Introduction
Managing diverse converged, multiple-technology, multiple-layer, and multiple-vendor IP networks is challenging. Cisco ANA addresses this challenge with its model-based, virtual network abstraction. This abstraction serves as a live information foundation that presents a consistent and complete end-to-end
topological view of network resources and services to higher-level functions. Cisco ANA creates this abstraction, referred to as the Virtual Network Element (VNE) model, by automatically discovering and polling managed network elements (NEs), and by processing network-generated events.
Cisco ANA supports converged core, aggregation, and access networks based on MPLS, Carrier Ethernet, and IP Radio Access Network (RAN)/Mobile Transport over Packet (MToP) technology foundations, and extends to support other emerging services and technologies.
Cisco ANA is multitiered. Initially, it can be deployed as an element manager for Cisco NEs such as the Cisco CRS-1 and Cisco ASR 9000 series devices. It can later be used as a service-aware network manager that is a foundation for a broad, integrated suite of functionalities including provisioning, resource inventory planning, performance management, and service assurance.
The Cisco ANA Integration Software Development Kit (ISDK) Telecommunications Management Forum (TMF)-compliant information model and other Cisco ANA services. The ISDK is backed by developer support and advanced technical services.
Technology Support
Discovering and identifying basic network components is the foundation of Cisco ANA. Cisco ANA obtains end-to-end visibility of the network resources, connections, and dependencies, which enables it to manage and analyze network behavior. Basic components used to build the end-to-end network view include:
•
Interoperable interfaces, including physical and logical ports.
•
Protocol stacks.
•
Forwarding entities, including switching and routing tables.
•
Adjacencies, including physical and service links.
After identifying and modeling these components, Cisco ANA achieves a complete, end-to-end understanding of the network structure across vendors, technologies, and network layers. The Cisco ANA virtual network model is kept up-to-date (in near-real time) through polling and traps.
Cisco ANA Client Applications
Cisco ANA provides several client applications that offer simple, intuitive interfaces to manage the network and services and to perform required system administration activities. The three main Cisco ANA client applications are:
•
Cisco ANA NetworkVision—The main GUI application used to visualize the network through network and service maps, and to view device physical and logical inventories and connectivity.
Cisco ANA NetworkVision is also used to launch other clients and tools, such as Command Builder and Cisco ANA Network Service Activation.
•
Cisco ANA EventVision—Used to browse historical events archived by Cisco ANA.
•
Cisco ANA Manage—The Cisco ANA administration and configuration application used to manage the entire product.
•
Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management—Used to manage the software and device configuration changes that are made to devices in your network. (This GUI client is available only if you install the Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management feature.)
For more information, see Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Configuration and Image Management User and Administrator Guide.
All Cisco ANA client applications support automatic client updates. Whenever a client application is launched and connects to the Cisco ANA server, Cisco ANA automatically checks the client software version, and, if necessary, automatically performs updates.
Network Element Inventory Discovery
Every node managed by Cisco ANA is assigned to an autonomous VNE. The VNE continuously investigates the NE status and configuration in order to reflect it accurately and generate an accurate virtual model of the network.
Cisco ANA provides full control over the information collection process. Different polling intervals are assigned to the various information types, such as status, configuration, and performance counters, which can also be differentiated by device types, groups, and instances. Furthermore, the polling intervals are modifiable in runtime, which allows VNEs to implement adaptive polling, that is, to increase or reduce the polling rates according to the device load or CPU consumption.
Network and Service Monitoring
Effective network management requires accurate, up-to-date network information. Cisco ANA uses Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) and Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) for the initial network discovery and to maintain the real-time, virtual network image.
After discovery, presentation of the network in Cisco ANA includes:
•
Network maps
•
Service overlays
•
Service path traces
•
Addition of business tags
Event and Fault Management
Cisco ANA offers extensive fault analysis and management capabilities that ensure quick and accurate fault detection, isolation, and correlation. After a fault is identified, Cisco ANA uses the autodiscovered virtual network model to perform fault inspection and correlation to determine the root cause of the fault and, if applicable, to perform service impact analysis.
Configuration and Activation
Cisco ANA provides an activation framework that can be used for network element configurations and end-to-end service activations. Cisco ANA enables both standalone activation and integration with northbound design and assigns systems to enable integrated flow-through provisioning.
The configuration and activation framework of Cisco ANA is based on Command Builder and the Workflow Engine. Command Builder commands and Workflow Engine workflow sequences can be executed from the Cisco ANA GUI, as well as from northbound systems using the Cisco ANA API.
Security
Cisco ANA implements a two-dimensional security model by combining a role-based security mechanism that is applied on scopes of NEs and user-defined maps. Cisco ANA supports built-in roles, each with predefined security and access control for performing different system functions.
Cisco ANA Reports
Cisco ANA provides a Report Manager that enables you to generate, view, and export reports of the information managed by Cisco ANA. You can save the generated reports in multiple formats, including PDF, CSV, HTML, and XML. In addition to a variety of standard reports for events and inventory, you can customize one of the existing report types as required for your environment by setting report input values for later use. The Report Manager is available from Cisco ANA NetworkVision, Cisco ANA EventVision, and Cisco ANA Manage. The Report Manager enables you to run standard reports, such as the number of syslogs by device, or to define reports suited to your environment.
Northbound Integration
Cisco ANA supports multiple concurrent northbound integration sessions through any protocol (standard or proprietary) and information model. The gateway server manages and authenticates all client sessions, as well as the required protocol and information model adaptations for the various clients.
Cisco ANA northbound information modeling is based on an information model derived from TMF-513/608. It is called the Information Model Object (IMO), and is designed to accommodate any technology and network type.
Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management
The new Configuration and Image Management GUI enables you to detect and track changes that are made to a device configurations, and provide rapid, reliable software upgrades to devices.
For device configuration changes, copies of configuration files are stored in a configuration archive, from which you can compare configurations, restore configuration files to devices, and for Cisco IOS devices, synchronize running and startup configuration files.
Cisco IOS and Cisco IOS XR software images are stored in the Cisco ANA image repository. You are alerted when running and startup configurations are no longer synchronized. You can add new images by importing them from Cisco.com or a local filesystem. Before an image is distributed, NEIM performs an upgrade analysis to ensure that the network element is compatible with the image. For Cisco IOS XR devices, you can deactivate packages, test changes before committing them, commit changes, and rolling packages back to previous rollback points.
Device configuration and software image files are stored in the Cisco ANA database in the new anauser_xmp schema.
For more information, see Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Configuration and Image Management User and Administrator Guide.

Cisco ANA Software License
All purchased Cisco ANA licenses (the Cisco ANA base kit, UI Clients, RTMs, and so on) must be registered and activated, by installing a license file on the Cisco ANA server.
Two types of licenses are available:
•
Cisco ANA Software Base Kit for a production network.
•
Cisco ANA Lab Bundle for lab or staging networks.
Note
The Cisco ANA 3.7.1 license file must be installed within 120 days of installation or upgrade. If there are no valid license files on the gateway server, Cisco ANA acts as an evaluation version. This means that it has full functionality for 120 days after installation, and then it expires. When the Cisco ANA gateway server is next restarted, Cisco ANA will not start.
Licensing for Upgrades to Cisco ANA 3.7.1
•
Upgrade from Cisco ANA 3.7: If you are upgrading from a registered version of Cisco ANA 3.7, no new license files are required. To check whether you have a valid license file installed on the Cisco ANA gateway server, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Administrator Guide.
•
Upgrade from Cisco ANA 3.6.x: A new license file is required because there is no automatic transfer of licenses from Cisco ANA 3.6.x. Contact your Cisco account representative or send an e-mail to ask-ana-licensing@cisco.com to get a new license file, and install it on the Cisco ANA 3.7.1 gateway server within 120 days of the upgrade.

Fault Management
Cisco ANA 3.7.1 introduces fault management improvements that provide the following:
•
New GUI in Cisco ANA Manage for configuring an Event Notification Service.
•
A new flag in the registry allows you to enable and disable processing of events from the unmanaged NEs. When the flag is enabled, events from all NEs (managed and unmanaged) are persisted in AVM 100 and forwarded to the Event Archive and, if configured, to the Event Notification Service for further filtering.
See the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Administrator Guide for more information.
•
You can register for notification for a particular event by using the new BQL command RegisterEventNotifications. This command can be used for the following event categories:
–
Actionable events
–
EMS internal event (System, Security, Audit, and Provisioning)
The Event type and SeverityEnum can be used as a filter while registering for the notification.
See the Cisco Active Network Abstraction Integration Developer Guide for more information.
•
Support for event notifications generated by all devices (including devices not represented by a VNE). This support includes receiving, persisting, filtering, displaying, and forwarding events. The option for this support is configurable.
•
Support for running the Cisco ANA Event Collector (AEC, which runs on AVM 100) on both gateways and units. This includes new documentation with recommendations and sample scenarios.
•
AEC with proxy forwarding support. If the AEC is running on a unit and the unit server does not have a direct connection to the database, you can configure another unit to be its proxy and persist event information to the Fault Database. For more information, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Administrator Guide.
Foundation-Level Enhancements
Cisco ANA 3.7.1 introduces the following foundation-level enhancement:
•
External User Authentication—The Cisco ANA Manage GUI for configuring an external authentication server now includes a Test Connection button that validates the connectivity between the Cisco ANA gateway server and the LDAP server in real time.
•
Gateway server—New script for changing the IP address of the gateway server.
•

For information about reports and Report Manager, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 User Guide.
You can also retrieve reports using BQL. For more information, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction Integration Developer Guide.
VNE Life Cycle Management (LCM)
Cisco ANA 3.7.1 introduces the following VNE LCM enhancements:
•
Device reachability improvements:
–
A new Communication Details window (in NetworkVision) provides information on the status of the protocols used by a VNE, and also reports whether the device is generating traps and syslogs.
–
New registry customization settings allow users to fine tune when Cisco ANA should consider a protocol unreachable. In addition, users can choose from different VNE management communication policies to report reachability in a more or less strict manner. This allows Cisco ANA to report reachability in a more accurate way, according to a customer configuration.
–
New GUI decorators are used to report VNE communication and investigation states.
•
Improved VNE discovery time identification mechanism— VNEs can instead use a convergence mechanism (rather than the discovery process timeout) to determine whether discovery has ended. Using the convergence mechanism, the VNE evaluates whether commands are still updating the model to help determine if more model changes are expected. The mechanism ensures that:
–
The most complicated commands have more than sufficient time to run.
–
VNEs do not remain in the Discovering state when a relatively inconsequential command has not completed.
For more information, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Administrator Guide.
External Launch Enhancements
Cisco ANA 3.7.1 enables you to add external launch points to links, tickets, and events so that you can launch them from the Cisco ANA NetworkVision navigation pane, map view, links view, or ticket pane, and from Cisco ANA EventVision for any type of event.
For more information, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Customization User Guide.

Features Removed or Changed in Cisco ANA 3.7.1
Features Removed
The following features are not available in Cisco ANA 3.7.1:
•
OSPF Networks object in Cisco ANA NetworkVision
Because the OSPF Networks object is no longer available, existing tickets and alarms that were associated with the OSPF Networks object remain open and are not cleared after upgrading to Cisco ANA 3.7.1. Newly received traps and syslogs generate new tickets and are associated with the OSPF Interface, OSPF Neighbor, or OSPF Process. If insufficient event data prevents Cisco ANA from associating traps or syslogs with one of these objects, the traps or syslogs are associated with the Managed Element object or the OSPF Networks object, in which case the OSPF Networks icon is displayed in logical inventory (CSCtg86206). For details about OSPF-specific traps and syslogs, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Reference Guide Part 3, "Alarms and Events."
For events that occurred before the upgrade to Cisco ANA 3.7.1, the source identifier uses the old format. After upgrading, when the event is cleared, the clearing event's source identifier uses the new format, which prevents Cisco ANA from linking the events.
If you are upgrading from Cisco ANA 3.6.x, see the section "Managing 3.6.x Events" in the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Installation Guide to understand the event migration. Postmigration event management in Cisco ANA 3.7.1 is the same as in Cisco ANA 3.7.
•
In Cisco ANA NetworkVision, the following options are no longer available for working with route targets:
–
Provisioning route targets
–
Enabling IPv6 Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF)

New Network Element, Module, and Software Support
The following topics describe the new support provided in Cisco ANA 3.7.1 for network elements, modules, and software:
New Network Element Support
Table 4 identifies the new network element types supported in Cisco ANA 3.7.1.
New Module Support
Table 5 identifies the new module support available in Cisco ANA 3.7.1.
New Software Version Support
Table 6 identifies the new software versions supported in Cisco ANA 3.7.1.
Network Elements and Features Validated for Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management
The following tables list the devices, software, and features that have been validated with Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management. While all Cisco IOS and Cisco IOS XR devices have the software required to support these functions, only the devices listed below have been validated. Keep this in mind if you use any devices not listed in Table 7.
Table 7 identifies the network elements and software that were validated for Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management in Cisco ANA 3.7.1.
Table 8 identifies the Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management features that were validated on the devices listed in Table 7.
New Alarm, Trap, and Syslog Support
Cisco ANA 3.7.1 provides the following new features:
•
Wrapped syslog support—Syslogs-on-traps are enabled for devices on which syslogs are disabled.
With wrapped syslog support, Cisco ANA can parse the clogMessageGenerated trap (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.41.2.0.1), wherein the device sends the syslog within the trap as varbinds.
•
Multisource event support—Cisco devices can send syslogs and traps from IP address sources other than the device management IP address. With multisource event support, Cisco ANA can handle these events that arrive from the alternate IP addresses.
For example, assume that a Cisco device has a management IP address of 10.10.10.10 and that Cisco ANA manages this device by using the management IP address. When the device sends syslogs and traps using another IP address, such as 10.1.1.1, Cisco ANA captures them, parses them, and displays them in the Cisco ANA GUI.
The following topics describe the new service alarms, trap support, and syslog support provided in Cisco ANA 3.7.1:
•
Service Alarm Severity Change
Service Alarm Severity Change
In Cisco ANA 3.7.1, the severity for the Link Down Due to Admin Down service alarm has changed from Major to Minor.
New Service Alarm Subtypes
Cisco ANA 3.7.1 differentiates between certain alarms that are generated by an administrator action and those that are generated by a change in the operational state by providing new alarm subtypes with differing severities, depending on the cause.
Table 9 identifies the new alarm subtypes and severities for those alarms that are administratively down and those that are operationally down.
In conjunction with the new alarm subtypes and severities, similar changes have been made to the severities of the associated syslogs and traps identified in Table 10.

•
Before Installing Cisco ANA 3.7.1
•
Changes in the Cisco ANA Installation
•
Changes in the Upgrade Process
•
Before Upgrading to Cisco ANA 3.7.1
•
Cisco ANA 3.7 Upgrade Limitations
For installation procedures, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Installation Guide.
Cisco ANA 3.7.1 is installed on top of a Cisco ANA 3.6 installation and includes all patches that were released since the Cisco ANA 3.6 release. Any patches or fix packs that were previously installed on top of Cisco ANA 3.6 are automatically uninstalled by the 3.7.1 installation script.
Before Installing Cisco ANA 3.7.1
Note the following before installing Cisco ANA 3.7.1:
•
One of the Oracle versions shown in Table 28 must be installed with the Oracle JVM and partitioning options:
•
Clients communicate with the gateway; therefore, IP connectivity is required between the clients and the gateway. The Cisco ANA EventVision client also requires IP connectivity to the database. Cisco ANA EventVision is the only client application that communicates directly with the database.
•
For Windows 7 installations only, we recommend that you do not install the Cisco ANA GUI clients in the Program Files folder. Only Windows Administrators can run the GUI clients if they are installed in that folder.
•
In Cisco ANA, the clocks on the gateway and units must be synchronized. If Oracle is running on a separate workstation, that remote database workstation's clock must be synchronized with the gateway and unit clocks.
The time set on the clocks of all units in the setup is the same. The maximum difference allowed between the different clocks is 4 minutes.
Note
Changing the gateway clock while the system is running will significantly impact Cisco ANA performance.
Changes in the Cisco ANA Installation
The Cisco ANA 3.7.1 installation procedure has changed as follows:
•
The default installation location for Cisco ANA 3.7.1 is C:\Cisco Systems\ANA\.
Changes in the Upgrade Process
The Cisco ANA 3.7.1 upgrade process has changed as follows:
•
The upgrade process does not create the ana_admin user and scheme.
•
The upgrade process overrides the customized "Message of the Day" and restores the default message. After upgrading to Cisco ANA 3.7.1, use Cisco ANA Manage to re-enter your customized "Message of the Day" content.
•
The upgrade process overrides the event management settings, such as the number of days before removing events from the database, and restores the default values. After upgrading to Cisco ANA 3.7.1, use Cisco ANA Manage to reset the event management settings to the required values.
For more information, see the Upgrading Cisco ANA chapter in the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Installation Guide.
Before Upgrading to Cisco ANA 3.7.1
Note
For complete information on the changes and requirements for upgrading to Cisco ANA 3.7.1, review the information in the Upgrading Cisco ANA chapter in the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Installation Guide. That chapter identifies the requirements and effects of the upgrade in detail.
•
If you are upgrading from Cisco ANA 3.7, install the Cisco ANA 3.7.0.1 service patch before installing the Cisco ANA 3.7.1 upgrade software.
•
If required, back up and store the following information so you can restore it after the upgrade:
–
Existing "Message of the Day" content
–
Event management settings
If you do not back up and store this information, you can enter the information after the upgrade by using Cisco ANA Manage.
•
For an upgrade installation, if you have disabled any plugins prior to upgrading Cisco ANA by modifying site.xml, remove the modification from site.xml before upgrading to Cisco ANA 3.7.1.
•
Before migrating to Cisco ANA 3.7.1, close all database sessions (such as TOAD, SQL, and so on).
•
Cisco ANA 3.7.1 introduces IMO changes as described in the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Installation Guide. Review these changes before upgrading to Cisco ANA 3.7.1 so that you know how any integration that uses the Cisco ANA northbound interface (NBI) is affected.
•
We also recommend that you review the BQL section in the Cisco Active Network Abstraction Integration Developer Guide to ensure that the integration is not affected by these changes.
•
While the Cisco ANA application is up and running, enter the following commands to verify that the databasePath and databaseUser entries are set in the avm66.xml file:
cat $SHEERHOME/Main/registry/ConfigurationFiles/127.0.0.1/avm66.xml | grep databaseUsercat $SHEERHOME/Main/registry/ConfigurationFiles/127.0.0.1/avm66.xml | grep databasePathIf the first query returns empty output, enter the following commands to set the databaseUser in avm66.xml:
cd ~/Main./runRegTool.sh -gs localhost set 127.0.0.1 avm66/services/workflow/engine/databaseUser ""./runRegTool.sh -gs localhost get 127.0.0.1 workflowavm/services/workflow/engine/databaseUser./runRegTool.sh -gs localhost set 127.0.0.1 avm66/services/workflow/engine/databaseUserresult-from-previous-commandIf the second query returns empty output, enter the following commands to set the databasePath in avm66.xml:
cd ~/Main./runRegTool.sh -gs localhost set 127.0.0.1 avm66/services/workflow/engine/databasePath ""./runRegTool.sh -gs localhost get 127.0.0.1 workflowavm/services/workflow/engine/databasePath./runRegTool.sh -gs localhost set 127.0.0.1 avm66/services/workflow/engine/databasePathresult-from-previous-commandUsing the install.pl Command
When entering the install.pl command, you must enter perl at the beginning of the command line. For example, when installing a Cisco ANA gateway, enter:
perl ./install.pl -user nameThe perl install.pl command is used when installing a Cisco ANA gateway or unit, and when migrating from Cisco ANA 3.6.7 to Cisco ANA 3.7.
For more information, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Installation Guide.
Memory Consumption
If your network contains several routers that maintain 1000 or more BGP routing entries in their routing tables, and if the VNEs for these devices use the product scheme, memory consumption might increase with this release.
If new modeling was added for VNEs used in your environment, we recommend that you check your AVM memory allocations. Contact the Cisco ANA Project Manager or Cisco Account Team to perform the necessary calculations.
Backward Compatibility
Refer to the following links for changes in Cisco ANA 3.7.1 that might affect existing integrations:
•
For changes in API and information model changes, see the Cisco Developer Network at http://developer.cisco.com/web/ana/home.
•
For changes to event types, see the Managing Events section in the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Installation Guide.
Cisco ANA 3.7 Upgrade Limitations
When upgrading to Cisco ANA 3.7 from Cisco ANA 3.6.x, the following limitations and restrictions apply:
•
After migrating to Cisco ANA 3.7, if you force a migrated ticket to clear in Cisco ANA EventVision in the Ticket tab, the ticket severity is not updated in the GUI.
To work around this issue, close and reopen the Ticket tab in Cisco ANA EventVision. For more information, see CSCtd17665.
•
When migrating data to Cisco ANA 3.7 from an earlier version of Cisco ANA, if you specify a database for the event processing scheme that is different than the Cisco ANA database, the migration fails.
To work around this issue:
a.
Migrate the data using the same database for Cisco ANA and the event processing scheme.
b.
After migrating the data, move the event processing scheme to the desired database.
c.
Update the persitency.xml file.
For more information, see CSCtf98838.
Solaris Services and Components
Cisco ANA uses the Solaris services and components. You must not remove them. For more information, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Installation Guide.
Using Cisco CRS-1 VNEs
This section contains the following topics:
•
Installing the Cisco IOS XR Manageability Package
Installing the Cisco IOS XR Manageability Package
For Cisco CRS-1 VNEs, you must install the Cisco IOS XR Manageability Package on top of the Cisco IOS XR version. In addition, verify that the device configuration contains the following command:
xml agent ttyCreating the SNMP Community
When creating the SNMP community, configure a new SNMP community string that has SystemOwner privileges.
To do this, log into the device and create a new community read string with SystemOwner privileges, and then direct the Cisco ANA VNE to use the new community. For example:
snmp-server community 1icpub RO SystemOwnersnmp-server community ate9riv RWSDR Support
Secure Domain Router (SDR) is supported as a separate, independent VNE, with its own IP address and login sequence. When adding an SDR to Cisco ANA, it is treated like any other network element; that is, it is added as a new VNE using Cisco ANA Manage. The SDR IP address is attached to the active RP of the SDR (or to its virtual IP, if it exists).
The following sections describe how to set up Cisco XR 12000 series devices and Cisco CRS-1 devices for use with SDR.
For more information about SDR support and either of these devices, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 Reference Guide.
For Cisco XR 12000 Series Devices
As a prerequisite for a Cisco XR 12000 Series VNE:
Step 1
Install the Cisco IOS XR Manageability Package on top of the Cisco IOS-XR version.
Step 2
Add the command xml agent tty to the device configuration.
Step 3
Define the IP address, SNMP read community and Telnet login sequence. When adding the Telnet login sequence, add the user as an admin user (username@admin).
For Cisco CRS-1 Devices
As a prerequisite for the CRS-1 VNE:
Step 1
Install the Cisco IOS XR Manageability Package on top of the Cisco IOS XR version (Cisco IOS XR 3.4 and 3.4.1).
Step 2
Add the command xml agent tty to the device configuration.
Step 3
When creating the SNMP community string, specify the SystemOwner (for SDRs, specify the SDROwner; LROwner on Cisco IOS XR 3.5.x and lower).
Step 4
Define the IP address, SNMP read community, and Telnet login sequence. When adding the Telnet login sequence, add the user as an admin user (username@admin, e.g. cisco@admin).

Online Help
The online help has been updated for Cisco ANA 3.7.1 and has been tested using the following browsers:
•
Netscape 9.0
•
Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0
•
Firefox 3.5.7
•
Mozilla 1.7.13
Limitations and Restrictions
This section includes the following limitations and restrictions:
•
Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management
•
Cisco ANA Workflow Editor Sessions
•
HSRP
•
OSPF
•
VLAN Tagged Interface Limitation
For deployment information and recommendations, such as supported configurations and system sizing, contact your Cisco account representative.
Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management
The following items pertain to Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management:
•
Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management runs a maximum of four concurrent jobs with four tasks each. As a result, backing up the configurations of 6000 devices in Cisco ANA can take up to 24 hours to complete. For more information, see CSCth85718.
•
If you attempt to log into Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management by using a web browser immediately after the Cisco ANA gateway is up, you will receive an HTTP Error 404.
To avoid this error, we recommend that you wait approximately 15 minutes after the Cisco ANA gateway is up before trying to log into Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management via a browser. For more information, see CSCth85747.
Cisco ANA NetworkVision
For information on the maximum number of objects, links, tickets, and maps that Cisco ANA NetworkVision can display, contact your Cisco account representative.
Cisco ANA Fault Management
A Tickets Capacity Overflow system alarm is generated when the maximum number of open tickets is exceeded. The alarm severity is defined as Critical. For a definition of an open ticket, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.7.1 User Guide. To avoid exceeding the maximum number of open tickets, we recommend that you close the tickets on time.
Note
Changes to the registry should only be carried out with the support of Cisco. For details, contact your Cisco account representative.
Cisco ANA Workflow Editor Sessions
You can open only a single Cisco ANA workflow session at a time.
ATM Topology Discovery
ATM topology discovery is performed in two phases:
1.
Discovery matches active VCs and VPs on the ATM ports.
2.
Discovery matches the traffic signatures of the VCs and VPs that were identified during the first phase.
ATM topology discovery is supported on topologies where the ports at either end of the connection are both configured with VCs or VPs. Discovery is not supported on ATM topologies where VPs are configured at one end and VCs are configured at the other end.
BGP Neighbors
•
When both IP and VPN capabilities are enabled between BGP neighbors, only the VPN capability state is displayed in the MpBGP neighbors table.
•
To support the BGP fault mechanism, each device must have a unique BGP router ID.
EVC Discovery
In Cisco ANA 3.7.1, if you initiate full EVC discovery by issuing the runFullDiscovery command on AVM 11, not all EVCs are found even though the command appears to complete successfully. To work around this situation, issue the runFullDiscovery command again. For more information, see CSCti03000.
HSRP
For correlation to work, the path through which HSRP signaling passes must be modeled (must exist) in the system.
OSPF
OSPF networks are presented in Cisco ANA logical inventory. The current implementation was developed to present nonoverlapping interfaces so that, when a device has multiple interfaces with the same IP address and these interfaces participate in different OSPF networks, only one interface is displayed.
For example, a device might have multiple interfaces that use the same IP address if it is configured for multiple VRFs.
This situation can occur when multiple OSPF processes are running on the device.
OSPF processes (OSPFService) do not have IMO representation in Cisco ANA.
VLAN Tagged Interface Limitation
When a Layer 3 subinterface is configured on an Ethernet port with a range of VLAN tags as the first or second tag, the following occurs at the device level:
•
In the ingress direction, the VLAN tags in the packet are matched with the tags defined on the subinterface. If a match exists, the tags are extracted from the packet, and the packet is sent for upper-layer handling. The functionality implemented in the device is the same as that implemented by Cisco ANA VNEs.
•
In the egress direction, because there is a range of VLAN tags on the subinterface, the device does not know which tag from the range to apply to the packet. Some Cisco IOS devices, such as the Cisco ASR 1000 series and the Cisco 7200 series, apply the first tag in the range. However, this behavior is not consistent for all Cisco IOS or Cisco IOS XR devices.
As a result of the inconsistent behavior in the egress direction, Cisco ANA VNEs do not implement VLAN tagged interface functionality for this direction. If a flow in the egress direction reaches a subinterface with a range of VLAN tags defined, the flow stops.
Open Caveats in Cisco ANA 3.x
The following sections identify and describe caveats that are open against Cisco ANA:
•

Significant Caveats Before Using Cisco ANA 3.7.1
We recommend that you read the caveats in Table 30 before using Cisco ANA 3.7.1 so that you understand the possible impact on your environment.
Outstanding Cisco ANA 3.7.1 Caveats that Were Resolved for Earlier Releases of Cisco ANA
When a customer identifies a defect in Cisco ANA, the availability of the software that fixes that defect depends on when the defect was identified during the development process.
At the beginning of a development cycle, defects that are identified by customers against released versions of the product are scheduled for resolution in the current release. In addition, all fixes that were delivered as point patches or service patches to customers are included in the current release.
During the middle of the development cycle, customer-found defects are handled in one of the following ways, depending on the amount of risk associated with fixing the defect:
•
Low-risk fixes are included in the current release.
•
High-risk fixes are included in a service patch for the current release and are incorporated into the next release.
At the end the development cycle, customer-found defects identified against released versions of the product are either included in a point patch or service patch, or are scheduled for inclusion in the next release, depending on their severity.
The caveats identified in Table 31 were identified late in the Cisco ANA 3.7.1 development cycle and have been fixed for releases of Cisco ANA earlier than 3.7.1. The fixes for these caveats have been provided to customers as needed and are scheduled for inclusion in the next release.
Open Caveats in Cisco ANA 3.x
Table 32 lists additional caveats, in descending order, that are open against Cisco ANA 3.x.

Identifier Title Impact Workaround ReleaseUnit machines become unreachable following initial setup/installation
Unit machines enter an Unreachable state following the initial installation.
This situation occurs when the following error is present in 99.out on the unit machine:
Unrecognized VM option `-ReduceInitialCardMarks'1.
In ~/Main/jvm_params.xml, change the following line:
<machine name="Default">-verbose:gc -XX:-ReduceInitialCardMarks </machine>to:
<machine name="Default">-verbose:gc< /machine>Note
This line occurs twice; change it in both places.
2.
Enter the following command:
anactl restartIf there are multiple units, changing the file on the gateway makes the change on all units.
3.7.1
Cisco ANA 3.7.1 mvm.pl script continues even with failures
The mvm.pl script continues even though it reports failures.
This situation can occur when you restart Cisco ANA on a unit. Even though Cisco ANA fails to retrieve files from the gateway for the unit, Cisco ANA starts on the unit and the file retrieval failures are noted in the log.
This situation might be caused by either of the following:
•
Cisco ANA cannot retrieve classes.jar from the gateway to the unit /tmp directory.
•
/tmp on the unit is not accessible to the ANA user.
1.
Check the /tmp access to confirm that it is readable. If it is not, change access to readable and restart Cisco ANA on the unit.
2.
Check SSH access from the gateway to the unit and from the unit to the gateway. If necessary, correct any issues and restart Cisco ANA on the unit.
If Steps 1 and 2 do not resolve the issue, continue with the following steps:
3.
Enter the following command on the gateway:
ls ~/Main/ | grep "jar"4.
Copy all the JAR files in the Step 1 output to the corresponding directories on the unit.
5.
If a third_party.jar file is among the copied files, enter the following command:
cd ~; jar xf Main/third_party.jar6.
Restart Cisco ANA on the unit.

•
Reloading the router.
•
Replacing a card with a different card of almost the same type (such as with a different number of ports).
•
Replacing the card with a different card type.
•
Removing the card and placing it in a different slot in the same router.
1.
Stop the VNE.
2.
Delete the inventory and topology persistency files for the VNE.
3.
Restart the VNE.
3.7
Port 162 appears to be occupied when IP address contains "162"
When installing Cisco ANA using the install.pl script, the installation fails due to occupied port 162, even though the netstat command confirms that the port is not occupied.
Run the install.pl script with the -override_ports option.
3.7.1
System cannot handle large number of tickets with thousands of events attached
Cisco ANA does not perform well if the following conditions exist:
•
A large number of tickets exists with the event count of some tickets reaching 135K.
•
The tickets are up to four months old and not being closed (flagging).
As a result of these conditions:
•
The nonarchived partition size is extremely large.
•
Other features (such as Ticket Agent and Integrity Test) do not run normally, with delays in their execution.
Contact Cisco Technical Support for the availability of a patch.
3.7
Installing Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management on existing installation fails
The Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management application does not initialize properly if the installation is corrupted by attempting to install it more than once.
The commands to start the application show error messages in the startup log files indicating that the startup of the application was not successful, and the application is not usable.
The specific message is:
ERROR: DDL execution of the script /export/home/ana37/XMP_Platform /scripts/xmp_ quartz_ddl.sql failed, Please check the log file: /export/home/ana37/XMP_Platfom/ startup.log, exitingThe installation can become corrupted if you accept the option to install Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management more than once in repeated executions of the ana-conf script. It is also possible to run the setup_xmp_nccm.cmd script more than once, to run it after the application has been installed by ana-conf.
Avoid the problem by installing Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management only once. If you are unsure whether the application has been installed, do either of the following:
•
Enter the anactl status command. If the result shows that the XMP Runtime DM is in [UP] state, the application has been installed.
•
Check for the presence of the following directories beneath the ANA home directory (usually /export/home/ana37):
–
XMP_Platform
–
NCCMComponents
If these directories are present and contain files, Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management has been installed.
If the application has become corrupted, you must manually uninstall it before installing it again. Use the following procedure to uninstall Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management:
1.
Change to the Cisco ANA home directory.
2.
Issue the following commands:
./NCCMComponents/scripts/nc cmShutdown.cshchmod -R 777 XMP_Platformchmod -R 777 NCCMComponentsrm -rf XMP_Platformrm -rf NCCMComponents3.7.1
BGP State Change trap is not processed if source peer is from the VPN IPv6 table

Cisco ANA might issue an alarm that the EVC service has stopped.
This situation can occur after initial discovery or in other scenarios.
Contact Cisco Technical Support.
3.7.1
Event register filtering by source for syslogs does not work
Register event notification might not show syslogs filtered by the OIDs that you are familiar with.
For example, the following does not support notifications for filtered syslogs, traps, or service events by OID because it is not the internal representation that Cisco ANA uses:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><command name="RegisterEventNotification s"><param name="imobjectArr"><value><newalarm.INetworkEvent><Source type="Oid">{[ManagedElement(Key =169.254.207.60_3)]}</Source></newalarm.INetworkEvent></value></param><param name="rs"><value><key name=""><entry name="depth">20</entry><entry name="register">true</entry></key></value></param></command>The Cisco ANA internal representation is not available in Cisco ANA EventVision, but must be used to successfully filter by OID. For example, the suffix for a syslog OID is "[Syslog]".

Cisco ANA 3.7.1 Upgrade: After upgrade, deleting old Cisco ANA user results in exception
If you delete a user in Cisco ANA Manage who was migrated to Cisco ANA 3.7.1 from an earlier version and who was not allowed to run workflows, the user is deleted but an exception is generated.
None. Because the user was deleted as requested, you can close the exception window.
3.7.1
Links filter does not remove service links from Cisco ANA NetworkVision
Tickets that are due to service links that do not appear in the map are displayed in the ticket list.
If you use a filter to filter out service links in a Cisco ANA NetworkVision map, the service links are removed from the map and links view. However, the service links are not removed from the model. As a result, tickets on those links are displayed in the ticket list.
Do either of the following:
•
In the ticket table, filter out the tickets related to the service links.

•
Stop and start the VNE on one side of the link two or more times.
•
Move the AVM two or more times.
The event states that the reason for disconnecting the event is null.
You can ignore this event.
None
3.7.1
Removed devices are treated as managed devices
VNEs that have been removed from Cisco ANA are represented as if they still existed:
•
VNE in Up state—If you add a VNE to Cisco ANA in an Up state, remove the VNE, and then send a network event from the VNE IP address, the network event is processed as if the VNE still existed.
•
VNE in Down state—If you add a VNE to Cisco ANA in Down state and then send a network event from the VNE IP address, the network event is processed as if the VNE were an unmanaged device.
•
For VNEs in Up state, restart AVM 100.
•
For VNEs in Down state, start the VNE and then stop it.

3.6.6
TFS: TCA-generated tickets do not show description on traps sent
When a TCA ticket is created using thresholds, the ticket is sent northbound via a trap forwarding service, but the notification does not include the ticket description. Instead, it contains the alarm-type number specified in site.xml during Soft Property creation.
For example, when a TCA ticket is created using Soft Properties and thresholds, the trap sent should include the ticket description in cenAlarmStatusDefinition, such as
cenAlarmStatusDefinition = 179, layer 2 tunnel down.Instead, the TCA-generated ticket contains
cenAlarmStatusDefinition = 9015,....None
3.7
Dual-port modeling does not work as expected
When a pluggable port is inserted into a device with a module that supports dual ports, Cisco ANA shows both the ports instead of the inserted port.
For example, a Cisco 7600 device can contain a WS-SUP720-3BXL module that supports dual ports. The two ports are Gigabit Ethernet ports that will work as an SFP or RJ-45 port depending on whether or not an SFP is inserted.
When an SFP is inserted into one of these Gigabit Ethernet ports, Cisco ANA should display the SFP port and not the Gigabit Ethernet port. However, Cisco ANA displays both ports.
In addition, instead of modeling the SFP with its properties (PID, Serial Number, Pluggable Type, and Media Type), Cisco ANA displays both ports as normal ports.
None
3.7.1
Same Layer 2 Tunnel Down service alarm is raised twice simultaneously
A Layer 2 Tunnel Down alarm might not be cleared if the Layer 2 Tunnel Down alarm is generated twice:
•
Once on a pseudowire link.
•
Once on a pseudowire endpoint.
This situation occurs if the pseudowire is down before Cisco ANA discovers it and both endpoint devices are managed by Cisco ANA.
Clear the ticket manually.
3.7.1
Redundancy state is displayed incorrectly for all network elements
If redundancy is configured on a device, and the device is managed in Cisco ANA, physical inventory displays the wrong redundant state for the card or module on which redundancy is configured.
None

AVM does not start if port is in use
An AVM does not start if the port is already in use.
None
3.7.1
Need to set registration-delay for Card In traps and syslogs
Card status update is delayed after a card is inserted.
Cisco ANA has a registration delay value of 30 seconds for all Cisco IOS devices for:
•
OIR-6-INSCARD syslogs
•
TRANSCEIVER-DFC-6-INSERTED syslogs
•
CEFC FRU inserted traps
As a result, the clearing ticket (Card In) service alarm is generated 30 seconds after the card is inserted.
Contact Cisco Advanced Services for assistance in modifying the length of the delay.
3.7
EFP Down alarm is sent when EFP was down originally
EFP Down alarms might be sent for EFPs that are originally in an operational down state under the following circumstances:
1.
Create a VNE for a device with EFPs configured on some of the ports.
2.
Confirm the EFPs are operationally down and administratively up.
3.
Remove the module from the device. A Card Out alarm is generated with its correlated events.
4.
Reinsert the module. The Card Out alarm is cleared, and EFP Down alarms are generated on the EFPs.
None
3.7.1
Devices with the Most Events (by type) report runs forever in scale setup

Moving a VNE to an unreachable AVM causes the VNE to become unreachable
If you create a new AVM, start the AVM, and, while the AVM is unreachable, move a VNE from a different AVM to the unreachable AVM, the VNE is not reachable after the AVM comes up.
None
3.7.1
Wrong behavior on REP change with NO_NEIGHBOR configuration
When the Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP) configuration is changed on a device (specifically for ports with Operational Link Status of NO_NEIGHBOR), the REP table in Cisco ANA NetworkVision logical inventory is not updated.
None
3.7.1
Cisco ASR 9000 VNE is operational but MAC address tables not displayed in logical inventory
Some MAC address tables appear in Cisco ANA NetworkVision logical inventory after the VNE enters an operational state.
This situation occurs on very large configurations on Cisco ASR 9000 devices.
Wait until all tables are displayed in the GUI.
3.7.1
DWDM syslog of L2-G709-4-ALARM does not consider the alarm type
The DWDM L2-G709-4-ALARM and L2-G709-4-ALARM- CLEARED syslogs do not consider the type of the G709 alarm.
As a result, when any clearing syslog similar to L2-G709-4-ALARM-CLEARED is received and parsed by Cisco ANA, all L2-G709-4* syslogs are cleared.
For example, if syslog G709 alarm LOS is invoked, and then syslog G709 alarm BEI clear, the G709 alarm BEI clear syslog clears the G709 alarm LOS syslog.
None
3.7.1
Multiple AVMs with the same AVM ID when more than 1000 AVM IDs
Cisco ANA allows you to create AVMs with identifiers greater than 1000, but when these AVMs are created and managed, multiple AVMs are seen with the same identifier after a period of time.
Do not create AVMs with identifiers greater than 1000.
3.7.1
No system event when restarting Cisco ANA with no license in limit of 120 days
System events related to not having a license after the limit of 120 days are not persisted if you restart Cisco ANA.
Any events that are generated from the gateway during Cisco ANA startup are not persisted if AVM 25 is not yet running.
None
3.7.1
Detailed Event Count (by device) report does not work in scale setup
If you run the Detailed Event Count (by device) report for thousands of devices, the report stays in Running state.
Run the report for fewer devices, such as hundreds instead of thousands.
3.7.1
Creating a unit with unit protection disabled does not save to registry
If you create a unit with unit protection disabled, restart the Cisco ANA gateway, and then view the unit properties, unit protection is shown as enabled.
None
3.7.1
Command Builder command is not published to all VNEs
If you create a command for VNEs using Command Builder or Soft Properties and publish the command to all VNEs by cutting and pasting to the highest hierarchy level or location, the script is not published to all VNEs.
Restart the VNE or AVM.
3.7.1
Mass of uncleared tickets causes correlation failure
If there is an extremely high number of uncleared tickets, events are not correlated to their root cause and open tickets.
When the number of open tickets reaches the threshold of ActiveTicketTest, Cisco ANA starts to archive cleared tickets. If there are not enough cleared tickets to archive, it archives uncleared tickets.
When Cisco ANA archives uncleared tickets, and when new tickets are opened and the root alarm is cleared but the correlated events have not yet been received, the following actions occur:
•
The new tickets are archived because their aggregated severity is cleared.
•
The correlated events do not correlate to the root alarm (because it is already archived) and they result instead in new tickets.
Check the number of open tickets on a regular basis. If there are a large number of tickets, archive some of the older tickets.
3.7.1
Command Builder commands not shown in VNE right-click menu
Commands that are created in Command Builder are not visible in the right-click menu for VNEs.
This situation occurs if the Microsoft Windows time of the Cisco ANA client precedes the gateway time and another application is open.
1.
Close and reopen the Cisco ANA client for the command to appear in the right-click menu.
2.
If the command still does not appear, delete the client cache in the client installation directory \ANA\cache\gateway-ip where gateway-ip is the IP address of the Cisco ANA gateway.
3.7.1
Empty Maintenance column if creating VNE with vne_creation_scirpt.pl
If you create a VNE on a Cisco ANA unit using vne_creation_script.pl from Main/scripts, the Maintenance column is empty.
If you then change the VNE to maintenance mode, the value entered in the Maintenance column for that VNE is true.
When a VNE starts, the maintenance state should be false by default.
None
3.7.1
Upgrade to Cisco ANA 3.7.1, roll back, and upgrade again fails by @LongLink
The Cisco ANA 3.7.1 upgrade script creates a compressed archive of the ANAHOME directory. During the tar operation, a @LongLink file might be created as tar cannot handle very long filenames.
If you try to roll back an upgrade that contains @LongLink and upgrade again, the following error message is displayed:
tar: ./@LongLink: Cannot open: Permission deniedThis situation occurs when reexecuting an upgrade to Cisco ANA 3.7.1 on a Solaris gateway.
Before upgrading Cisco ANA to version 3.7.1, determine if @LongLink appears under $ANAHOME. If it does, remove it.
3.7.1
Unrequired extra EVCs are discovered as a result of shared real and fake EFPs
In situations in which Cisco ANA manages only EoMPLS and not access to the EoMPLS, VLAN discovery generates a VLAN domain for a single EFP that is the Attachment Circuit into the EoMPLS. These VLANs are not associated with the EoMPLS and are part of a separate EVC.
None
3.7.1
Generate two separate tickets regarding link down and up
Cisco ANA generates two separate link down events when a port is disconnected and connected a few times.
This situation occurs because, when a port is connected and disconnected, the port can be in any of a number of link event negotiation states. As a result, events might be sent from different sides of the link.
None
3.7.2
Wrong severity on device after port down scenario
After performing a port down scenario, returning the port to up status, and clearing and removing the associated ticket, the device displays the wrong severity.
This situation does not recur consistently.
None
3.7
Events are persisted to ana37_ep only in groups of 10 (configurable)
Events in the network are persisted in groups of 10. For example, if 14 events are received, only 10 are persisted. In the 20th event, another 10 are persisted.
The persistency bulk size is configurable, and 10 is the default value.
None
3.7.1
EFPs deleted and readded to the same map have reconciliation icons
The reconciliation icon is displayed in Cisco ANA NetworkVision maps on EFPs that are deleted and rediscovered.
This situation occurs if you:
1.
Create a map and add an EVC to it.
2.
Delete the VNEs that are related to the EVC.
3.
Wait for the EVC to be deleted.
4.
Readd the VNEs, and wait for the EVC to be discovered.
5.
Readd the EVC to the map.
The EFPs representing switch ports have reconciliation icons.
Close and reopen the map.
3.7.1
Cannot open huge reports in different formats
Extremely large reports cannot be viewed in some formats. For example, if you run a Detailed Syslog report or an Ethernet Service Summary report that contains more than 100,000 items, the report does not display.
Do any of the following:
•
View the report in CSV format.
•
For medium reports, save the report in XLS or XML format and then view it.
•
Run the report with a finer filter.

Table Soft Property: Missing notification upon update
When a single value in a Table Soft Property is modified, currently open inventory windows do not update their views.
Reopen the Soft Property tab or inventory window to view the new value.
3.7.1
Proxy for AVM 25 does not work in high availability (HA) scenarios
Proxy configuration for AVM 25 does not work in the following HA scenario:
•
AVM 25 on Unit A is configured to use proxy AVM 25 on Unit B.
•
Unit B is part of a HA protection group, where Unit C is its standby.
•
Unit B fails, and Unit C takes over.
In this situation, AVM 25 on Unit A is still configured to use Unit B, which is now down.
In a setup in which the Cisco ANA gateway supports HA, use the gateway machine AVM 25 as proxy for units with no database connectivity.
3.7
Static link exists in system but is not shown in the map
A static link exists in the system, and is seen in Cisco ANA Manage, but the link is not seen in Cisco ANA NetworkVision in the map view.
This situation occurs when the static link is created while the dynamic link is connected.
Do either of the following:
•
Restart one of the VNEs that holds the static link.
•
Recreate the static link while there is no dynamic link.
3.7.1
Unable to override a dynamic LAG link with a static link
If a LAG link is dynamically discovered and you want to override it with a different static link, you cannot do it through Cisco ANA NetworkVision.
Use BQL to create the static link.
You can use the following example, replacing the A Side OID and Z Side OID with the required OIDs:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><command name="Update"><param name="oid"><value>{[StaticTopologyM anagement]}</value></param><param name="imobjectArr"><value><IAddNotification><NewIMO type="management.IStaticTop ologyManagement"><ID type="Oid">{[StaticTopology Management]}</ID><Links type="IMObjects_Array"><management.IStatic TopologyLinkManagement><ID type="Oid">{[StaticTopology Link(ASideOid={[ManagedElem ent(Key=10.56.101.96)][Logi calRoot][Context(ContextNam e=Default context)][DataLinkAggregati onContainer(Type=1)][DataLi nkAggregation(Index=22)]})( ZSideOid={[ManagedElement(K ey=c2-core1)][LogicalRoot][ Context(ContextName=Default context)][DataLinkAggregati onContainer(Type=1)][DataLi nkAggregation(Index=10)]})] }</ID><BiDirectional type="Boolean">true</BiDire ctional></management.IStati cTopologyLinkManagement></Links></NewIMO><PropertyName type="String">Links</Proper tyName></IAddNotification></value></param></command>3.7.1
Routers with crypto commands are always shown as "out of synch"
In Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management 1.0, a router that includes a crypto certificate within its configuration always appears as "out of synch." This occurs even after executing a job to explicitly perform the synchronization, or by going directly to the device to copy the running configuration to the startup configuration.
This situation is seen on routers with the following element present in the running configuration:
crypto pki certificate chainA router with this command is referred to as "running a crypto image."
Ignore any such routers when they appear on the list of devices that are out of synch as shown on the dashboard or in the Configurations > Synchronize screen.
Adding the crypto pki certificate command to the exclude list does not solve the problem because this is a multiple-line command that is not processed correctly by the exclude command logic. The exclude commands handling logic currently handle single-line commands only.
3.7.1
Business Element Not Found error when trying to add an EVC to a map
When trying to add a EVC or VPLS to a map, a Business Element Not Found error might be displayed, and the element is not added to the map.
This situation is more likely to occur when deleting a large number of VNEs.
Wait two to ten minutes for the system to finish updating, and then add the element.
3.7.1
LAG not updated on changes
If you move ports to LAG (of type Ethernet Channel) and no ports are available, the ports move, but the state stays Manual instead of changing to LACP.
If you remove all ports from LAG, the ports are moved and the state changes to Down, but the protocol type stays LACP and does not change to Manual.
Restart the VNE.
3.7.1
Unreachable unit cannot be removed from Cisco ANA Manage
If a Cisco ANA unit remains in an unreachable state and the unit contains AVMs, it cannot be deleted from Cisco ANA Manage.
Do the following:
1.
Connect to the Cisco ANA gateway as ana-user (where ana-user is the UNIX user account for the Cisco ANA application, created when Cisco ANA is installed).
2.
Go to the ~/Main directory and enter the following commands:
./runRegTool.sh -gs 127.0.0.1 set 127.0.0.1
avm11/services/plugin/BosManagePlugin/ignoreElementsState/enable true

Cisco ANA 3.7.1 Upgrade: Cisco ANA clients logging into the gateway might become `stuck'
If you upgrade or downgrade the same Cisco ANA gateway a few times, or open multiple Cisco ANA clients from the same gateway, the Cisco ANA clients might not open successfully.
This situation is more likely to occur if you upgrade and downgrade the same gateway multiple times or if you open multiple Cisco ANA applications on the same gateway at the same time.
Delete the client cache in the client installation directory \ANA\cache\gateway-ip where gateway-ip is the IP address of the Cisco ANA gateway.
3.7.1
Creating static link before dynamic link on the same port results in two links
Incorrect service discovery occurs when duplicate links are associated with the same port.
If the corresponding devices are already open in a map, Cisco ANA NetworkVision displays two links (one static and one dynamic) connected to the same port.
This situation occurs if a static link that overrides a dynamic link is added exactly when the dynamic topology starts to discover links.
None
3.7.1
Cisco GSR device port connector is modeled as Missing Pluggable Port
On Cisco GSR devices running Cisco IOS XR software, the ports under modules SPA-5X1GE-V2 and SPA-1X10GE-L-V2 are modeled as Missing Pluggable Ports. As a result, links on the interfaces are not discovered.

3.7.1
Install and Activate do not work for Cisco ASR 9000 devices via Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management
For Cisco ASR 9000 series devices, the Install and Activate queries via Cisco ANA Configuration and Image Management successfully activate the same version of the software image, but do not work if the image is upgraded or downgraded.
None
3.7.1
Link between Cisco ME3400 with REP Edge No Neighbor to Cisco ASR 9000 not discovered
If a ring of Cisco ME-3400E access nodes is closed by a pair of Cisco ASR 9000 aggregation nodes, the links between the Cisco ME-3400E devices and the Cisco ASR 9000 devices are not discovered.
Because Cisco ASR 9000 devices do not support REP on EVCs, the edge ports on the Cisco ME-3400 devices are configured as REP Edge No Neighbor ports. These uplinks to the Cisco ASR 9000 devices are not discovered by Cisco ANA or displayed in Cisco ANA NetworkVision maps.
None
3.7.1
Cisco ANA PathTracer fails with IP address destination
Running a path trace to a destination IP address fails to find the required path.
If ARP cache information is missing in the device (due to aging), and thus not modeled by the VNE, the path trace might not have enough information to perform a trace to a destination IP address.
To overcome this lack of information, Cisco ANA PathTracer initiates a flood on the VNE model to find the correct path. In some cases, the flood identifies multiple ways to reach the destination IP address. Cisco ANA PathTracer chooses a path that might or might not be the optimal path from among the options and, as a result, might display a nonoptimal or even incorrect path.
Launch the path trace again as sometimes it is a timing issue.
3.7.1
Cleared ticket not appearing as blue although correlated with Info alarm
Tickets that contain alarm severities of both Cleared and Information have a severity of Cleared instead of Information.
None
3.7.1
Separate ticket is created for SPA when containing SIP is removed or shut down
For Cisco GSR devices running Cisco IOS XR 3.8.2, removing or shutting down the SIP-600 card that contains an SPA results in a ticket for the SPA alarm instead of correlating it to the Card Down/Out ticket.
None
3.7.1
Instrumentor persistency misses duplicate commands
In some cases, a VNE might perform polling during startup even if instrumentor persistency is enabled and the data is stored in the persistency.
When two or more commands poll the same SNMP OID (including the same columns) or the same Telnet CLI, the persistency data is available to the first command that requests it.

None
3.7.1
Alarm ticket regarding OSPF flapping does not correlate to Link Flapping
The alarm for OSPF flapping does not correlate to the Link Flapping ticket.
This situation occurs under the following conditions:
1. Two VNEs are added to a Cisco ANA NetworkVision map with a link between them and OSPF configured on at least one of them.
2. The cable is unplugged and plugged in a few times (approximately five times) to create a Link Down Flapping ticket.
The OSPF flapping alarm is not correlated to the Link Down Flapping ticket.
None
3.7.1
Alarm regarding Primary HSRP Not Active does not correlate to Link Down
If HSRP is configured between two devices and the link between the devices goes down, the Primary HSRP Not Active alarm should correlate to the Link Down alarm, but it does not.
None
3.7.1
GUI ignores icons in Scalar Notification on OID property
Bridge properties in Cisco ANA NetworkVision maps are not updated when a VLAN is deleted and added with a different name.
When a VLAN that has been added to a map is removed from a device, the reconciliation icon is displayed on the switching entity and all EFPs under it.
If the same VLAN is added using a different name:
•
The reconciliation icons are removed.
•
The Bridge Properties window (right-click the VLAN, then choose Properties) shows the old bridge properties instead of the new one.
Close and reopen the map.

TicketListAspect notifications are missing on correlated alarms
TicketListAspect is part of the IMO model that contains a list of tickets that the requested element is part of. After the first Get request, this model is updated through notifications from the server.
The notification on new or removed tickets is missing when the element is not the root cause of the ticket.
Do either of the following:
•
Initiate new Get command.
•
For Cisco ANA NetworkVision maps, close and reopen the map.
3.7.1
Generates Port Down alarm instead of Link Down alarm in HA scenario
Cisco ANA generates alarms for a link that is down for only one of the interfaces. Also, the link between two involved VNEs stays green on a Cisco ANA NetworkVision map even though one side of the link is down per the link properties.
This situation can occur in a high availability environment under the following conditions:
1. A few VNEs from the same AVM are added to a map.
2. AVM protection is enabled on the AVM.
3. The AVM process is stopped.
4. An interface is shut down.
5. Cisco ANA brings the AVM and all VNEs back up.

Restart AVM 11.
3.6.6
Event archive contains redundant raw events in high availability (HA) scenario with multiple AVM 100s
In certain HA scenarios, after a switchover occurs, the Event Archive contains redundant raw events. This occurs on systems that meet ALL of the following:
1.
High availability is enabled and the system has multiple running AVM 100s.
2.
The system has a running Event Notification Service.
3.
The system is configured to persist (save) events from unmanaged devices.
4.
A unit switchover occurs.
Events are duplicated because the same device is classified as managed by one unit and unmanaged by another unit; and because ANA is configured to save events from unmanaged devices.
Example:
•
Device1 is forwarding raw events to Unit1 (active) and Unit3 (standby).
•
Device2 is forwarding raw events to Unit2 (active) and Unit3 (standby).
•
Unit1 goes down and Unit3 becomes active.
•
AVM 100 starts on Unit3, and Unit3 starts persisting all events to the event archive.
The result is that when Unit3 comes up, it classifies Device2 as unmanaged; but Unit2 continues to classify Device2 as managed (no change). Therefore, when Device2 forwards any events, the events will be duplicated in the Event Archive because the same device is considered both managed and unmanaged, and events from unmanaged devices are being saved.
This is a temporary situation that resolves itself as soon as the down unit (Unit 1 in the example) comes back up.

Cisco ANA 3.6.x to Cisco ANA 3.7 Migration: VNE display error after migration
After migrating from Cisco ANA 3.6.x to Cisco ANA 3.7, Cisco ANA might not display all VNE attributes.
The VNE software version changed in Cisco ANA 3.7. As a result, some of the AVM 11 plugins fail to start and VNE data might not be displayed in the Cisco ANA Manage GUI.
Complete the following steps after successfully migrating to Cisco ANA 3.7:
1.
Make sure all the devices are reachable (via Telnet). If some devices are unreachable, stop Cisco ANA and manually remove the respective VNEs by carefully editing the avmXXX.xml file.
2.
Restart Cisco ANA and the VNEs by using the Cisco ANA GUI. Restarting the VNEs enables the VNEs to update the registry accurately. At this point, AVM 11 still fails.
3.
Restart the Cisco ANA gateway. AVM 11 starts successfully because it can now read the correct registry values of the VNEs.

3.7
Multiple ticket selection during arrival of new tickets changes focus
If you select multiple tickets in Cisco ANA NetworkVision while new tickets are added, the selection is not saved. This situation occurs when a number of new tickets are added to the ticket pane while you are selecting multiple tickets.
Do one of the following:
•
Traverse the sort (using an ascending time sort) and select multiple lines.
•
Filter for all tickets older than a specific time, such as the last 5 minutes, and use the multiple selection on a stale list.
3.7
Duplicate AVMs are created after moving AVMs between units
In Cisco ANA Manage, if you perform parallel requests of AVMs, the following occur:
•
Duplicate AVMs are displayed in Cisco ANA Manage
•
Entries are included in the 11.out log file that start with:
"ElementManagementElementHandle r.handleDuplicateKey - CONFIGURATION ERROR - Duplicate DA Key!"This situation can occur if you move an AVM from unit X to unit Y, and then move the same AVM to unit Z.
Complete the following steps:
1.
Go to the 11.out log.
2.
For each error described in the Impact section, discover the problematic AVM number. (It is included in the error message.)
3.
In ~/Main/registry/ConfigurationFiles, enter the following command if you discover that there are more than one avm<problematic-avm- id>.xml files:
grep avm<problematic-avm-id> */*.xml4.
Check whether the key also exists in avm99.xml in that unit.
If not, remove the file in that unit and leave it only in the unit that contains that key in the avm99.xml.
If the key exists in more than one avm99.xml, remove the whole key from the avm99.xml in the duplicate units and the avm<problematic-avm-id>.xml files. Leave it only in the required unit.
5.

Cisco ANA 3.6.x-3.7 migration: Links are removed after tickets are cleared
After migrating from Cisco ANA 3.6.x to Cisco ANA 3.7, existing links are removed from Cisco ANA NetworkVision if Link Down tickets related to the links are cleared.
For example, assume you are running Cisco ANA 3.6.6 and Link Down tickets exist for some of the links.
If you clear the Link Down tickets after migrating to Cisco ANA 3.7, the links are removed from Cisco ANA NetworkVision.
The links are displayed again when the VNEs are rediscovered.

Removing a ticket less than seven minutes after its creation can cause problems
If you remove a ticket from the Cisco ANA GUI within seven minutes of its creation, events that are caused by the ticket might not find it as the root cause. As a result, they cannot correlate to it.
Instead of correlating to the original ticket, the newer events open tickets with their own descriptions.
This situation occurs because ticket creation can take up to seven minutes after event creation.
None

Cisco ANA GUI application javaw.exe process shuts down occasionally
When working intensively on Cisco ANA NetworkVision or Cisco ANA EventVision, you might experience a Java crash causing the GUI application to close. This issue does not affect the Cisco ANA server and is related only to the Java GUI applications running on a Windows machine with some models of Nvidia graphics cards.
This situation can occur while working with multiple open windows of the Cisco ANA application. The crash happens sporadically with no specific scenario.
Do either of the following:
•
Restart the Cisco ANA application.
•
Consider updating your graphics card driver (the latest drivers for a particular card are usually available on the website of your computer, video card, or video chip manufacturer, such as http://www.nvidia.com)

Wrong physical links are discovered with Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) when service instances are configured with encapsulation untagged
Cisco ANA discovers the wrong links with the following configuration:
•
CDP is enabled on all interfaces.
•
The link UPE11-TX port 1/1/2 < > AGG-7604-TX port 3/0/3 exists.
•
AGG-7604-TX port 3/0/3 is configured as follows:
service instance 1 ethernetencapsulation untaggedxconnect 172.255.3.169 999999 encapsulation mpls•
The cross-connect is to AGG-7606-TX.
•
The link AGG-7606-TX port 1/0/2 < > UPE9-TX: port 1/1/2 exists.
•
AGG-7606-TX port 1/0/2 configuration is:
