IBM 5.5 ユーザーズマニュアル

Cisco WAN Management System (CWM) is used to manage Cisco WAN devices such as 
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) devices and frame relays. It manages devices, 
topological connections among devices, and PVC (User Connections) as well. 

CWM uses Informix as its database, and uses database access through a major northbound 
interface. When integrating Netcool/Precision TN with Cisco WAN Manager, data from 
the Informix database is used in all the Netcool/Precision TN functions (such as NE 
discovery, asset polling, and network connection polling.)

To configure a discovery of CWM NEs:

1.

Start Network Pilot.

2.

Select menu Actions -> Discover -> Manage Discovery and click the Create New... 
button.

3.

Type the identifier and display names, then click the Next button.

4.

Click on the Scope tab and add the IP address of CWM database; port information 
will be added in the steps below.

5.

Click on the Protocols tab, select CiscoCWM from the drop-down menu, and then click 
the Configure button.

6.

Type in the port used to access the the database and then click the Next button.

7.

Add the Informix database access information and discovery parameters. See Table 5.

8.

Click the Finish button.

Server Name

The name of Informix Server (not the name of host on which 
Informix is installed.)

Database Name

The name of Informix database that CWM uses.

User Name

The user name required to access the Informix database.

Password

The password required to access the Informix database.

Encryption

If encrypted access is required by the Informix database, check this 
option.

Aggregate BIS

This a discovery parameter. There are two kinds of nodes in CWM, 
feeder node and router node. 

Feeder nodes are associated with router node. If you want feeder 
node to be created in the same NE as router node, check this option. 
Otherwise, feeder node and router node will be created as seperate 
NEs.
