Cisco DNCS System Release 2.8.1 3.8.1 4.3.1 User Guide

Use the following fields when you manage VASP entries in the DNCS.

VASP Type

The type of VASP entry you need to add. Select General for a VOD
server or if you do not see the specific VASP type you need.

ID

A unique number that you will use to identify this VASP entry. 

You can use up to 10 numeric characters. Use a numbering scheme that
allows you to easily identify the type of service associated with each
VASP entry.

Example: You might give a VASP entry associated with a VOD service an
ID of 9001. Then, you would assign IDs of 9002, 9003, and so forth to
each additional VASP entry you add that is associated with a VOD
service.

Name

The name of this VASP entry. You can use up to 80 alphanumeric
characters.

Use a naming scheme that allows you to easily identify the type of server
associated with each VASP entry, the hub where the server resides, and
the QAM modulator that the server feeds.

Example: A name of VODhub1Q43 would represent a VOD server on
Hub 1 that uses the QAM modulator whose IP address ends in 43.

your network map. 

Be careful to properly place the dots (.) between numbers.

not

 press the Tab key to move from octet to octet; pressing

the Tab key moves the cursor to the next field on the window.
