PI 2.0 - Interface bulk configuration - Interface Roles

Hi,
I did some research on how to use CLI configuration template do bulk configure Ports depending on their Port description. I found the Interface Role definition located in "Design --> Shared Policy Objects" which seemed perfect to be used inside a configuration template. It is also written in the User Guide that Interface Roles can be used in configuration templates. The problem for me now is that i did not find out how to use Interface Roles inside custom CLI configuration templates!? The Interface Roles can be choosen inside some pre-defined templeats like the AVC template but apart from that i am not aware how to include Interface Roles in any custom configuration template!?
Does anyone have some experience with this or maybe a link to a more detailed documentation for creating configuration templates? All i found out about CLI templates so far is how to define variables!?
Thanks in advance!

Hey Florian,
well let's see if port groups is the solution.
All the other things are just workarounds and we are confused how to treat LAN switches.
Our customers used templates for access switches to tell the device what is necessary to monitor. If prime does it from now, we should have the information what is necessary to configure on Switches.
I'll let you know, if we have the right answer.

Configure Interface channel monitoring for PI in SOLMAN 7.1

Hi Experts,
I am configuring interface channel monitoring for PI in SOLMAN 7.1.In step 5 (Define scope) it is asking to select scenario.I can see all PI systems (Dev,QA and PRD) is listed in the table with "monitoring and alerting setup status" as yellow.when I select PI (prod) and proceed , in step 6.3 (Interface channel Monitoring config) I don't find any channel name in table.I need your support to clear my understanding on this.
1)My objective is to monitor all the interfaces that are existing between PI system and other SAP as well as non SAP systems (that include JDBC connections also).How can find all these interfaces in solman while doing Interface channel monitoring config?
2)I am not sure if I have understood correctly that I need to create scenario that includes technical systems between which Interface channel are to be monitored. If I am correct then how can I bring the technical system to SOLMAN SLD from Local SLD of PI(prod).Here I am not getting option to synchronize SOLMAN SLD from PI Local SLD. Even Import option is also not there. Do I need to create all the Technical systems (present in PI) to SOLMAN SLD manually?
If my understanding is not correct then please guide me through steps to do the configuration to achieve my objective.
Thanks
Aditya Roushan.

yes, the problem solved. thanks for your replies all.
the users SLDDSUSER and SLDAPIUSER got locked, I changed it in su01.
and I created rfc in SM59 for SAPSLDAPI and LCRSAPRFC and create the same in JCo RFC provider.
both are working.
but iam facing new problem.
I have solution manager 7.1 system and I configured local SLD. I did not connect any managed system as of now.
after all the trouble shooting, SLDAPICUST and SLDCHECK is fine but
the error is
"Functional call returned exception code 3"
"Access to XI Profile currently disrupted.
I have solution manager 7.1, I did not configure managed systems as of now. is this error belongs to solution manager 7.1 or for PI system.
can u please guide me how to trouble shoot this error. check the following screen shot for reference.
thanks in advance.

Is it possible to move some tools or their setting parameter from Configuration interface to Inspection Interface?

Hi
We use Vision Builder for machine vision. There are two interfaces in Vision Builder (Inspection Interface & Configuration interface). It is better machine vision operator would work with Inspection Interface and he should not access to all of setting and tools but he need to redefine some parameter like RIO in some tools like measuring tools for different products.
Is it possible to move some tools or their setting parameter from Configuration interface to Inspection Interface?
Or is it possible to define security like password to some tools and their setting but not all of them?
Thanks
Refa

Vision Builder generally isn't supposed to rely on user input, but there is a step called "User Input" that allows you to get input from the user. ROI would be tricky. I think the slickest way to do that would be to create a VI that displays the image, lets the user drag a rectangle, then pass those coordinates back to Vision Builder to configure the ROI.

IDoc to IDoc Scenario - Correct Interface Mapping configuration

Hello All,
i have to configure an Interface Mapping for an IDoc to IDoc scenario.
IDoc Type for sending and receiving already imported and located under Imported Objectes\IDocs in respective Software Component Version.
Now, how is the correct configuration? Add the sending respectively receiving IDoc Type directly to Source Interface/Target Interface under Display Interface Mapping or create first a sending Message Interface and a receiving Message Interface and add the IDoc type under configuration Message Types. Then add the Message Interface to the Interface Mapping.
The selection for direct import of the IDoc structure under the Interface Mapping (Source Interface/Target Interface) is possible.
Many Thanks in advanced!
Jochen

hi,
for IDOCs (if you don't use a BPM)
you don't need any message interface
so if you have already created a message mapping
you can put the IDOCs directly to your interface mapping
then click on read interfaces
and select your message mapping program
if you want to learn more about IDOCs and XI
have a look at my book:

Hi,
Sounds bit strange to me, if you edit your window and do not want to save your changes then i would not expect this error. assuming that the component does not have activation problem.
Just for making sure.
I assume that your problem is on design time and not runtime.
If it is a design time and problem still exists, try to delete this window, save ,activate and then recreate this window,embed your view(s).
If it is runtime problem then i would suggest you to do debugging and find out where it is getting this error.

Is there a Web-Interface to configure Time Capsule?

Every router has a web interface to configure it from any locally connected computer independent from what computer or OS you are using (Mac, Windows PC, Linux, etc...). So far, as I figured out, Time Capsule can only be configured via the AirPort Utility on Mac OS. As I am using a heterogenous network with Macs, Windows and even Linux PCs this is very disappointing to me...

Sorry but none of Apple's routers (including the Time Capsule) have a web interface for configuration.
Time Capsule can only be configured via the AirPort Utility on Mac OS.
It can also be configured using AirPort Utility on a PC running Windows XP (SP2) or Windows Vista.

l Use this URL:

If a Sessions page is displayed, then IIS is correctly configured. If there is any error in IIS, check the Event Log to identify the problems. Check the System and Application Log to see if errors were logged by ASP.NET or IIS, and fix any errors. A possible cause is incorrect privileges for the user for the TEMP directory.
l Check the Event Logs from sources starting with HyS9EPMA. Possible causes are communication errors with Shared Services or the database.
l The ASPNET user may not have access to certain folders. If the Event Log displays any security-related errors, assign rights to the ASPNET user.
1. From the command prompt, go to this directory: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727.
2. Enter run aspnet_regiis.exe -ga.

Unable to query IPv4 router of manually configured interface

I need to determine the IPv4 router for a given Ethernet/WiFi interface.
The route table can not always be used to determine the router in the case of a multi-homed system.
So, the SystemConfiguration framework seems to be the right choice to use by querying the kSCPropNetIPv4Router property from the network service associated with the interface.
This works fine assuming the Ethernet or WiFi interface is configured using DHCP. However, if the interface is manually configured then the kSCPropNetIPv4Router property doesn't seem to exist!
I have a sample program which illustrates this and scutil seems to show the same thing.
Any help?

Could I configure local switching between sub-interface and global interface on ASR9k?

Could I configure local switching between sub-interface and global interface on ASR9k?

For 2 interfaces it is probably best to use an xconnect. It is faster and saves system resources (eg mac learning doesnt apply to xconnect).
Config example:
l2vpn
xconnect group link
p2p link
interface Bundle-Ether100.4321
interface Bundle-Ether500.4321
EFP config:
interface Bundle-Ether100.4321 l2transport
encapsulation dot1q 4000
rewrite ingress tag pop 1 symmetric
interface Bundle-Ether500.4321 l2transport
encapsulation dot1q 2000
rewrite ingress tag pop 1 symmetric
This example shows that you can link 2 EFP's with different vlan's together if you'd pop the tags.
If the EFP's are of the same vlan, then popping the tag can be done but not a must. In general it is recommended to always pop vlan tags so there is a standard EFP design, but not for any technical reasons.
When you use a bridge domain and using a BVI, you MUST pop the tags as the BVI has no notion of a vlan tag and wants to see "plain ethernet".

Configure interface

Hello,
does anybody know if it is possible using aaa and privilage level commands to let a user to configure a specific interface on Catalyst 2950 switch (IOS version 12.1(22)EA4) ? For example, a FastEthernet interface but not the Giga interface.
Thanks in advance.
Maxime Frolov

Hello,
I think I can let a user with a privelege level 3 to configure interfaces if I put the following commands in the config :
username labo2 privilege 3 secret 5 XXXXXXXXXXX
privilege configure level 3 interface
privilege interface level 3 duplex
privilege interface level 3 speed
etc..
The problem is the user labo2 will be able to configure speed not only ont the FastEthenet interfaces but also ont the Giga interfaces. Do you know if there is any way to avoid it or it's just impossible.
Thanks.

Configure interface vlan on switch 3524 XL

Hi all,
I have an old switch C3524 running image "C3500XL-c3h2s-mz-120.5.2-xu". I had successfully created vlan 120 but when I config "interface vlan 120" as follows:
swicth # conf t
switch(config-subif)#interface vlan 120
switch(config-subif)#ip address 172.10.10.1 255.255.255.0
switch(config-subif)#no shut
then show run does not see this interface. Show vlan indicates vlan 120 is active.
Please help. thank you.

you're right. I just shut down interface vlan 10 (interface vlan 1 is down already) then interface vlan 120 comes up. Question is: if I need to configure several ports: some in vlan 10 and some in vlan 120 then should I have interface vlan 10 up too ?
Thank you very much.

How to create bulk configuration files from a template for staging?

Hello,
We have created a sample configuration for ISRG2 2901 Router. The sample configuration is long, and with copy/paste it is possible to skip some lines, and it is difficult to ensure the configuration of every device is standardized due to this error possibility. What we are trying to achieve is first create a template from this sample configuration file, and then create configuration files for each device seperately and automatically. After creating this configuration instances, we want to be able to distribute the configuration files (and possibly the ios) to the devices during the staging phase. Since there are about 1000 2901 routers, creating configuration files is important?
From searching we have found the following tools:
1) CCE (Cisco Configuration Engine): This tool seems to be very efficient for distributing the created configuration files. We may use the serial number of the device, and it provides almost zero touch provisioning of the configuration files to the devices. Creating the configuration file from the template seems to be manual, i.e enter the ip addresses of the interfaces, the routing tables one by one for each device. How can we use velocity template for device configs?
2) Ciscoworks LMS Prime: It is possible to create a baseline template for the devices, and after getting the backup configuration of the routers, it is possible to compare the actual configuration of the device with the baseline template, and understand if there is any difference with each other. This is indeed very useful in order to keep the configuration standardized, we again could not find a way to create bulk configuration files from the baseline template.
3) Solarwinds Config Generator: This tool is useful for creating a configuration file from a template, but again not for automatically creating configuration files, and needs manual intervention.
4) Excel Macro: It seems that some people have achived to automatically create configuration files with using an excel macro, but we could not find a procedure or tip of how to achieving this.
5) Pearl or TCL/TK Script: Again since we are not software developers but from networking field, it is difficult to achieve a working form of this scripts or codes due to to lack of documentation and development experience.
So our problem comes down to creating a template from a sample configuration, and creating bulk configuration files from the template. Is there a specific tool or procedure to achive this purpose?
Thanks in Advance,
Best Regards,
