First management LAN CiscoWorks LMS or Cisco? Help

In my business, we look adds a network management solution:

Some time ago, we installed CiscoWorks LMS 3.2, but we decided to install on the other more modern solution, what is the solution which recommend me?

Requeriments:

1 000 devices from cisco management.

Regularly perform massive configurations.

Constant monitoring of the network infrastructure.

Backups of configuration.

We have two solutions:

-Update the current CiscoWorks to LMS 4.x version

-buy the "First Cisco LAN Management" Solution

What solution that recommend me?

Thank you for your attention.

Kind regards.

Hi Jeffersson,

The current product packaging is a bit confusing. Cisco is rebranding all of their management under the aegis of the first Cisco solutions. All prime products have a common appearance and take advantage of some approaches architectural.  From LMS 3.2 on 4.x will put you in the first territory of Cisco.

In the 'first' products are (among others) "Cisco first Infrastructure" (also known as PI - 1.2 is the current version) and "Cisco first LMS" (4.2.3 is current). Preferred Infrastructure (1.0) began in the successor to management wireless Cisco (NCS) product and had been adding features on the way to bring it up to parity with LMS functionality to wired infrastructure. He isn't quite there right now (current comparison here) that existing customers of LMS are usually advised to stick with the latest version of the LMS for now.

Still with me? Good. If the extra twist is that 4.2 LMS is "included" with licenses of FT 1.2 - see the link guide below. So, if you want LMS 4.x, you order indeed 1.2 FT with licenses "Cycle of life" according to the number of devices you manage. (There also is 'respect' and 'insurance' adding these new features of the respective licenses. Compliance is available from LMS 4.2 in the CAAM.  Insurance is almost a FT 1.2 functionality only.)

So my recommendation to you would be to upgrade to version 1.2 of PI and to install and to use the LMS 4.2 (4.2.3 and put patched up-to-date with all the packaging of the products). If you have a VMware configuration, deployment option flexible device (file eggs) is the easier implementation,.

You may find it useful to explain this point of view of Cisco the following two links:

Functional reference LMS

Control of IP and Licensing Guide

Don't worry not-all this will not be on the test.

    I don't think there is much you can do about it outside the use of workaround to reload the page until this problem is corrected.

    There is this bug on this problem:

    I don't know if other extensions download suffer from this issue, as well, so you can try a little more try the website of the add-on and if possible use a different format like WebM, if they are available.

    Also note that not all videos are downloaded and registered correctly. Some may have a size of 0 bytes and fail to download, so, best is to check in downloads of the toolbar Manager in the drop-down list to make sure that the file size is correct (i.e. neither 0 bytes, but a more likely size).

    YouTube streaming makes changes to the code and the way its web pages work, so extensions can fail at any time.

  • CiscoWorks LMS 4.1 monitor temperature

    Hello everyone!

    I am creating a poller to monitor the trap of the temperature of my cisco catalyst 2960 Ciscoworks LMS 4.1.

    I created a snmp trap on my device:

    Switch(conf-t) # snmp-server <@IP_server_LMS>SNMPv2c host -I use SNMPv2c

    Switch(conf-t) # Server enable snmp traps envmon temperature

    I created a MIB model Envmon with these variables:

    -ciscoEnvMonTemperatureThreshold

    -ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusValue
    -ciscoEnvMonTemperatureState
    -ciscoEnvMonTemperatureLastShutdown

    I created a poller associated with my model, I add my device and when I click on 'Next', I have this error message:

    ###

    No instance are in the devices. This could be because the device is inaccessible, the device does not have the case for selected models or the timeout value is low.

    ###

    Could someone explain to me why I can't monitor MIB?

    Thanks for your consideration and Merry Christmas to all!

    It seems that most of the 2960 have a temperature sensor implemented in hardware and therefore, it shows no values.

    If a device does not show anything on CLI, it is almost impossible that it will display something via SNMP.

  • Management Center of firepower of Cisco on the stand-alone server

    You can install a management center of firepower of Cisco on a stand-alone server and not a virtual machine?  Here is a guide for the virtual machine:

    http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/TD/docs/security/firepower/60/Quick_Start/m...

    but I couldn't find one for a stand-alone server. Or what I can use this procedure for a stand-alone server.

    Looks like the only option of will not not with a virtual machine is to get the device itself.

    Thank you

    To install on a server bare metal, you could first put ESXi (free version) on it and then run FMC as the virtual machine only on that. I've had clients do this and it works fine.

    You can recode this treatment so that it uses only:

    e.nextElement ())

    Once a loop iteration.

    Directly at the start saying something like:

    String fileName = e.nextElement ());

    and use fileName everywhere in your loop.

    Also be aware that printStackTrace() will do nothing in your situation, it only works if you catch Throwable.  So make sure you something output all your catches exception and also have a catch (Throwable t) to catch the things you miss, as follows:

    {} catch (Throwable t)

    t.printStackTrace ();

    System.out.println ("Eception exception:" + t.toString ());

    }

    I think your code is thrown an exception and you don't see it.

  • CiscoWorks LMS 3.2 exporting bulk Configuration

    Hello

    Does anyone know an easy way to bulk export configurations off Ciscoworks LMS 3.2?  The only thing I found is the cli command export config u cwcli.exe - p-unit %, but it exports in XML format which is not very readable.  Prefer a text file format.  Someone at - it suggestions?

    Thank you

    Brian

    Hi Brian,.

    CLI, it is the only option, but what you can do to get the files in TEXT format is, you can connect to the server and

    go to this site: NMSROOT\CSCOpx\files\rme\dcma\shadow

    and

The virtual machine will be independent PLM, I read the installation guide, downloaded the EGG file to deploy on the vCenter, but I couldn't find where is the file ISO of downloadable Installation of PLM, maybe I'm not looking for the correct download page site.

    Any help on this is appreciated.

  • Cisco Collaboration first, Manager - fault reports

    Hi all

    Managed to install CEP 1.2 - change the layout is much better than previous versions.

    I added our MSE supervisor blade and I get the error below.

    Fault Board supervisor Power.

    However, when I go to the direct supervisor blade I see this.

    Don't you think CEP straightens this place incorrectly as the MSE is not followed by the plateau of power?

    If it's not it looks like I'll have to get a box connected with Cisco.

    See you soon

    Hi Dean

    What exact model of the MSE is and what version of the software you running on this subject?

  • Problems with the closure, by opening the Task Manager and Norton Internet Security. Help, please!

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7 with Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit). Until Monday, there is no problem whatsoever with my computer at all. I have not installed or uninstalled, whatever it be, changed settings, done anything differently with my computer. Suddenly it now "hangs" on the screen of closing down. I'll try to reboot or stop using the menu start, and it will stay on this screen indefinitely. Now, I have to manually turn off the computer. I spent on the Support page and studied the Performance issues, and all I get is I have Visual settings that interfere with closing... except my Visual settings have not changed in any way. In addition, I can not properly update my computer or do a system restore because the computer will shut down.

    In addition, the Task Manager will appear no more. I'll press ctrl alt del and nothing appears, just the green icon in the corner of the screen. If I try to right click, no response.

    I tried to do a full system scan in Norton Internet Security but she "leaves" scanning. It will scan correctly when I'm in safe mode, but it comes with no virus, trojan or other problem.

    So in essence, I tried everything I can think of to fix my computer nothing works. It was working perfectly before this week. I have no idea where to go. Any thoughts?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello
     
     
    Method 1.
    First check to see if there are external devices attached to the computer, if so remove and check.
     
    Method 2.
    Step A.

    Start your computer in safe mode and check if it starts.
     
    Step B.
    If it starts on the desktop in safe mode and then set your computer to the clean boot and check if it starts successfully. If it starts successfully can be a third-party application or service is causing the problem. We can use the approach 50 / 50 to narrow down the root cause of the problem.

    See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.
    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
    Note: When the diagnosis is complete, don't forget to reset your computer to normal startup. Follow step 7 in the above article.
     
     
    Method 3.
    I recommend to run the restore of the system in safe mode and check if it works very well.
    Reference:
    System Restore: frequently asked questions
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions
    Note: If you use system restore when the computer is in safe mode, you can not undo the restore operation. However, you can run System Restore again and choose a different restore point if any.
     
     
    I hope this helps.
