You have to play a bit with “Device Type Identification” (right-click 
menu/Utilities/Device Type Identification)

Copy System Object ID from “Spectrum Modelling Information”, open the Device 
Type Identification then add a new entry and put in the correct device type for 
that OID.

That won’t solve everything but at least, the device will have the correct type 
when modelled by IP.

Subject: RE: [spectrum] Modeling Cisco Nexus devices

 

Hi Cliff. 

 

This is not all due to CA's lack of support.

 

When Nexus was developed, they thought XML (web service type) was the way to go 
to manage these devices. As such SNMP was not a big deliverable when they hit 
market. They are only playing catch up with SNMP instrumentation, of course 
Cisco conveniently developed DCNM tool for nexus, but does go fairly deep into 
the virtualized switching environment and other unique nexus features.

 

To date following are our issues we are pursuing with CA.

 

*       support for entity and fru traps ( there is no env mon mib available on 
nexus) which makes support for entity/fru critical for module/power/fan status 
changes/faults
*       support for L3.. although we have installed SUP cards CA discovery does 
not recognize that these are L2/L3 devices, therefore some of the routing 
models are not being discovered
*       support for Multicast,  there is no instrumentation available for PIM, 
but is coming, there are other multicast mibs available, but since spectrum 
can't discover device as L3, we believe this also a potential issue with 
Multicast Manager.

 

Our Ehealth team confirms that they are able to see limited CPU/MEM stats, and 
confirmed that this too is a Cisco limitation, and need to wait for proper mib 
support.

Has anyone successfully modeled any of the Nexus switches (running NX-OS) in 
Spectrum?

 

It seems as if they support only the most basic of Cisco’s normal MIB set.  
We’re trying to get at the CPU and memory stats.

 

Thanks,

 

Cliff
