Serviceability Support

Serviceability allows you to monitor and discover the status of the installed components of your Cisco
CRS system, its subsystems, and its services from any NMS. You can use the information that you obtain
through serviceability to troubleshoot system problems. (For additional troubleshooting information,
refer to Part 2 of this guide.)
Serviceability support includes:
• SNMP Support—Provides integration with CiscoWorks or another SNMP-based network
management system (NMS). SNMP agents provide monitoring of network devices through MIBs
(Management Information Bases). For more information, seeCiscoWorks Support, page 1-2 and
Simple Network Management Protocol Support, page 2-1.
• SNMP Traps—Provides notification messages of high-severity Cisco CRS Engine errors. For more
information, see Simple Network Management Protocol Support, page 2-1
