F.1 Creating Model Definitions for Network Devices

Rulesets used for the function that automatically configures network devices are registered by the network device model. Therefore, it is necessary to create model definitions for determining the models of network devices.

The created model definitions are enabled by registering the following XML definition file:

[Windows Manager]
Installation_folder\SVROR\Manager\etc\customize_data\network_device_model.xml

[Linux Manager]
/etc/opt/FJSVrcvmr/customize_data/network_device_model.xml

Newly-added models can be supported by editing the model definitions.

The network device model definitions provided with sample scripts for auto-configuration of network devices are automatically acquired, therefore it is not necessary to enter them in the model definition file.

Information

  • When editing a model definition, check the sysObjectID of the network device using the snmpwalk command.

Example

snmpwalk -v 1 -c [SNMP_community_name] [IP_address] sysObjectID

If the information is available from the manual or vendor of the destination device, obtain it from there.

  • Use the specified OID string as the SysObjectId element in the Model element to specify the model name of the network device.

    • The model definition file of network devices is searched from the start, and the first sysObjectID that matches will be used as the model name of the name attribute of the Model element.

    • When there is no matching OID string in the model definition file, the model name is not specified.

  • If product name or model name is specified in network configuration information used at network device registration, specified product name or model name is regarded as a model.
