Deployment and Commissioning Process

Figure 4-3 IP Discovery Window
The contents of this window depend on how the window was launched. For example, if this window was
launched from an object in the physical containment view, then the Physical Location parameter would
be automatically set to the location from which the window was launched, as shown in Figure 4-3. For
more information on the CEMF Auto Discovery process, refer to the "Auto Discovery" chapter of the
CEMF 3.1 Users Guide.
When specifying the SNMP community string, use the read-write community string for the switch. If the
Note
read community string is used or appears first in the list of community strings, then that will be the
SNMP community string used for both the read and read-write operations by the C65/76M. As a result,
set operations will fail.
After the discovery process is complete, newly discovered objects will be automatically added to the
Network containers and Physical containers. In the Network container, the object will be placed under
the appropriate subnet. In the Physical container, discovered objects will be placed in the location based
on the value of the Physical Location parameter.
If one of the discovered devices is a Catalyst 6000 family switch or a Cisco 7600 series Internet Router,
then a C65/76M Network Element object will also be added into the Network containers, Physical
containers, and the appropriate Manager Views. The Software object is also automatically added to the
Manager View. In Figure 4-4, the Network Element object is labelled "192.168.12.105" and the
Software object is labelled "192.168.12.105-Software."
