Introduction

This document describes the basic software configuration steps along with alarm and performance data monitoring for Cisco Network Convergence System (NCS)1002 (Rosco).

Prerequisites

Requirements

Cisco recommends you have knowledge of these topics:

- NCS1002

- Cisco IOS®-XR Platform specific system with optical products knowledge

Components Used

The information in this document is based on these software and hardware versions:

- NCS1002

- Cisco IOS®-XR VM console login

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Background Information

The NCS1002 is a 2 Rollup (RU) system that delivers fully programmable, High-bandwidth capacity (up to 250 Gbps) wavelengths over distances that exceeds 3000 km with the use of current fiber. Powered by the industry-leading Cisco IOS® XR operating system, Cisco NCS 1002 offers robust functions such as third party application hosting, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) interface, telemetry and flexible package delivery.

NCS 1002 delivers these benefits:

- Supports up to 2 Tbps capacity

- Transports 100, 200, or 250 Gbps per wavelength on the same platform through software provisioning

- Transports 10 GE and 100 GE on the same platform through software provisioning

- Supports grid-less tuning for flex-grid Dense Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (DWDM)

- Supports different modulation formats (PM-QPSK or PM-16QAM)

- Supports 7% or 20% Soft Decision (SD) FEC for maximum optical performance

- Allows for automated installation, configuration and monitoring

- Supports M2M APIs based on Yet Another Next Generation (YANG) models for ease of configuration

- Supports a telemetry agent for a pub-sub model of device monitoring

Configure

Set and Verify Management IP

Before you begin:

- Consult your network administrator or system planner to procure IP addresses and a subnet mask for the management port

- Ensure that the management port is connected to management network

SNMP

- Configuring SNMP V2C on Cisco IOS®-XR

The configuration you need in order to enable SNMP V2c get/set requests:

RP/0/0/CPU0:smart-prp16#conf t

RP/0/0/CPU0:smart-prp16(config)#

RP/0/0/CPU0:smart-prp16(config)#snmp-server community public RW SystemOwner

RP/0/0/CPU0:smart-prp16(config)#commit

RP/0/0/CPU0:smart-prp16#

RP/0/0/CPU0:smart-prp16#show running-config snmp-server

snmp-server community public RW SystemOwner

Explanation of Configuration:

In configuration "public" is the community string and it be any text.

The Options RW and SystemOwner provides Read/Write to the entire system, including admin plane. If you need access to just the SDR (secure Domain Router),

then you can choose option "SDROwner"

You can also apply an Access list to the SNMP server. You can use command.

#snmp-server community public RW SDROwner my_acl_ravi

Where my_acl_ravi is an ACL.

Use command to verify the SNMP configuration.

Follow the steps:

SNMPV3

Configure an SNMP View

----------------------

Command Syntax:

snmp-server view view-name oid-tree included

Where

view-name: is the name of the View

oid-tree: Object identifier (OID) of the ASN.1 subtree to be included or excluded from the view.

To identify the subtree, specify a text string consisting of numbers, such as 1.3.6.2.4, or a word,

such as system. Replace a single sub-identifier with the asterisk wildcard to specify a subtree family; for example 1.3.*.4.

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki(config)#snmp-server view view1 1.3 included

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki(config)#commit

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#show snmp view

view1 org - included nonVolatile active

v1default iso - included nonVolatile active

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#

- Configure an SNMP Group:

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki(config)#snmp-server group group1 v3 priv write view1 read view1

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki(config)#commit

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#show running-config snmp-server group snmp-server group group1 v3 priv read view1 write view1

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#show snmp group groupname: group1 security model:usm readview : view1 writeview: view1 notifyview: v1default row status: nonVolatile

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#

- Configure an SNMP User:

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki(config)#snmp-server user user1 group1 v3 auth md5 clear lab priv des56 clear lab SystemOwner

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki(config)#commit

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki(config)#

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#show snmp users

User name: user1

Engine ID: localSnmpID

storage-type: nonvolatile active

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#show running-config snmp-server user

snmp-server user user1 group1 v3 auth md5 encrypted 13091610 priv des56 encrypted 09404F0B SystemOwner

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#

So far we need lines for V3 SNMP

RP/0/RP1/CPU0:akki#show running-config snmp-server

snmp-server user user1 group1 v3 auth md5 encrypted 13091610 priv des56 encrypted 09404F0B SystemOwner

snmp-server view view1 1.3 included

snmp-server group group1 v3 priv read view1 write view1

With this you have setup the configuration on the router for V3 Requests.

Refer Setting Up Host for V3 SNMP Requests.

Telemetry

Streaming telemetry lets the user’s direct data to a configured receiver for analysis and troubleshooting purposes in order to maintain the health of the network. This is achieved by leveraging the capabilities of M2M communication.

Traditionally, organizations used the pull model to collect data, where a client pulls data from network elements. This pull model, however, does not scale when there is more than one network management station in the network. These traditional techniques do not cater to all the underlying information of the router, and they require manual intervention.

Netconf and SSH

Netconf provides mechanisms to install, manipulate, and delete the configuration of network devices.

The Netconf protocol provides a set of operations to manage device configurations and retrieve device state information.

- Verify the installation of k9sec package

- Generate the crypto key for Secure Shell (SSH) with the use of the crypto key generate dsa command

- Configure SSH

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios# configure

RP/0/RP0/CPU0(config)# ssh server v2

RP/0/RP0/CPU0(config)# ssh server netconf port 830

RP/0/RP0/CPU0(config)# ssh server netconf vrf default

Note: Port 830 is the default Netconf port.

- Configure Netconf:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios# configure

RP/0/RP0/CPU0(config)# netconf-yang agent ssh

- Display the client details for netconf-yang, run the show netconf-yang clients command in EXEC mode.
