Introduction
Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager 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 12000/10720 internet routers. Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager is designed to meet the operator business requirements for the control and operation of the Cisco 12000/10720 internet routers. Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager eases and accelerates device deployment and enables efficient operation of Cisco 12000/10720 internet router network environments; for example, by supporting template-based QoS interface configuration and complex fault isolation applications for efficient maintenance of Cisco 12000/10720 internet router based services.

Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager 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-specific Operational Support System (OSS) environments.
Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager 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.

Caveats
This section describes known issues with the features provided by Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager v3.1.
CEMF Issues
This section describes the known CEMF issues.
CSCin36736
Problem: In MPLS Tunnel Information dialog, IpV6 Address attribute is not displayed properly in Head Tunnel Hops Tab and LSP Hops Tab.
Workaround: None
Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager Issues
This section describes the known Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager related issues.
CSCea52670
Problem: In OAM Ping Tab for ATM VCL Configuration dialog the error message is not proper if the ping operation fails, when selected card is in the Admin Down state.
Workaround: None
CSCin38332
Problem: The field "Redundancy Mode" present in both RPR Config and RPR Status dialogs shows truncated information for some temporary states of RP. The temporary states are "RPR Plus (standby)" and "RPR Plus (standby initalization)". This problem occurs just after a switchover.
Workaround: None
CSCin38351
Problem: In OAM Ping Tab for ATM VCL Configuration Dialog, default values should be displayed for Repeat Count, Timeout In Second and Loopback Type, when a new PVC is selected in OAM Ping Tab.
Workaround: None
Routing Issues
This section describes the known Routing issues.
CSCea33825
Problem: In the BGP Configuration window, the attributes in the BGP Information frame of the BGP-Details tab, are populated with values even if BGP is not configured for that chassis. Similarly, in the OSPF Status dialog, General Group / Interface tab populates when no OSPF is configured on the device.
Workaround: None
CSCin39598
Problem: On removing the Address-Family from the EM using Configure Address Family dialog the selected chassis disappears from the chassis selector list and the dialog is greyed out.
Workaround: Close the Configure Address Family dialog and reopen it for any other selected address family from the AF-General tab in BGP Address Family Configuration dialog.
CSCin40960
Problem: In the Enable BGP dialog, validation is not provided for the "Local Autonomous System" attribute when the value is set to either zero or any negative number. A wrong action report is displayed.
Workaround: If Proper values are given (with in the valid range) the BGP will be configured in the device properly.
CSCin41998
Problem: On removal of an address family through the EM the running-config is not copied to the startup-config sometimes.
Workaround: On removal of an address family through the EM the write mem operation should be performed explicitly by launching the Chassis Configuration dialog and selecting the writeMem action button present in the Device Management tab.
MPLS/VRF Issues
This section describes the known MPLS/VRF issues.
CSCin37046
Problem: Special Characters are not allowed for naming the VRF objects during deployment.
Workaround: Use strings with alphabets and numbers to deploy vrf objects.
CSCin36791
Problem: In the MPLS Traps Configuration Dialog, Auto Refresh behavior is not proper when the authentication information is changed to an incorrect value for the selected chassis in the chassis list and when the value is changed back to the previous value.
Workaround: Manually refreshing the MPLS Trap Configuration dialog will populate values correctly.
CSCin38505
Problem: Auto Refresh does not happen for the VRF Object Status dialog for the first time as well as when the VRF is removed from the device using CLI. Sometimes, auto refresh may fail for the Interface VRF Status dialog.
Workaround: All values will be populated correctly after manually refreshing the dialogs.
CSCin38656
Problem: For any configuration changes on a VRF in the device, the dialog does not refresh even after reselecting the same VRF or moving from one VRF to another in the list. Also refreshing the dialog causes the first VRF to be selected always instead of refreshing and highlighting the already selected VRF.
Workaround: Manually refresh the VRF Status dialog and then select the required VRF Object from the VRF list.
IOS Issues
This section describes the known IOS issues.
CSCin35210
Problem: The mplsVrfIfUp and mplsVrfIfDown traps should be supported at the interface level.
Workaround: Currently these traps are raised as alarms against the chassis and can be viewed by launching Event Browser against the chassis.
CSCin38292
Problem: The problem exists for a Chassis having dual RP/PRP cards for redundancy running the image previous to 25(S). When we switchover the Performance RPs in any of the modes (RPR,RPR Plus or SSO), then the card type of 16-port OC-3 ISE POS linecard is changing. It is changing from gsr-e48-pos-16oc3-sm-ir-lc(1926) to gsr-e48-pos-16oc3-mm-sr-mtrj(3006) after switchover. This is causing the linecard in Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager to be incorrectly identified as a mismatched module due to change of card Type.
Workaround: None
CSCin37225
Problem: After inserting a new linecard against a managed chassis, running IOS 12.0(24)S or 12.0(25)S, the Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager discovers only the module object for the inserted linecard. The interfaces are not discovered, as the IF Table is not updated properly.
Workaround: Recommission the module after the linecard is moved to the IOS RUN state in the device. All the interface objects have been deployed and commissioned successfully.
