Initial System Upload

Step 4 Run the following commands in succession to source the Server environment and start the CPC Server:

cd /opt/SY/Activator/Server/mng/utility

. syccpovdef SYnpt -sS

Initial System Upload

In order to provision services, the CPC database must have detailed knowledge of the managed subnetworks. Using a procedure called upload, objects are created within the CPC database that represent objects of the managed network.

Note The term upload does not refer to the creation of inter-network links because they are outside the scope of any single Equipment Module. For more information on adding inter-networking links, see the section titled “Adding Inter-Network Links (Topology) Information” in this chapter.

CPC supports the following types of upload:

•fabric (nodes, DSL physical ports, WAN physical ports, WAN subtending ports, ATM logical ports)

•Service (ATM cross connections)

•fabric and Service (all)

For the Cisco 6100/6130 NI-1 Equipment Module you can upload many nodes at once (network upload) or an individual node at a time. CPC supports the following upload scenarios:

•Given a network object, upload just the fabric elements for the nodes in that network.

•Given a network object, upload just the Service elements for the nodes in that network.

•Given a network object, upload all the fabric and Service elements for the nodes in that network.

•Given a node object, upload just the fabric elements for that node.

•Given a node object, upload just the Service elements for that node.

•Given a node object, upload all fabric and Service elements for that node.

Note The upload function takes precedence over any Transactions that are running at the time of upload. If the upload function makes a change back to the fabric that affects a running Transaction (such as deleting a logical port that the Threader has decided to use) then this Transaction fails and must be restarted.

Network and node objects must be created in order to perform an Upload.

NI-1 specifications

Cisco Systems NI-1, a network infrastructure platform, is designed to address the evolving demands of modern digital networks. As enterprises increasingly rely on cloud services and IoT devices, Cisco has engineered the NI-1 to be adaptive, scalable, and secure, thereby enhancing overall network efficiency.

One of the standout features of the Cisco NI-1 is its robust support for Software Defined Networking (SDN). This technology allows for centralized control of the network, enabling administrators to manage policies and configurations more effectively. The NI-1 facilitates rapid deployment of new applications and services while streamlining network operations. Its SDN capabilities empower organizations to transform their networks into agile and responsive infrastructures.

Another significant aspect of the NI-1 is its integration with Cisco’s Intent-Based Networking (IBN) solution. This technology uses machine learning and artificial intelligence to automate network management tasks such as configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting. As a result, network teams can allocate resources quickly and address issues proactively, significantly reducing downtime and enhancing performance.

Security is also a major emphasis for the NI-1. The platform incorporates advanced security features, including end-to-end encryption, secure segmentation, and threat detection, ensuring that sensitive data flowing through the network remains protected. Cisco's security protocols seamlessly integrate with the NI-1, helping organizations to safeguard their digital assets against emerging threats.

In terms of scalability, the NI-1 is built to grow alongside an enterprise’s needs. With its modular architecture, businesses can easily expand their network capabilities by adding components as required. This flexibility is vital in today’s environment, where organizations may rapidly increase their network capacity or incorporate new technologies.

Moreover, the NI-1 supports a wide range of connectivity options, including Ethernet, wireless, and fiber, ensuring seamless integration with existing infrastructure. Its modular design allows for easy upgrades, keeping the network current with technological advancements.

In conclusion, Cisco Systems NI-1 stands as a comprehensive solution to modern networking challenges. With its emphasis on SDN, IBN, advanced security measures, and flexibility, it positions businesses to thrive in an increasingly connected world. As companies continue to evolve in their digital transformation efforts, the NI-1 provides the necessary tools to enhance their operational efficiency and security.
