Voice Services Provisioning Tool

Provisioning with the VSPT is the process of preparing a Cisco Media PGW 2200 to communicate with an SS7 network, with Cisco media gateways, and with the other components of an OPT Solution. The VSPT application provides an easy to use GUI to provision the Cisco PGW 2200.

VSPT can be deployed as an integrated component of the CMNM or as a standalone application. In the Cisco VoIP: Infrastructure Manager Solution configuration, it runs on the CMNM server. It allows you to import an existing configuration, modify the configuration, and export it to the same or different devices; or wizards guide you through high-level configuration steps to create the initial network provisioning information for a newly installed node, creating iterative entries from a single operation. It can also facilitate provisioning of individual call parameters, simplifying the provisioning of a large live network.

During a provisioning session, VSPT automatically generates the Man Machine Language (MML) or command line interface (CLI) scripts used to configure network elements, assembles these commands into a batch file, and deploys the file to the appropriate network device. VSPT is used to augment the Cisco PTC provisioning application, providing bulk provisioning support and an alternative for provisioning the PGW 2000.

Recommended Hardware Configuration for VSPT

VSPT runs on the CMNM server in this Cisco VoIP: Infrastructure Manager Solution.

CiscoView

CiscoView is a device monitoring application that is built into the CiscoWorks 2000 network management package. Installing CiscoWorks 2000 is the method of adding CiscoView to your network management applications. This Solution installs CiscoView (through the installation of CiscoWorks 2000) on a separate Solaris 8 host. A prerequisite to the installation of CiscoWorks2K on Solaris 8 is the installation of Solaris 8 patch 108827-19 or later. This Solution assumes you will install the entire recommended patch cluster for Solaris 8 as outlined in the “Installing the Solaris 8 Patch Cluster” section.

CiscoView is launched by the CMNM application to provide a device level view of Cisco network devices. CiscoView provides support for a wide range of devices and has the capability of adding support for future devices through download of device specific description files. CiscoView aids in zeroing in on trouble spots in the network or in providing device specific hardware and interface usage data.

Recommended Hardware Configuration for CiscoView

CiscoView is installed on the CMNM host machine and is already considered in the hardware recommendations for CMNM.
