Chapter 2 Managing MPLS VPN Maps

Removing a VPN from a Map

VPNs that you manually created that are not yet loaded in the map.

Step 3 Select the VPN that you want to add to the map.

Tip Press Shift or Ctrl to choose multiple adjoining or non adjoining VPNs.

Step 4 Click Add.

The VPN is loaded in the service view map displayed in the Cisco ANA NetworkVision workspace.

Step 5 Click Close.

Removing a VPN from a Map

You can remove one or more VPNs from the current active map. This change does not affect other maps. Removing a VPN from a map does not remove it from the Cisco ANA database. The VPN will appear in the Add Business Element to <Root> dialog box, so it can be added back to the map at any time.

When removing VPNs from maps, keep the following in mind:

Removing a VPN will affect other users if they are working with the same service view map.

This option does not change the business configuration or database.

You cannot remove virtual routers, sites, LCAs, or LCPs from the map without removing the VPN.

To remove a VPN, in the Cisco ANA NetworkVision tree or map pane, right-click the VPN and choose Remove from Map.

The VPN is removed from the service view map along with all VPN elements such as connected CE devices. Remote VPNs (extranets) are not removed.

Connecting a CE Device

The connect CE functionality enables you to create a symbolic link to the overall connection between the CE device and the site (IP interface) or LCPs. The CE device belongs to the currently displayed map only. To connect a CE device:

Step 1 Complete one of the following:

To add a CE device to a site, choose the VPN in the Cisco ANA NetworkVision tree or map pane.

To add a CE device to an LCP, choose the LCA.

Step 2 From the File menu, choose Add Device.

Step 3 From the Device List dialog box, choose the device that you want to add.

Step 4 Click Add Device.

The device is displayed in the tree pane and the selected map or subnetwork in the Cisco ANA NetworkVision workspace.
