Monitoring Servers. The CRS installation process automatically sets up and configures serviceability on these dedicated servers. Serviceability enables CiscoWorks support and third-party NMS support for the servers and includes: Cisco Discover Protocol (CDP) support, which enables the Media Convergence Server (MCS) to be • discovered automatically by CiscoWorks.
SNMP and its components provide you with information about your Cisco CRS system. You can refer to this information to monitor and manage the status of the Cisco CRS system, its subsystems, and its related installed components. You can also use this information to troubleshoot problems, if they arise.
SYSAPPL-MIB The SYSAPPL-MIB provides system information about installed packages, including product name, product version, URL of the Cisco CRS Administration page, run-time status, application start time, and currently running processes.

The trap receiver is the network management system (NMS) that receives the SNMP traps. This NMS must have the same SNMP community string as the trap sender. The Cisco CRS system sends traps that can be received by CiscoWorks and by standard third-party NMSs.
In the SNMP Service Configuration dialog box, enter the IP address or the host name of the host that is allowed to query the SNMP subagent. In the SNMP Service Configuration dialog box, click Add.

• About Trace Files A trace file is a log file that records activity from the Cisco CRS components. Trace files let you obtain specific, detailed information about the system that can help you troubleshoot problems. The Cisco CRS system can generate trace information for every component subfacility. This information is stored in a trace file.
CiscoMIVRnn.log. The system replaces nn with a number, starting with 01. You can configure the size of the trace file. When the size you configured is reached, or if a Cisco CRS component is restarted, the system creates a new trace file, incrementing nn by one. After creating the tenth trace file (by default), the trace file begins overwriting existing files, starting with the first trace file created.
A trace file that records all information for a component, such as the Cisco CRS Engine, can become large and difficult to read. To help you manage the trace file, the Cisco CRS system lets you specify the subfacilities for which you want to record information. These subfacilities are shown in the following table.

Campus Manager application Topology Services builds topology maps that display the CRS server and other Cisco devices. CDP is enabled on the Cisco CRS system by default. You must have the CDP driver enabled at all times for CiscoWorks to discover the CRS server.
Using the CDP Driver Using the CDP Driver Starting a system on which Cisco CRS is installed enables the CDP driver. You can use CDP to allow CiscoWorks to discover and manage your Cisco CRS systems. CiscoWorks uses the CDP cache MIB of the direct neighboring device to discover the Cisco CRS server.
To update the CDP protocol driver, restart CDP using the Windows Device Manager to update the CDP driver with the new IP address information. You do not have to reset the system after updating. Cisco Customer Response Solutions Servicing and Troubleshooting Guide, Release 5.0(1)
