Chapter 5 Connecting the Management Interfaces and Performing Initial System Configuration

Initial System Configuration

The SNMP agent that resides inside the SCE 2000 will respond only to SET requests that use this community string.

Enter SNMP SET community name:

Note that there is no default for this parameter.

Step 7 Assign an access list to restrict the SNMP management stations that may use this SET community.

Type a number (1 through 99) or type “0” to permit access to all IP addresses, and press Enter.

Enter Access list number allowing access with this community string, use ‘0’ to allow all:

Step 8 The maximum number of SET communities is 20.

•To add more entries, type y and press Enter

Would you like to add another SNMP SET community? [no]:y

Enter up to 20 SNMP SET communities as described in step 6 and step 7.

•When all entries have been added, press Enter

Would you like to add another SNMP SET community? [no]:

Step 9 Enter the SNMP trap managers menu.

Would you like to configure SNMP trap managers? [no]: y

Type y and press Enter.

The SNMP trap managers dialog begins.

If you choose not to configure SNMP trap managers, the dialog skips to the authentication failure trap status. (See step 14.)

Step 10 Type the trap manager IP address and press Enter.

Enter SNMP trap manager IP address:

Note that there is no default for this parameter.

Step 11 Type the trap manager community string and press Enter.

Note that there is no default for this parameter.

Enter SNMP trap manager community string:

Step 12 Type the number of the trap manager SNMP version (1 or 2c) and press Enter

Note that there is no default for this parameter.

Enter trap manager SNMP version:

Step 13 The maximum number of trap managers is 20.

•To add more entries, type y and press Enter

Would you like to add another SNMP trap manager? [no]:y

Enter up to 20 trap managers as described in step 10 through step 12.

•When all entries have been added, press Enter

Would you like to add another SNMP trap manager? [no]:

Step 14 Configure the Authentication Failure trap status.

SCE 2000 4xGBE specifications

The Cisco Systems SCE 2000 4xGBE is a robust solution designed to optimize IP networks and enhance service delivery. As a member of Cisco's Service Control Engine (SCE) product line, this device is particularly suited for service providers looking to manage network traffic, improve service quality, and provide a suite of advanced management features.

One of the standout features of the SCE 2000 is its ability to process and analyze network traffic in real-time. This capability allows operators to gain insights into user behavior, application usage, and overall network performance. By utilizing deep packet inspection technology, the SCE 2000 can identify different types of traffic, enabling network managers to enforce policies and prioritize critical applications effectively.

In terms of interface capabilities, the SCE 2000 offers four 1 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports. This versatility allows for easy integration into existing network infrastructure while ensuring ample bandwidth for data transfer. The device supports both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols, making it future-proof and suitable for evolving network demands.

One of the significant technologies employed by the SCE 2000 is Service Level Agreement (SLA) management. This feature ensures that service providers can meet their commitments to customers by monitoring performance metrics such as latency, jitter, and packet loss. The ability to generate reports based on SLA compliance allows for better customer engagement and transparency.

Additionally, the SCE 2000 facilitates dynamic resource allocation, enabling service providers to adapt network resources based on current demand. This elasticity is crucial in managing peak loads and ensuring a seamless user experience. Furthermore, the device’s support for Quality of Service (QoS) policies ensures that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth and resources dedicated to maintaining operational efficiency.

The SCE 2000 also emphasizes security with features such as intrusion detection and prevention capabilities, helping protect the integrity of the network. This combination of performance monitoring, traffic management, and security makes the SCE 2000 an invaluable tool for service providers.

In conclusion, the Cisco Systems SCE 2000 4xGBE is a powerful network management solution that excels in providing real-time traffic management, SLA compliance, and security features. Its capabilities make it an essential component for service providers aiming to optimize their networks while delivering high-quality services to their customers.
