When is Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 released, and what does 2.0 offer?

                   We are running Prime Infrastructure 1.3 primarily for wireless management at this point.  We have enough licenses to add all our switches, routers, and firewalls, but we're hesitant to do so until 2.0 comes out.  While there are some features for backing up and configuring switches and routers, 1.3 still seems pretty limited in regards to non-wireless features.  For example, nearly every report in 1.3 is for wireless controllers or AP's, there are no reports I've found relevent for switches and routers.  I've read a lot of blogs, cisco posts, and white papers talking about how Cisco Prime Infrastrucure 2.0 will finally consolidate Prime into a truly all-in-one network management suite that can manage the entire Cisco environment.  Does anyone know when it's officially being released?  Does anyone have an tech sheets on what's new in 2.0, or what its capabilities are?  I want to better understand what 2.0 has to offer, when it's coming out, how to upgrade, so I can start planning for the upgrade and eventually importing all our network devices to Cisco Prime for centralized management.  Any useful information or links would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Christian

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 2.0 release date

    What is the release date for Cisco Prime Infrastructure ?  What are the improvement from 1.2 to 2.0 ?
    thanks
    Morgan                  

    It's currently due out 31 August 2013.
    I haven't seen the final release notes but it will incorporate a lot of the features currently in LMS 4.2 for wired infrastructure management that are currently missing in PI 1.x.
    I have heard it will not include Topology or template compliance reports and jobs at 2.0 - those features did not make the development cutoff date for 2.0 but they are projected for 2.1.

  • Cisco Prime infrastructure Change severity Switches and hubs - link down alarm

    Hi, I want to change the severity of the link down alarm in the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3, but in the menu Administration -> System Settings -> Severity Configuration i can not find the alarm. Some body knows where is it? o where i can change the severity of that alarm?
    Thanks in advanced.

    Hi Rollin and Daniel,
    the first test i did changing the severity was with a new installation, with no devices added and it worked, when i did it in a Prime infrastructure with devices added it didn´t work, well, for this Prime with devices i upgraded it with the patch for 1.3 version and now it works too, the alarms is ok as the alarm severity, this is the link for the patch:
    http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=284652876&flowid=38562&softwareid=284272933&release=1.3.0&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=all

  • 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:
    ?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
    <queryResponse type="AccessPointDetails" rootUrl="https://server/webacs/api/v1/data" requestUrl="https://server/webacs/api/v1/data/AccessPointDetails?type=contains(UnifiedAp)&amp;.full=true&amp;.maxResults=1000&amp;.firstResult=0" responseType="listEntityInstances" count="715" first="0" last="714">

    Now, with 2.2, there is not LF anywhere:

    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.

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 clients and users IPs not detected

    Hi all,
    I have cisco PI2.2 and discovered all the network and i notified that there are some clients' IPs (Servers or PCs or Laptops or ....) not detected.
    please advice what may be the issue ? 

    Hi,
    does anyone happen to know if that problem is fixed? My currently setup looks like this:
    1. Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 with updated device pack.
    2. Assurance license
    3. ASA5510 which has enabled netflow. Netflow is being sent to Cisco Prime 2.1
    I do receive netflow raw data within Cisco Prime 2.1 but any graphical display of netflow data is not working. Does anybody has an idea where the problem is? Could it be that the graphical data is only displayed when sending netflow 1, netflow 5 or netflow 7?
    regards

    Hi Aaziz,
    Unfortunately this download of this file is not available anymore on cisco.com site.
    As an alternative, you can download PI 1.3 OVA, where you can find the same features and

  • Can i install Cisco prime infrastructure 1.3 with 1.1 license.

    Can i install Cisco prime infrastructure 1.3 with 1.1 license.To be more precise it will be fresh installation
    but the licenses I have is of 1.1.As per my overview from Cisco prime Infrastructure 1.2 NCS and NCS(WAN)
    has been bundled into one service.But both were seperate entities in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1.

    It doesn't matter if you want to make a new installation or an upgrade. The questions is the license.
    The base license is necessary for network management nodes (devices). But to get updates for your system you need the additional to your Base License the Lifecycle License (which can be ordered for 12, 24 or 36 months).
    The Lifycycle License is also based on the number of managed devices. In your case 50 devices. So you have that License - congratulations!
    Otherwise order the Lifecycle License for 50 devices (L-N-PI12-50-M). This generates CON-PSUU-PI12LF50 for 12 months, list price 414,81$. Then Upgrade from 1.1 to 1.2, patch the system and upgrade to 1.3.
    Have fun,
    Chris

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure - Is there a report of unused switch ports?

    Hello,
    Is there a report in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.4 showing the unused switch ports?
    There used to be one in Cisco Prime LMS (Reclaim Unused Up/Down Ports Report).
    Thank you,
    Luke

    Hello,
    I now have Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 running, and I don't see a report like the "Reclaim Unused Up/Down Ports" report that existed in LMS.
    I found one called "Interface Capacity", but it only shows the number of ports that are "connected", "notconnect" or "disabled".
    Does anyone know if a report of Unused ports exists in Prime Infrastructure 2.0 or if it will be available later on?
    Thank you,
    Luke

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure multitenancy?

    Hi can someone please give me an indication if Cisco Prime Infrastructure supports multitenancy? and if so how this is achieved?
    I would like to monitor/managed multiple customers who may have overlapping private IP subnets
    Thanks

    Hi,
    With CPI v2.0 there is a multi-customer license:
    "L-PI2X-MSP-1 Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.x Multicustomer 1 Customer RTU"
    What is this license intended for?
    Is it safe to assume that CPI v2.0 also does not support multi tenancy?
    Then there is CPI v2.0 for Service Providers.
    "R-PI2X-SP-K9 Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.x Service Provider"
    Is this version multi tenant capable?
    What is the difference between the two?
    Thanks.

    This is by no means a full solution, but deleting and re-adding only takes a few minutes if you use the "Export Device" and "Bulk Import" features from the Device Work Center. You can export the desired devices to a CSV file, delete them, then import from the CSV. 
    Of course, you might lose historical data when deleting the devices, but I'm guessing that's not as relevant since the devices themselves have been replaced by different hardware.

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 - web browser freezes when managing rogue APs alarms

    Hello all,
    has anybody faced a freezing problem when you click in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 down on alarm bar and then to Rogue AP alarms and then try to add an annotitation or change a rogue alarm to Friendly?
    I tried it on different PC, different browsers (Firefox 14.0.1. Chrome ...) and the problem is still there.
    Has anybody an idea?
    Thanks.

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure release 2.1 configuration archiving on CISCO WiSM2

    Hi all,
    Just wondering Cisco Prime Infrastructure  release 2-1 support configuration archiving on CISCO WiSM2?
    CISCO  release 2.0 mentioned that it doesn't support configuration archiving for WiSM2 but release 2.1 doesn't mention anything on it.
    Please assist.

    No, it is not supported even for PI 2.1

  • 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 patch 2.1.1 - HA issue

    Hello,
    I have a problem with the Cisco Prime Infrastructure patched to version 2.1.1. I did exactly what Installation Guidelines say:
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/2-1-1/release/notes/cpi_rn.html
    – Install the Prime Infrastructure 2.1.1 patch by using the Administration > Software Updates page on the primary server.
    – Restart the primary server.
    – Verify that the patch installation is complete. If you find the installation complete, decommission and reinstall the secondary server and add it back to the primary server.
    I reinstalled HA server and I'm trying to add it to HA but I get "Failed to authenticate - Primary(xx.xx.xx.xx) and Secondary(xx.xx.xx.xy) PI version does not match"
    Can you help me with that? What I'm doing wrong? or maybe this patch is not prepared to work in HA mode?
    Regards

    Symptom:
    The installation instructions of PI 2.1.1 patch in a High Availability environment are not accurate and following these steps will result in the inability to re-pair the Primary and Secondary servers.
    Conditions:
    If the instructions are followed, then when the user attempts to re-pair the servers, an error will be encountered:
    "High Availability Registration Failed - Failed to authenticate - Primary (x.x.x.1) and Secondary (x.x.x.2) PI version does not match".
    Instead, the following steps have proved to work correctly:
    1. Upload and install patch on primary.
    2. Upload and install patch on secondary.
    3. Stop NCS services on secondary
    4. Stop NCS services on primary
    5. Start services on secondary
    6. Start services on primary
    7. Re-pair HA servers from primary
    Workaround:
    Workaround 1:
    On the secondary, go under root and issue:
    # cd /opt/CSCOlumos/bin/
    # ./hamode.sh primary
    Answer 'yes' when prompted.
    Go to admin user and execute
    # ncs stop
    After the services are stopped:
    # ncs start
    When the services are back up, login to the secondary GUI as you would login to a primary server
    Go under Administration > Software update, upload the patch and install it.
    Go to admin user and execute
    # ncs stop
    After the services are stopped:
    # ncs start
    When the services are up, go under root and issue:
    # cd /opt/CSCOlumos/bin/
    # ./hamode.sh secondary
    Answer 'yes' when prompted.
    Go to admin user and execute
    # ncs stop
    After the services are stopped:
    # ncs start
    After the message that services started successfully on the secondary, initiate a new High Availability configuration from the primary. Now the synchronization between the two servers should succeed.
    Workaround 2:
    Redeploy or reinstall the Primary server, restore the backup which was taken prior to applying the patch, reconfigure the High Availability and continue with the steps described in the Conditions section.
    Further Problem Description:
    Release Notes have been updated with more precise instructions.
    Known Affected Releases:
    (1)
    2.1(0.0.85)

    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.
