Discovering Your Network

Column or Button

Description

 

 

Status Reason

Reason for the current status of the signaling gateway-mated pair.

 

For a full list of possible reasons, see the stateReasons.html file. If you installed

 

the MWTM in:

 

The default directory, /opt, then the file is located at

 

/opt/CSCOsgm/apache/share/htdocs/eventHelp directory.

 

A different directory, then the help directory and file reside in that directory.

 

If the cell is too small to show all of the status reason, place the cursor over the

 

cell to see the full text in a tooltip.

 

The status reasons are listed in order of decreasing severity. If two or more

 

reasons apply, the reason of greatest severity appears.

 

If the status reason is Unsupported Configuration, correct the configuration and

 

enter the mwtm cleandiscover command to delete all current network data and

 

begin a discovery of the network. If the status reason remains Unsupported

 

Configuration, enter the mwtm clean command to restore the MWTM server to

 

a state that would exist after a new installation of the MWTM, excluding the log

 

files, which the MWTM retains. To also remove the log files, enter the mwtm

 

cleanall command. For more information on the use of these commands, see the

 

Command Reference, page B-1.

 

 

Back

Displays the Seed Settings tab in the Discovery dialog box.

 

 

Delete

Deletes the selected node or nodes from the Discovery database. The MWTM

 

deletes the nodes without asking for confirmation.

 

 

Poll Node

Begins a poll of all nodes selected within the Discovered Nodes table in the

 

Discovery tab.

 

You cannot poll a node with a Primary SNMP Address of N/A. If you select:

 

A node with a Primary SNMP Address of N/A, then the Poll button is

 

dimmed and cannot be selected.

 

More than one node, and even one of them has a Primary SNMP Address of

 

N/A, then the Poll button is dimmed and cannot be selected.

 

 

Verifying Discovery

After you discover the network (see Discovery Overview, page 4-4), examine the Discovered Nodes table to verify that the MWTM discovered all of the nodes in the network. If you suspect that the MWTM did not discover all of the nodes, verify that:

No nodes are excluded from your current view.

The MWTM server can ping the nodes.

The nodes are running images that are compatible with the MWTM server.

SNMP is enabled on the nodes.

The MWTM is configured with the correct SNMP community name. See Launching the Discovery Dialog, page 4-6for details.
