About This Guide

This user guide describes managing command scripts. Command scripts enable the user to execute a programmable sequence of SNMP or Telnet command lines. These commands can include data properties taken from the Cisco Active Network Abstration (ANA) information model (built-in), as well as user-defined input parameters entered during runtime.

In addition, it describes the ANA Macro Language, its syntax, how to use parameters, pragmas and a detailed example for writing ANA Macro Language scripts. This guide is intended for use by programmers who want to write command scripts that are executed within the Cisco ANA activation framework.

It includes the following chapters:

•Chapter 1, "Introducing the Command Builder" describes the Command Builder tool.

•Chapter 2, "Getting Started" describes the Command Builder wizard's working environment and how to access the Command Builder tools. In addition, it describes how to create, execute, and publish a command.

•Chapter 3, "Creating an ANA Macro Language Command: An Example" describes creating an ANA Macro Language command from start to finish.

•Chapter 4, "Running Command Scripts" describes running command scripts.

•Appendix A, "ANA Macro Language" describes the ANA Macro Language, its syntax, how to use parameters, pragmas and a detailed example for writing ANA Macro Language scripts.

•Appendix B, "Bean Shell Commands" describes the methods that should be used for Bean Shell in Cisco ANA commands when you want to interact with devices. In addition, it provides Telnet and SNMP environment object examples.

Note Changes to the registry should only be carried out with the support of Cisco Professional Services.
