Product impact

Feature

Description

Ease of Use

DB inconsistencies Alerting Mechanism

This feature fixes inconsistent Smart PHY DB tables data using some of the existing Smart PHY and Operations Hub capabilities.

In previous Cisco Smart PHY releases, scripts were used to detect inconsistent Smart PHY DB tables data but fixing the inconsistent data was not possible.

Ease of Use

Support for Smart PHY to CCAP cBR-8 reconciliation

In previous Cisco Smart PHY release, reconciliation is only supported from the cBR-8 to Smart PHY direction. This feature provides reconciliation capabilities from Smart PHY to cBR-8.

With this feature you can push the config deviations to the cBR-8 router.

Ease of Use

RPD latitude and longitude configured on aux-only core

Latitude & longitude is configured on managed principal core. Smart PHY does not configure RPD latitude & longitude on aux-only/video CBR.

Ease of Use

Display the Service Definition version in the reconciliation report

The Reconciliation reports display a deviation after Service Definition config is modified but not applied (use Save instead of Save and Assign) as reconciliation is comparing cBR-8 config with the latest Service Definition. version and not the SD version currently applied to RPDs. With this feature the reconciliation report now displays RPD associated with its version as well as the latest version of Service Definition.

With this feature reconciliation report now displays RPD associated with which latest version of SD version.
