Modeling a Device

130
For most undeployed device types, you can create a device configuration in NSM, and
then install that device configuration on the physical device. For ScreenOS devices, you
can use Rapid Deployment (RD) to quickly provision multiple devices in nontechnical
environments. See "Using Rapid Deployment (ScreenOS Only)" on page 138 for details.
You cannot model and activate a Secure Access or Infranet Controller device. You must
import these devices to add them to NSM.
Adding a single undeployed device to NSM is a four-stage process:
Model the device in the UI.
1.
Create the device object configuration.
2.
Activate the device.
3.
Update the device configuration.
4.
For details on modeling multiple devices at one time, see "Adding Many Devices Using
CSV Files" on page 168.
To model a device, you must know the device type and OS name and version that is
running on the device.
To activate a device:
You must have the device connection information and device administrator name and
password.
NOTE: All passwords handled by NSM are case-sensitive.
The device must be staged; that is, it must be physically connected to your network
and able to access network resources.
The device must have at least one interface that has an IP address. Devices that use
dynamically assigned IP address must also support NACN.
To add and model a device:
From the domain menu, select the domain in which you want to model the device.
1.
In Device Manager, select Devices.
2.
Click the Add icon, and then select Device. The device wizard appears.
3.
Select Model Device, and then click Next.
4.
