Feature Overview

The Cisco Service Assurance Agent (SAA) is an embedded performance monitoring utility in Cisco IOS software. The Service Assurance Agent for ATM Interfaces (SAA ATM) feature expands the capabilities of SAA by using service level monitoring (SLM) and ATM performance monitoring techniques to provide detailed monitoring statistics for your ATM network. SLM and ATM performance monitoring techniques include gathering physical link and circuit performance statistics. Monitoring service levels for ATM connections allows service providers to ensure that their networks are meeting or exceeding the performance outlined in service level agreements (SLAs).

The SAA ATM feature can also be used with Cisco Networking Services (CNS). A device running CNS, such as the IE2100, can be used to retrieve the ATM performance statistics generated by the SAA. Additionally, these results can be passed to other devices running third-party monitoring software, such as Visual Networks "Uptime" application.

Benefits

By leveraging the performance management capabilities included in Cisco IOS software, users can perform advanced monitoring directly on their existing Integrated Access Devices (IADs), thereby eliminating the need for purchasing additional dedicated monitoring devices. For large networks, this represents a potentially large cost savings.

Restrictions

•Only T1 ATM interfaces are supported in this release.

•ATM performance statistics cannot be retrieved from the Cisco IOS devices using SNMP. This feature was designed to provide data by responding to extensible markup language (XML) requests.

Supported Platforms

The SAA ATM feature is supported on the following platforms in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(11)T:

•Cisco IAD2420 Smart Integrated Access Device (IAD)

•Cisco 2600 Series with T1 interfaces (Cisco 2650 and 2651 Modular Access Routers)

•Cisco 3660 Series with T1 ATM interfaces

•Cisco MC3810 Multiservice Access Concentrators

Platforms above must have ATM interfaces for monitoring to be effective. Monitoring operations can be configured only when the appropriate hardware is available. For example, T1 Inverse Multiplexing over ATM (IMA) monitoring is supported for the Multiport T1 ATM Network Module on Cisco 2600 and Cisco 3600 series routers.

Prerequisites

Tasks in this document assume you have one or more ATM connections configured, and that you are familiar with SAA configuration.

The oam-pvc manage command should be configured on the system to maintain the correct status for the monitored permanent virtual circuits (PVCs).

Configuration Tasks

See the following sections for configuration tasks for the SAA ATM feature. Each task in the list is identified as either required or optional.

•Enabling SAA ATM (Required)

•Configuring SAA ATM Performance Monitoring Operations (Required)

–Configuring a T1 Performance Monitoring Operation

–Configuring a PVC Performance Monitoring Operation

–Configuring an ATM Performance Monitoring Operation

Enabling SAA ATM

Before configuring any SAA ATM operations, you must first enable the SAA ATM feature. To enable ATM performance monitoring, use the following command in global configuration mode:

Command
Purpose

Router(config)# atm slm statistics

Enables SAA to collect ATM performance monitoring statistics.


Configuring SAA ATM Performance Monitoring Operations

ATM performance monitoring statistics are gathered using the Service Assurance Agent. Response time and availability information is generated by SAA operations that you configure on the router; these operations use probe packets to simulate other forms of network traffic. The characteristics of that traffic are determined by the type of operation you configure.

The SAA ATM feature introduces three new SAA operations:

•The T1 performance monitoring operation monitors a specific controller (or group of controllers) by generating statistics for the physical connection layer.

•The PVC performance monitoring operation monitors the performance over one or more ATM PVCs by generating statistics for the ATM circuit connection layer.

•The ATM performance monitoring operation monitors the ATM interface by generating statistics for the ATM link connection layer.

For example, suppose you have configured ATM on a T1 controller on an MC3810. To monitor the performance of this ATM interface, you would want to generate performance data for the T1 controller, the ATM interface, and the ATM VC. By using the SAA operations listed above, you can generate the needed controller (DS1) statistics, ATM interface statistics, and ATM VC statistics.

To get the full ATM performance monitoring statistics, you should configure all three operations.

Configuring a T1 Performance Monitoring Operation

You can configure a T1 performance monitoring operation on a specific controller or on an Inverse Multiplexing over ATM (IMA) group of controllers.

To configure a T1 performance monitoring operation on a T1 controller, use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1 

Router(config)# rtr operation-id

Specifies an identification number for the operation being configured, and enters SAA response time reporter (RTR) configuration mode.

Step 2 

Router(config-rtr)# type t1-slm controller controller-id

Configures the operation as a T1 performance monitoring operation, originating from the specified controller, and enters SAA RTR SLM configuration mode.

Step 3 

Router(config-rtr-slm)# enhanced-history interval seconds buckets number-of-buckets

Enables SAA enhanced history for the operation. Performance statistics are stored in "buckets," which keep the accumulated data separate from each other. Each bucket consists of data accumulated over the specified interval. For ATM operations, each bucket consists of 15 minutes (900 seconds) worth of statistics. The following line will be written to the configuration: 

enhanced-history interval 900 buckets 100

Note Regardless of the values entered for seconds and number-of-buckets, the default value of 25 hours (100 history buckets, each with 900-second intervals) will be used. Your input is overridden in the ATM operations so that complete SLM statistics can be provided.

Step 4 

Router(config-rtr-slm)# exit

Exits from SAA RTR SLM configuration mode.

Step 5  

Router(config-rtr)# rtr schedule 
operation-number start-time { hh:mm[:ss] 
[month day | day month] | pending | now | 
after hh:mm:ss }

Specifies when the operation should start.

To configure a T1 performance monitoring operation on a T1 IMA group, use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1 

Router(config)# rtr operation-id

Specifies an identification number for the operation being configured, and enters SAA RTR configuration mode.

Step 2 

Router(config-rtr)# type t1-slm interface ima-interface-number

Configures the operation as a T1 performance monitoring operation for the specific IMA group and enters SAA RTR SLM configuration mode.

Step 3 

Router(config-rtr-slm)# enhanced-history interval seconds buckets number-of-buckets

Enables SAA enhanced history for the operation. Performance statistics are stored in "buckets," which keep the accumulated data separate from each other. Each bucket consists of data accumulated over the specified interval. For ATM operations, each bucket consists of 15 minutes (900 seconds) worth of statistics. The following line will be written to the configuration: 

enhanced-history interval 900 buckets 100

Note Regardless of the values entered for seconds and number-of-buckets, the default value of 25 hours (100 history buckets, each with 900-second intervals) will be used. Your input is overridden in the ATM operations so that complete performance monitoring statistics can be provided.

Step 4 

Router(config-rtr-slm)# exit

Exits from SAA RTR SLM configuration mode.

Step 5  

Router(config-rtr)# rtr schedule 
operation-number start-time { hh:mm[:ss] 
[month day | day month] | pending | now | 
after hh:mm:ss }

Specifies when the operation should start.

Configuring a PVC Performance Monitoring Operation

The permanent virtual circuit (PVC) SAA operation monitors the performance over one or more ATM virtual circuits (VCs) by generating statistics at ATM circuit connection layer.

To configure an ATM PVC performance monitoring operation, use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1 

Router(config)# rtr operation-id

Specifies an identification number for the operation being configured, and enters SAA RTR configuration mode.

Step 2 

Router(config-rtr)# type slm interface atm-interface-id pvc pvc-number

Enables SAA enhanced history for the operation. Performance statistics are stored in "buckets," which keep the accumulated data separate from each other. Each bucket consists of data accumulated over the specified interval. For ATM operations, each bucket consists of 15 minutes (900 seconds) worth of statistics. The following line will be written to the configuration: 

enhanced-history interval 900 buckets 100

Note Regardless of the values entered for seconds and number-of-buckets, the default value of 25 hours (100 history buckets, each with 900-second intervals) will be used. Your input is overridden in the ATM operations so that complete performance monitoring statistics can be provided.

Step 4 

Router(config-rtr-slm)# exit

Exits from SAA RTR SLM configuration mode.

Step 5  

Router(config-rtr)# rtr schedule 
operation-number [start-time {hh:mm[:ss] 
[month day | day month] | pending | now | 
after hh:mm:ss}]

Specifies when the operation should start.

Configuring an ATM Performance Monitoring Operation

The ATM performance monitoring operation generates statistics for the ATM interface at the link connection layer.

To configure an ATM performance monitoring operation, use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1 

Router(config)# rtr operation-id

Specifies an identification number for the operation being configured, and enters SAA RTR configuration mode.

Step 2 

Router(config-rtr)# type atm-slm interface atm-interface-id

Configures the operation as an ATM performance monitoring operation for the specified ATM interface, and enters SAA RTR SLM configuration mode.

Step 3 

Router(config-rtr-slm)# enhanced-history interval seconds buckets number-of-buckets

The following line will be written to the configuration: 

enhanced-history interval 900 buckets 100

Note Regardless of the values entered for seconds and number-of-buckets, the default value of 25 hours (100 history buckets, each with 900-second intervals) will be used. Your input is overridden in the ATM operations so that complete performance monitoring statistics can be provided.

Step 4 

Router(config-rtr-slm)# exit

Exits from SAA RTR SLM configuration mode.

Step 5  

Router(config-rtr)# rtr schedule 
operation-number [start-time {hh:mm[:ss] 
[month day | day month] | pending | now | 
after hh:mm:ss}]

Specifies when the operation should start.

Note Unlike other SAA operations, you do not enable the SAA Responder on the operational target (replying) device. Instead, to get the full monitoring statistics for ATM connections, you should enable all three ATM operations on both the sending (agent) device and replying (target) device. The SAA will automatically retrieve the additional statistics generated when the ATM operations are configured on the target device. For ATM performance monitoring operations, it may be helpful to think of the routers as "near-end" and "far-end" devices instead of as "sending" and "replying" devices.

Monitoring ATM Service Levels

To view the gathered statistics for the enabled SAA ATM performance monitoring operations, use one or both of the following commands in EXEC mode:

Command
Purpose

Router# show rtr operational-state operation-number

Displays the state of the specified operation, including statistics from the last probe operation.

Router# show rtr enhanced-history operation-number

Displays aggregated data for the specified SAA operation.

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

Collection of ATM performance monitoring statistics is disabled.

Command Modes

Global configuration mode

Command History

Release
Modification

12.2(11)T

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

To generate and retrieve performance statistics for ATM services using SAA, the SAA ATM feature must first be enabled on the device using the atm-slm statistics global configuration command. (Note that these performance statistics can be retrieved by other applications such as CNS or Visual Uptime.) If this command is not used, other SAA operations (type atm-slm, type slm, or type t1-slm) can not be configured on the system. Service level monitoring (SLM) techniques include gathering physical link and circuit performance statistics.

Disabling the SAA ATM feature with the no atm-slm statistics command will cause any currently configured SAA performance monitoring operations to be removed from the configuration. When SAA ATM is disabled, no CNS/XML requests are processed.

Examples

In the following example, the SAA ATM feature is enabled to collect ATM performance monitoring statistics before a permanent virtual circuit (PVC) SAA performance monitoring operation is configured for ATM interface 0/1: 

Router(config)# atm-slm statistics

Router(config)# rtr 1

Router(config-rtr)# type atm-slm interface ATM0/1

To configure a T1 Service Assurance Agent (SAA) performance monitoring operation, use the type t1-slm command in SAA response time reporter (RTR) configuration mode. To disable a T1 SAA performance monitoring operation, use the no form of this command.

type t1-slm {controller t1 controller-number | interface ima-identification-number }

no type t1-slm {controller t1 controller-number | interface ima-identification-number }

Syntax Description

controller t1 controller-number

Specifies the T1 controller for the operation.

interface ima-interface-number

Specifies the Inverse Multiplexing over ATM (IMA) group for the operation.


Defaults

No T1 SAA performance monitoring operations are configured.

Usage Guidelines

You can configure a T1 SAA performance monitoring operation on a specific controller, or on an Inverse Multiplexing over ATM (IMA) group of controllers.

This command puts you into SAA RTR configuration mode, and should be followed by the enhanced-history configuration command. For ATM SAA operations, the default of one hundred 900-second history buckets should be used.

SAA ATM must be enabled on the device by entering the atm slm statistics global configuration command in order for operational statistics to be generated. Service level monitoring (SLM) techniques include gathering physical link and circuit performance statistics.

Examples

In the following example, SAA operation 5 is configured as a T1 SAA performance monitoring operation: 

Router(config)# rtr 5 

Router(config-rtr)# type t1-slm controller T1 0/0

Router(config-rtr-slm)# enhanced-history interval 900 buckets 100

Router(config-rtr)# rtr schedule 5 start-time now life forever
