Is VSS supported in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2?

VSS support (converting standalone switches into a VSS) was introduced with LMS 3.0.1 if I remember well and it is still there in LMS 4.2 (Cisco Prime Infrastructure):

Config Mgmt is supported, also.

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

UPS monitoring support with Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2

Dear Members,
Good day,
I am having a project implemented wherein i have the UPS power redudancy solution for our network devices.
Now can anyone gide that is it possible for below :-
UPS units installed with SNMP cards be monitored via Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 as our monitoring & management solution is Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 ?
if yes
Can you guide if following action would be possible to export the below logs from UPS unit to our Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2
   a) UPS fault status information
   b) UPS operational status(input power available Y/N)
   c) Battery fault status
   d) Battery charging current
   e) Battery charge level
   f) Output current
Conclusion is we need to confirm that would it be posible to achieve remote monitoring of these UPS units via our CPI 1.2
Thanks in Advance for your support & replies to this query.
Regards,
Muzammil N.

Prime Infrastructure 1.2 can manage non-Cisco devices in a limited fashion via SNMP query and trap processing. It cannot import logs and does not have a generic syslog server,
So if your devices have snmp read only support and can generate SNMP traps for the above you can add them to PI. Follow the manual add device procedure here.

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.
So here is the version from Prime:

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.

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 nexus 6001 not a supported device on cisco prime infrastructure 2.1?

I have installed Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 and Prime Infrastructure still doesn't seem to support the Nexus 6001 platform? Can someone tell me if Cisco Prime Infrastructure will ever support the Cisco Nexus 6001 platform or is there any plans to support it in any future device packs?

The Nexus 6001 isn't currently supported in PI 2.1. There's no workaround except to wait for a device or product update that adds support. Right now I know the 9000 series is on the 2.2 roadmap but I haven't seen any reference to the 6001 and PI.
Interestingly, Prime LMS does support both the 6001 and 6004. Reference.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 - WS-C2940-8TF-S and WS-C2940-8TT-S supported ?

Hello community,
I've got a question just to play safe.
I'm running a Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1, we still do have a bunch of WS-C2940-8TF-S and WS-C2940-8TT-S with running images 12.1(22)EA12 , 12.1(22)EA13 and 12.1(22)EA14.
I know these switch types already have a End-of-Sale and End-of-Life Announcement for the Cisco Catalyst 2940-8TT-S and 2940-8TF-S Compact Switches ("http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-2940-series-switches/end_of_life_notice_c51-510224.html").
The inventory collection status in the device work Center is for these switch types "Collection Failure", the error message is this one:
An unexpected error has occurred:
# Check the device is in supported device list in deployment guide -> not listed in "http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/2-1/release/notes/cpi_rn.html#pgfId-43885"
# Check there is connectivity between the device and PI -> Checked adnd OK
# Check the device credentials provided are valid -> Checked adnd OK
# Finally if the problem still persists then contact Cisco System's technical assistance center -> not done yet, looks like these switch types are not supported any more in PI 2.1 ?
Can anyone confirm this or answer back because these switch types are supported in her/his PI2.1 installation?
Best regards
Bastian

Prime Infrastructure won't support those legacy models.

Is cisco prime infrastructure support / can be run as syslog server?

Dear All,
is cisco prime infrastructure support / can be run as syslog server?
and,
where i can see network topology diagram, using cisco prime infrastructure?
many thanks,
Jerri

Hello. Cisco Prime LMS will be replaced by Cisco Prime Infrastructure in the near future.
In the current release of Cisco Prime Infrastructure you can't use topology diagrams. This feature is in roadmap.
About syslog, you can send syslogs to Cisco Prime Infrastructure, but I don't recommend using it as syslog server. Please see this link for more information https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2179520

How to mornitor VSS (Virtual Switching System) & Stack (Switch) By Cisco Prime Infrastructure

Dear all,
I have 02 C6504-E with VSS (Virtual Switching System)
and 02 C3750X-24T-L used Stack
How to you Cisco Prime Infrastructure to monitor VSS & Stack tatus?
Thanks.

Virtual Switching technology is the process of combining two standalone distribution switches found in the local distribution layer into a single management point.
The Virtual Switching System functions and appears as a single switch to the wiring closet and the core layer. You can also create Virtual Switching Systems with a pair of standalone switches available in the core layer.
For configuration please check the below link:

Do we support Cisco Prime Infrastructure in Windows Platform?

Do we support Cisco Prime Infrastructure in Windows Platform?

PI 1.2 needs to run on either a Cisco physical appliance or VMware ESX/ESXi 4.1 or 5.0. It's RHEL-based under the covers.
Unlike LMS, you can't install it on a windows server, either physical or virtualized.

Does Cisco Prime Infrastructure supports monitoring CPU,Memory, HDD for UCS , VMWare?

Does Cisco Prime Infrastructure supports monitoring CPU,Memory, HDD for UCS , VMWare?

Prime Infrastructure/ Assurance is positioned today more towards managing network elements and network performance, rather than server infrastructure. We are in the process of adding Datacenter component support, with more focus on Nexus and UCS- due later this year.
Having said that, Prime Infrastructure allows the system user to add custom SNMP polling templates, which can then be used for polling any SNMP based values from any SNMP enabled device. These can be used to collect the information you specified below and the polled information will be available in dashboards and reports.

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!

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.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 on Windows Server/Hyper-V

Hi Everyone,
In Entriprise environment while designing a BYOD solution we need to integrate ISE3315 with CPI 1.2. I know that Cisco ISE software either runs on 3315 platform or other option is virtual appliance (which is VMware based). Now problem is that we have Hyper-V environment as standard so I need to go with ISE-3315. Here my concern is to I install CPI 1.2 on Hyper-V, or on a Windows Server (2008 or 2012) based machine. Is that doable?
Any help, suggessions would be warmly welcomed.
Thanks,
Azhar...

Cisco Prime LMS will slowly be phased out in favor of Cisco Prime Infrastructure and hence there are no new mainline releases are planned to provide support to new Hardware or virtualization support.
However, Prime LMS do support Hyper V Virtualization (As an installable in Windows 2008). Please note that Virtualization technologies like, VMWare and Hyper V virtualization systems are not supported in LMS 5000, and LMS 10000 Devices license, in Windows. VMWare Systems are supported in LMS 5000, and LMS 10000 Devices license in Soft Appliance. Virtualization technologies like, VMWare and Hyper V virtualization systems are not supported in LMS 5000, and LMS 10000 Devices license, in Windows.

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.
