Have you tried changing one of the devices through the RME GUI and see if entering the info there works! If it does you can export the RME info and use that as a template for future uploads.

You need to go to the RME-->Admin-->Inventory--> change Device attributes and pick your devices then attributes to chnge (you want Telnet and enable passwords) Fill in all relevant (depending on you device configs). clicking finish on each page. I have never found CW2K automatically recheck...

You might Have the monitoring port in the wrong vlan ! Both the Source and Destination ports need to be in the same vlan ! so if you want to monitor port 1/1 in Vlan3 then the packet analyser/destination port needs also to be in vlan3. Also on the 3550 the default for the span/monitor sess is...

I got this message when installing from Hard disk, It turned out that the file copy from the CD had not created the subfolders (due to winzip, as the server was remote all files were copied compressed). Check you have a sub folder called dependency, again with subfolders. and it is readable.

Are all the devices in CW in RME/CM by IP address? if so you need a name server. and a naming standard ! This can be provided a number of ways DNS or host file. host file is easy to do but does not scale well in large environments. If you have a DNS on the network get the ciscodevices in there...

It will work fine (as a switch) if the rest of the config is OK. Clustering in cisco appears to be for management purposes only. If you configure you second device with an ip address you will be able to manage it individually. The other thing is to check your IOS versions, as a rule the...

netconfig dose have some templates for SNMP that help to minimise configuration mistakes. But I would also suggest a test on a device you can easily power cycle in case it goes wrong. Also give netconfig a chance (it can take 15 mins before it appears to run a job)

You dont say if you are using RME or Campus manager. RME has no Discovery process and relys on other sources for device lists. ANI discovery in Campus Manager being one of them. If RME is asked to manage a device it alrady knows about via a different name or ip address (with routers this is very...

You need ciscoworks User tracker - creates a ip-mac-switch port database. This even has a unix and NT loginscript to pass userid info to ciscoworks which can then reconfigure the port to the users individual requirements. Or you do it the hardway - Ping sweep the network sh mac-address table...

Script Below works BUT The problem is the requirement to have a vailid DISPLAY variable set in the environment, not a prob if you are on an X display, but most of the use of a 'cli' is the ability to schedule or run the command if you dont have an X display !!!. There could be several ways...

I hit a limit on previous versions as you described (arround 100) I am currenlty running 4th edition with the latest patches Netconfig Version is 3.3 I ran a job last week with 395 devices - 375 succeded - 20 failed due to timeout/passwords

You need access to the Routers ARP Cache, for the MAC to IP address information it contains. This can be accessed with a read only community string from the router. If you have RO access to a router you usally get cdp access as well (if it is a cisco router of course, and the community string is...

I have experience of CW2K LMS under WinNT. I know that the ANI server does not get installed until I install Campus Manager. I have not installed RWAN but cannot find the ANI servers in our install.

The suggestion for Win 98 is to check your CD drive is setup to boot. If 98 disk will boot then you have a faulty WinXP disk If the Win 98 CD will not boot then you have a faulty (possibly) CD drive/motherboard. Another Diag is to try the XP CD in another machine just to see if you get the...

Do you Have a win95, 98, 2000 Original CD that M$ used to allow to be shipped, they are all bootable CD's. Is the CD your using an 'opficcial' M$ CD then it also should be bootable. If not (A Copy :-) ) do you know how it was created? If it was done image copy then Ok, it should still be...
