Chapter 2 Managing MPLS VPN Maps

Disconnecting a CE Device

Note Device alarm tickets do not appear in the ticket pane of the Cisco ANA NetworkVision workspace until the device is added to the VPN service view map.

Step 5 Click Close to close the Device List dialog box.

Step 6 Right-click the site or LCP in the tree or map pane and choose Topology > Connect CE Device.

Step 7 Right-click the device in the tree or map pane and choose Topology > Connect to Site/LCP (where Site or LCP displays the details of the site or LCP to be connected).

The site or LCP is connected to the CE device, and the CE device is displayed in the tree and map panes. A dashed, dark-gray line indicates the association.

Note The Topology > Connect to Site/LCP menu option is not available until after you choose the Topology > Connect CE Device menu option.

Disconnecting a CE Device

You can disconnect a CE device from its sites or LCPs. To disconnect a CE device, right-click the required CE device or link in the map pane and choose Topology > Disconnect CE Device.

The association with the CE device is no longer displayed in the map pane.

Showing or Hiding a CE Device

You can show the CE device for a site or LCP in the Cisco ANA NetworkVision tree and map panes. You can also display the device associations on the service view map after the CE is connected. In addition, you can manually add connected devices (some or all of them) to view them along with the links to sites or LCPs.

To show a connected device:

To show a site or LCP, right-click one of the following and choose Show CE Devices:

Select a site in the map pane displaying the site business element with an actively associated CE device icon (for more information about icons see Table 1-3 on page 1-7).

Select an LCP in the map pane displaying the LCP business element with an actively assigned tunnel edge for the CE device icon.

The connected devices are shown in the tree pane and map pane including the associations.

To hide a connected device:

Right-click the site or LCP in the Cisco ANA NetworkVision tree or map pane connected to the CE device and choose Hide Connected Devices.
