Introduction
Cisco 12000 Manager (C12kM) is an Element Manager (EM) that works in conjunction with the Cisco Element Management Framework (Cisco EMF) to enable service providers to plan, provision, configure, and monitor network services on Cisco 12000 series Internet routers. C12kM is designed to meet operator business requirements for the control and operation of the Cisco 12000 series Internet routers. C12kM eases and accelerates device deployment and enables efficient operation of Cisco 12000 series Internet router network environments; for example, by supporting template-based QoS interface configuration and complex fault isolation applications for efficient maintenance of Cisco 12000 series Internet router based services.
C12kM Features
C12kM features include the following:
•
AutoDiscovery—Automatically discovers existing Cisco 12000 series Internet routers and uses Sub-chassis discovery to determine the physical chassis contents, such as line cards and interfaces
•
C12kM deployment—Eases deployment of large networks by enabling template-based network element configuration
•
Interface profiles—Enables you to apply the same parameters to a large number of objects at one time
•
Layer 3 QoS support—Includes Committed Access Rate (CAR), Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED), and Modified Deficit Round Robin (MDRR)
•
Configuration Backup/Restore—Backs up and saves the running configuration of a device and its modules so that if a hardware failure occurs, you can restore configuration
•
Configuration Editor—Uploads and saves the running configuration on a device for editing
•
Configuration operations—Performs in bulk to numerous Cisco 12000 series Internet routers
•
C12kM windows and wizards—Eliminate the need for operators to have detailed Cisco IOS and SNMP-based knowledge for individual interface or system parameter commands
•
Comprehensive fault management system—Manages chassis, line card, and interface levels.
–
Inventory and Capacity Planning—Provides details of the Cisco 12000 series Internet routers in the network and performance statistics for planning and diagnostics
•
Line cards and interfaces— Supports various line cards and interfaces, such as Synchronous Optical Network (SONET), packet-over-SONET (POS), Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Digital Signal 3 (DS3), and Gigabit and Fast Ethernet
•
Cisco IOS releases—Easily downloads new software releases from C12kM onto devices
•
PVCs and associated QoS profiles—Uploads existing PVCs and associated QoS profiles from any device into C12kM
C12kM delivers these management functions within Cisco EMF. Cisco EMF provides consistency across a common user interface, operational event management, auto map building, and common data management for various Cisco element managers. Cisco EMF also provides a robust foundation and toolkit for building scalable CORBA-based provisioning integration modules for customer's specific Operational Support System (OSS) environments.
C12kM and Cisco EMF are part of the Cisco Service Management (CSM) suite, a strategic component of Cisco's products and solutions for New World Operations.
Note
C12kM release 2.1.1 has not been validated to co-exist with any other Cisco EMF EM. A programme of inter-operability testing is in progress and customers should contact Cisco to determine if they can load C12kM with another EM on the same Cisco EMF system.
New Software Features in C12kM Release 2.1.1
Release 2.1.1 of C12kM adds the following functionality to release 2.1:
•
The following additional hardware is supported:
–
Support for 10 Port Giga Ethernet card
–
Support for 16 Port POS OC3 STM1 (ISE) card
–
Support for 4 Port POS OS12 STM4 (ISE) card
•
Support for the Cisco 12404 Internet router chassis
•
Support for Uploading the PVC Connections created with "Label" in the Cisco 12000 series Internet routers
•
Support for applying CAR Policies for 10 Port Giga Ethernet card
•
Support for Cisco IOS releases 12.0(11)S, 12.0(12)S, 12.0(13)S2, 12.0(14)S, 12.0(15)S, 12.0(16)S2, 12.0(16)ST, 12.0(16)S3,12.0(17)S, 12.0(17)S1, 12.0(17)ST, 12.0(17)ST1, 12.0(18)S and 12.0(18)ST
Since the 10 Port Giga Ethernet line card supports restricted options to configure a CAR Policy, users must ensure that the created CAR policy for 10 Port Giga Ethernet has only the Supported Rate-Limit Options described below:
1.
CAR Policy Traffic Direction restricted to Input Only.
2.
Rate-limit ACL can be only IP-Precedence (ACL Index can have only 1-99).
3.
CAR Policy Confirm-Action can be: Drop, Transmit and Set Prec. to X transmit.
4.
CAR Policy Exceed-Action can be: Drop, Transmit and Set Prec. to Y transmit.
System Requirements
Table 1 details the system requirements for C12kM release 2.1.1.
Note
In lab trials, it is possible to run Cisco EMF v3.1 and C12kM release 2.1.1 on the Sun Ultra 60 workstation, with the reduced specifications for RAM memory. Note, however, that the applications may appear slow.
Please contact Cisco for advice and constancy on planning large scale deployments (>50 Cisco 12000 series Internet routers).
CautionIt is particularly important that any Sun workstation running Cisco EMF release 3.1 EMs, such as C12kM, has sufficient swap space (2GB) and RAM (512 MB Minimum). Do not install this software on machines without this minimum specification.
Note
Use the Solaris commands
swap -sandprtconfto determine the available amount of swap and RAM (respectively) on your machine.
Software Compatibility
This software release has been tested on release 2.6 of the Solaris operating environment, for Sun SPARC workstations, and for Year 2000 Compliance.
Table 2 details software compatibility for C12kM release 2.11.
Determining the Software Version
To determine installed Cisco EMF packages, and version numbers, use the Cisco EMF command:
<CEMFROOT>/bin/cemf install -show
Note
<CEMFROOT> is the convention adopted in Cisco EMF documentation to indicate the installation directory for Cisco EMF and the C12kM software. This default location is:
/opt/cemf
Version Supported
In particular, for this C12kM release, the following components must be installed:
•
Cisco EMF v3.1
•
Cisco EMF v3.1 patch 5.
Note
Cisco EMF v3.1 installation instructions can be found in the Installation and Administration Guide at the following URL:

Upgrading to C12kM Release 2.1.1
This section describes the upgrade procedure for C12kM release 2.1.1.
Upgrade Procedure
C12kM release 2.1.1 can be upgraded from an earlier release.
To Upgrade from C12kM Release 2.0.1 to C12kM Release 2.1.1
Follow the same instructions for upgrading from 2.0.1 to 2.1. This information is available in the Cisco 12000 Manager Installation Guide (OL-1260-01) http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/rtrmgmt/c12km/2_1/install/index.htm
To Upgrade from C12kM Release 2.1 to Release 2.1.1
Note
Before upgrading from C12kM release 2.1 to release 2.1.1, make sure you have the Cisco EMF Relesase 3.1, patch 5 installed.
To upgrade to release C12kM 2.1.1 from release 2.1, select the install option in the installation scripts as specified in the the Cisco 12000 Manager Installation Guide (OL-1260-01) http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/rtrmgmt/c12km/2_1/install/index.htm.
Cisco EMF Installation Parameters

Solaris patches none (but it is recommendation to use Sun's recommended patch set).
The multiple disk set-up is for performance/scale reasons only and for a small lab deployment is not essential.
Known Limitations in this Release
The following Cisco 12000 series Internet router modules are not supported by this release:
•
All SRP (DPT) Line Cards
•
All Channelized Line Cards
Important Notes: Adding Additional Swap Space
C12kM release 2.1.1 running on Cisco EMF v3.1 requires 2GB of swap space. In general, if your machine requires additional swap space, you are advised to re-partition one of the disks to allocate a new swap partition.
Use the Solaris command format (1M) and in particular, the partition option of this command to partition appropriate swap space.
Note
Please consult a Solaris system administrator if you must re-partition an existing disk in order to increase swap space, as re-partitioning a disk means that you will lose all data on that disk.
A simple, but less efficient (in performance terms) method of increasing swap space is to create a file and add it to your available swap. The following example shows how to add 1GB swap to your Sun workstation (assuming sufficient available free disk space):
mkfile 1000m /opt/MY_EXTRA_SWAP_FILE
swap -a /opt/MY_EXTRA_SWAP_FILETo ensure that this file is added to your swap after a system reboot, please remember to add it to the
/etc/vfstabfile on your machine. If in doubt, please consult a Solaris system administrator.
Note
This is not a particularly efficient swap file system, and will result in slower application performance.

This section describes known POS issues.
CSCdu76935 (severity 3)
Problem: The "Switch to Circuit" attribute is not configured correctly in the Cisco 12000 series Internet router when an interface is configured as APS Protect for the first time.
Workaround: After completing the Set operation need to select the required value for the "Switch to Circuit" attribute again and save the changes.
CSCdu75763 (severity 3)
Problem: If POS APS is configured for more than eight interfaces in the Cisco 12000 series Internet router, then the APS Status dialog will not populate values correctly. If the number of POS APS Configuration is less than eight then the values are populated correctly.
No Workaround.
Cisco EMF
This section describes known Cisco EMF issues.
In the bottom part of every window there is a status bar which displays full hierarchy of the object which is managed by the form, with the status of every object of the hierarchy: this message is truncated so that only first part of the hierarchy is fully readable.
CSCuk23323 (severity 3)
1.
Not able to commission a real Cisco 12000 series Internet router 12008 chassis after having 50 Cisco 12016 chassis commissioned to Normal and 100% Performance Polling Enabled.The module objects are going to Discovery Lost Comms/Mis-Matched state. Similar problems when a line card is inserted into the managed chassis, the subsequent Sub-Rack discovery causes objects going to Mis-matched /DiscLostComms.
Workaround: De-Commission and Commission those objects in Discovery LostComms. Decommission and delete those objects in Mis-Matched state.Manually deploy those objects and commission the same.
2.
Deploying 75 Cisco 12016 chassis (No Performance Polling). Commission 75 Cisco 12016 chassis to Normal. Commissioning another set of 5 Cisco 12016 chassis causes line cards moving to DiscoveryLostComms and Mis-Matched states. Also for some chassis objects the POS and ATM line cards have got the interfaces discovered as Generic interfaces. Chassis commissioning is successful if you commission one or two chassis at a time after having 75 Cisco 12016 chassis in Normal State.
No workaround.
CSCdt52698 (severity 3)
Problem: The Map Viewer application hangs when deleting a module or modules or a chassis object from Map viewer application. This problem is inconsistent.
Workaround: Close and re-open the Map Viewer application.
CSCdu29988 (severity 3)
Problem: MAC address values such as 222.2233.4455 are sometimes converted to garbage, for example, '"""3.DU'.This happens when: MAC addresses are represented internally as a six bytes string. The garbage values only appear if all six bytes of the MAC address are "displayable". In this case Cisco EMF sometimes becomes confused and treats the MAC address as a displayable string. Cisco EMF regards the following (hexadecimal) byte values as displayable: 09, 0A, 0B, 0C, 0D. Any value in the range 20-7E. If any one of your six MAC address bytes is outside this set then this problem does not apply.
Workaround: Avoid creating CAR policy with MAC access list.
CSCuk23525
Problem: Any databased performance data collected against objects in a C12kM version 2.0.1 installation will be lost during the upgrade process to C12kM 2.1.1.
Workaround: Performance data can be exported to a flat file prior to the upgrade so that a record can be maintained. There is a command line utility, historyAdmin, which should be used for this. historyAdmin exports data on the basis of History Criteria. These are specifications of which performance data should be stored in the CEMF database and are defined in a series of files in the
<CEMFROOT>/config/dataload/historyCriteriadirectory. The historyAdmin utility expects a criteria name as an argument. The following criteria names are relevant for C12kM:CiscoIPOverATMEndpointOverSONETwithWREDhistoryCriteria - data for ATM interface objects
CiscoIPoverDS3withWREDhistoryCriteria - data for DS3 interface objects
CiscoIPoverEthernetwithWREDhistoryCriteria - data for Ethernet interfaceobjects
CiscoIPoverPOSoverSONETwithWREDhistoryCriteria - data for POS interface objects
gsrgrpHistoryCriteria - data for GRP Line Card objects
For each of these criteria, the following command should be used:
historyAdmin export <filename> <separator> <max file size(KB)> [all |
<number_of_days>] [summary|raw] <criteria name>
Example:
historyAdmin export ethernetPerfData TAB 500 all raw CiscoIPoverEthernetwithWREDhistoryCriteria
This will produce a file with contents similar to the following:
Object:
Physical:/Site-2/GSRShelf-10.51.20.105/GSR12008-10.51.20.105/RP5/Ethernet-5-0
Object Class:CiscoIPoverEthernetwithWRED

Inquiries to Cisco TAC are categorized according to the urgency of the issue:
•
Priority level 4 (P4)—You need information or assistance concerning Cisco product capabilities, product installation, or basic product configuration.
•
Priority level 3 (P3)—Your network performance is degraded. Network functionality is noticeably impaired, but most business operations continue.
•
Priority level 2 (P2)—Your production network is severely degraded, affecting significant aspects of business operations. No workaround is available.
•
Priority level 1 (P1)—Your production network is down, and a critical impact to business operations will occur if service is not restored quickly. No workaround is available.
Which Cisco TAC resource you choose is based on the priority of the problem and the conditions of service contracts, when applicable.
Cisco TAC Web Site
The Cisco TAC Web Site allows you to resolve P3 and P4 issues yourself, saving both cost and time. The site provides around-the-clock access to online tools, knowledge bases, and software. To access the Cisco TAC Web Site, go to the following URL:
All customers, partners, and resellers who have a valid Cisco services contract have complete access to the technical support resources on the Cisco TAC Web Site.
