Chapter1 Using Cisco Unified Service Monitor
Getting Started with Service Monitor
Setting Up Service Monitor
Step 1 From the Service Monitor home page, select Setup. The Setup page appears.
Step 2 Update data described in the following table.
GUI Element Description/Action
Auto Registration radio
buttons
Select one of the following:
•Enable—As a Cisco 1040 joins the network, it automatically
registers with a Service Monitor using information provided in
the default configuration file. See Understanding Automatic
Registration and Configuration Files, page 1-8 and Editing the
Default Configuration (Automatic Registration), page 1-12.
•Disable—As a Cisco 1040 joins the network, it registers with a
Service Monitor only when you have created a configuration file
specifically for that Cisco 1040. See Adding a Cisco 1040
(Manual Registration), page 1-9.
Default value is Disable.
Note If the number of Cisco 1040s registered to Service Monitor
equals the number allowed by the license, Service Monitor
does not allow additional Cisco 1040s to register. See
Licensing Overview, page B-1.
Call Metrics Archiving radio
buttons
Select one of the following:
•Enable—After analysis, Service Monitor saves data from
Cisco 1040s to disk files.
•Disable—After analysis, Service Monitor discards data.
Default value is Disable.
Note Call metrics are archived to the directory specified when you
installed Service Monitor.
Image File Directory field Directory on the Service Monitor server where binary image files and
configuration files for the Cisco1040 are stored. Grayed out because
you cannot edit it.
Note This directory was specified during the installation of Service
Monitor.
MOS Threshold field Enter the value below which you want Service Monitor to send an
SNMP trap. Default value is 3.5. Minimum value is 1.0; maximum
value is 5.0.
Starting Cisco 1040 Sensor ID
list and field
Accept the default initial letter in the list and enter a 3-digit number
in the field. A Cisco 1040 Sensor ID consists of a letter and a 3-digit
number, for example: A100.
Service Monitor assigns this ID to the first Cisco 1040 to register with
it and increments from this ID to assign Cisco 1040 Sensor IDs
subsequently.
TFTP Server and Port fields Enter an IP address—or a DNS name—and a port number.
