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.

Monitoring ASA in Cisco Prime infrastructure 2.2

Hi everybody. I have some issue with cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2. We use this product in our network for monitoring network devices and I need to monitor also our ASA 5550 device with soft 8.4. I added ASA to Cisco PI but see only basic component like my device can reachable via and read via snmp. But cannot see CPU, RAM, Device ENV like Temperature, l2l vpn connection, Interfaces status and Utilization that interfaces, cannot see sub interface that placed on ASA like that g0/0.20. I need fully monitor ASA and See logs and trap for my device:
CPU RAM ENV (Temperature), Interface and sub interface status, L2L VPN Status.
1 Cisco Prime infrastructure can full support ASA for monitoring and logging.. IF YES how can i configure that features in Cisco PI 2.2 for ASA
2 IF not which product Can full support that features for full monitoring and logging ASA devices
I have a little deadline for finishing
thanks everybody before

I've not success monitoring ASA interface utilization either. I'm using PI 2.2 with device update #1. The ASA is a 5585-X with 9.2(3) software.
I have deployed the PI monitoring template to the ASA and do see its overall status and PI has enumerated the interfaces in the device page.
I even looked at a packet capture and see PI querying the values of the interface counters and those values being sent back to PI - yet I cannot select any ASA interface when drilling down under Performance Detail monitoring.
When I get some free time I will open a TAC case on it, meanwhile I am getting all the info I need from the upstream and downstream switches.

Is VSS supported in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2?

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):
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/4.1/user/guide/configuration/configvss.html
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

Trouble With Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3

Hi,
I have installed the Evaluation Version Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3.
There are a few problems that i am facing;
I am trying to push a simple configuration to WLC using Prime Infrastructure. But it is failing as PI doesnot have RW SNMP access.
My question is that can I use PI to push configs without using SNMP. Like do it using ftp or something.
Also do the Wired Devices also need SNMP RW access on PI's part.
2. I tried running discovery for WLC and it worked fine where all the controllers were discovered. But when I try to discover a Switch, the reachability tab says Reachable but in Collection Status tab it shows Unmanaged. When I click on the Unmanaged tab it says " Pre-collection check failed because: ". I have configured the SNMP correctly.
3. I have the CAD files for all the maps in our environment but when I try to upload it to Prime it converts it into GIF, so the maps are uploaded as plain image with no knowledge of walls and obstacles.
So we would have to add the walls and obstacles by ourselves. Is there any way it can automatically pick up on the walls and obstacles and thus provide a better way for predicting RF profiles.
All your help is greatly appreciated.

TAC Case! Sounds like a bug to me...

Topology View / Service with Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.x "PRIME-NCS-APL-K9" ????

Hi Team,
Hope you all doing well.
I just want know few thing about Cisco Prime Infra 2.x.
1st thing is does CPI2.x support Network topology View? if not then is that any other feature which can provide Network View (exa :- Map,etc)?
2nd thing is it possible to take Telnet/Ssh of discovered device from CPI2.x then how we can do that?
3rd Thing if we want to add third party device in CPI2.x then what are prerequisite for the same (Vendor MIB, etc) and procedure?
Your help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Vishal

Hi Vishal,
Since you don't have any data as such on PI 2.1 , go ahead installed PI 2.2 on the Appliance.
Yes , you need to download , the .ISO image and burned it on DVD and start the installation.
here is the download link::
https://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=286236028&flowid=72882&softwareid=284272932&release=2.2&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=latest
You need to check if you are entitle for download or not.
Can we installed PI 2.2 from current PI 2.1 GUI access? No , it is not possible.
check these links for installation step::

Replicate in the Master controller and creation of new user with cisco prime infrastructure 2.1.

Hello!!
We have multiple controllers Cisco WLC 5508 (all running software version 7.6.120.0) distributed in various buildings and a controller in other control building (also Cisco WLC 7.6.120.0 5508) operating as Master and backup of the buildings's controllers .
Each building is radiated such an SSID that is used as a validation of the user connected to that SSID web portal each controller (in the WLAN, Security -> Layer 3 -> Web Policy), using the local database to validate the user.
The problem is that the local database of users is not being replicated between controllers buildings and the Master controller, so if you drop the controller of a building, the Master controller begins to provide service to the buildings access points, but the equivalent radiated SSID cannot able to validate users.
I need know if it's possible through Cisco Prime Infrastruture 2.1, first replicate in the Master controller on the basis of existing controllers buildings each local data and, second, that the creation of new users are automatically perform both the controllers like to the Master .
Thanks.

As noted earlier, it is not advisable to use the root user to log in for normal use. New users and groups can be created by navigating to Administration > Users, Roles & AAA as shown in the preceding figures. It would help to chalk out what are the various levels at which you want to distribute the users, and to create those roles first. It doesn’t really matter whether you create users or groups first. New users can be easily added by going to Administration > Users, Roles & AAA > Users > Add Users > Select “Add Users” from the drop-down on the right side. Once you get into the add user workflow, fill in the username, password, and local authorization for this user as shown in the figure below.
A virtual domain can also be assigned to the users when you define their roles by selecting the virtual domain on the left side and moving it to the right side as shown in the image below (left).

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 and Aironet 1250 + VSS issues

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.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 Error

Hi,
I don't have any experience with Cisco Prime infrastructure. I am getting the below error
Unable to start secondary NCS server PRLPrimeNCS02 [10.140.xx.xx]
Reason: IO Error: could not resolve the connect identifier "wcss1"
Not sure exactly what the error means. Any help much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Scott,
Thank you for your email.
The HA is runing on the Cisco Prime. Runing Cisco Prime on a Virtual machine in VM.
The issue we are experiencing is that the system failed over to the secondary (HA) for unknown reasons. When we failed it back it didn’t fail back properly. Configured Manual failover. Managed to failback to primary but it complained HA was no longer configured.
Tried to remove HA and reconfigure it. The primary removed the HA configuration, but the secondary kept it. Here is some info on the secondary

URGENT---cisco prime infrastructure 1.2. change default theme

hello guys,
I wanted to ask you a question.
I have installed in my company the cisco prime infrastructure 1.2.
As you know, the lifecycle theme has enough bugs, but these bugs are overtaken if we use the classic theme.
I have several users working with cisco prime infrastructure 1.2, and i was wondering if it is possible to define classic theme as default for all people.
thnks

I would think if they logged in they can change their own preference. You only can change it from the account you logged in as.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure MESH LINK ISSUE

Hi,
a Customer of us has a trouble with cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2.0.12 and AP mesh link.
There is an huge database ( i suppose the issue can be here ) and when we display some map ( each floor has about 6 RAP and 24 MAP ) we cannot see the MESH information and link draw.
The only way to dipley them is to disable "refresh from network": this way I'm able to show these link..... until a click before.
What i noticied when all was working fine, after i click to some floor:
1) the software started to show the map with normal color and no mesh info displayed ( just ap and coverage cloud )
2) after few time ( less than 1 second ) the map was becoming a little bit lighter and the mesh info was merged to the map
We are missini the second step
Anyone had the same issue ?
best regards
Luigi
PS: I opened a case with WCS version 6.0 ( same issue ) but, after some months, no risult. The last version working fine was WCS 5.2

Just to add some more informations:
- disabling "refreshj from network" ( building properties ) the link and mesh info are showed
- while I'm on a floor, after some refresh, i loose the mesh link draw and, if i click on an AP, i loose also mesh info in the popup. It' s like, after some refresh, the AP are no more recognized as Mesh ( !?!? )
regards
Luigi

Cisco prime infrastructure 1.3 makes every 15 minutes cpu high on cisco 800 routers

I have an issue with cisco prime infrastructure 1.3 and cisco 880 routers, every 15 minutes the cpu goes to 100% on those routers, but I cannot find the job on the prime which is causing this, if I look in the job dashboard I have some jobs like sam_poller_22_15_getvpnpoller_27977292 that runs every 15 minutes (other jobs that I see CDBPoller_dmvpnPoller and CDBPoller_getvpnpoller) , probably is it on of these jobs, but how can I stop it (job type : poller job, owner =system) and what are they doing?
thanks for any assistance

This is what i expected. I know many platform like 29xx/39xx or ISR's has known issues with Cisco Prime Infrastructure when it polls CISCO-LICENSE-MGMT-MIB, devices go high on CPU.
You have to block clmgmtLicenseInfoEntry by creating a view on your 800 router by configuring snmp view.
Following is the command/example:
Step 1: Configure SNMP View:
snmp-server view iso included
snmp-server view clmgmtLicenseInfoEntry excluded
Link community string to SNMP View:
snmp-server community view ro|rw
Example per your configuration:
snmp-server view PrimeInfra iso included
snmp-server view PrimeInfra clmgmtLicenseInfoEntry excluded
snmp-server community ArgSnmp view PrimeInfra RO ACLSNMP_RO
OR you can try following on your Cisco PI:
Manually update file below,
Open the /opt/CSCOlumos/conf/sam/template.xml, modify the template id=20 (licensePoller)
Update tag for value 600 to 86400 for all attrributes () of
template id =20
Old: 600
New: 86400
Some known bugs on such issues are :
CSCug97914 and CSCuc72024
Please check and let me know the updates.

Download devices syslogs of Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2

Hello,
I'm working with Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2, wish I could download to my PC syslog captured by PI.

Hi ,
In the prime infrastructure Syslogs are directly read from udp port 514 and then filtered , the non SEV1 and SEV2 syslogs will be dropped and will not be entered into db . The syslog messages will not be saved into log files .
