user interface with the root login and the root password.
For mmore information you can refer to the cisco prime infrastructure deployment guide:

Cisco Prime Service Catalog & Process Orchestrator Integration

ONe Cisco Prime 3 different networks?

Can one Cisco prime deployment be used to manage three physically different Networks without creating a bridge between the networks. It is imperative that the networks remain separated but they will be managed by the same team so can you somehow use one Cisco Prime without the networks becoming connected

Prime is just a management tool that is used as more of a collaboration tool so you can manage devices in one place instead of physically touching each device so yes it can manage 3 different network as long as those networks are able to reach Prime.
I would create 3 different Virtual Domains for the network and only allow visibility to the specific devices that are in each network so you have complete segmentation.
Hope this helps!

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 Not generating reports

Dears,
I am new to Cisco Prime. I installed Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 for 60-days evaluation and i added routers, switches and APs. I configured SNMP community and telnet credentials. I can see clients on Dashboard, but when i go to reports and generate them for last hour, it displays "None Detected".
Please advise.

Programmatic access to PI's data is via the REST API.
Check the help menu on your PI server to see documentation regarding the supported tables and fields that can be queried via that method.

Can we upgrade IOS in WLC 5508 through CISCO prime?

I have CISCO prime 2.0 and CISCO WLC 5508 HA SSO pair.
I would like to upgrade the software code for the WLC HA pair.
Can I do through the CISCO prime ......
As per the link :http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/technotes/7-5/High_Availability_DG.html#pgfId-43571
1. After the WLCs are configured in the HA setup, the Standby WLC cannot be upgraded directly from the TFTP/FTP server.
Prime do the upgrade through FTP server , so will it be ok if we do the upgrade through it, for HA WLC.

Please check this link to upgrade wLC software in HA setup.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/technotes/7-5/High_Availability_DG.html
Once the Primary WLC complete the upgrade , it will transfer the entire image to the Standby WLC via the Redundant Port.

Cisco Prime Collaboration and SIP Codes

I am trying to position Cisco Prime Collaboration with a Cisco CUBE router and the client wants to know if Prime will be able to do the following:
1) Scan, index and alert on configurable SIP 4xx, 5xx, 6xx
2) Look at acive inbound/outbound calls

Hello Varda,
It seems as the 1040 sensors are not finding the TFTP server. The TFTP server list should not contain the ipaddress with values 32 or 92 in their octets,
1. The 1040 needs to learn of the TFTP by DHCP option 150.
2. Please make sure that it is set on your DHCP server.
3. To confirm that the 1040 sensor is receiving the TFTP IP open a web browser and type http:// and see if the TFTP address field is showing the IP.
4. If it is then you might also need to restart the TFTP service on the CUCM so that the 1040 can download the cnf and image files.
Attached is the userguide for 1040. Go through it and this should be able to resolve your issue.
This is a other method to check the sensor is fine
Fist step install download winagents tftp server ,
enter a Service Monitor Server   Configuration / sensor1040 and in TFTP server enter    ip address(winagents tftpserver) and go to SETUP
in setup   put you ip address in PRIMARY SERVICE MONITOR and push OK   you look the server write file in (TFTP server )
Next STEP
Go to MANAGEMENT   and add new sensor you need mac address remember second port in sensor is span port you can make a sencond file in the tftp server
Next STEP
go to service monitor server and copy file *.img CSCOpx/
Next STEP
Search you dhcp server switch     option 150 in put your ip address tftp server when sensor power off and power on the sensor search tftp server and search files to autoconfig and register to service monitor when test is ok
its time to upload change winagent tftp server to callmanager tftp server
Hope this helps
Thanks & Regards,
