Auto onboarding of the NCS 1001 device hosting Cisco Optical Site Manager does not complete because the XR device communicates with the third-party docker through the east-west interface. To onboard a NCS 1001 device, manually add it in Cisco Optical Site Manager using the east-west interface. For more details, see Add a device.
