Manually Deploying From A Network Element Object - Cisco WS-C3550-12G User Manual

Manually Deploying Network Objects
The deployed Network Element object(s) appear in the left-hand pane of the Map Viewer beneath the
generic object from which deployment was initiated and the corresponding icon(s) appear in the
right-hand pane of the Map Viewer. The Software and Chassis objects appear beneath the Network
Element object in the left-hand pane of the Map Viewer and the corresponding icon(s) appear in the
right-hand pane of the Map Viewer.
If you opted to commission the Network Element as part of deployment through the selected Deployment
Commissioning Mode (as described in
discovery initiates thereby communicating the switch inventory (or contents of the device) to the EMS.
Following subchassis discovery, subchassis objects appear beneath the Chassis object in the left-hand
pane of the Map Viewer and the corresponding icon(s) appear in the right-hand pane of the Map Viewer.
Additionally, when selected the Chassis object is selected in the left-hand pane of the Map Viewer, the
chassis map appears in the right-hand pane of the Map Viewer.
If you opted to deploy the Network Element by selecting the Decommissioned option from Deployment
Commissioning Mode as described in
decommissioned). At any time following successful chassis deployment, you may initiate chassis and
subchassis discovery by commissioning the chassis. Until you do so, the chassis remains in an
unmanaged state (e.g., decommissioned). For further information, see the
Network Elements" section on page
If you opted to predeploy the Network Element as an Auto–commissioned object from the Deployment
Commissioning Mode field as described in
decommissioned). Once the predeployed Network Element is available on the network, the chassis
object automatically commissions and initiates subchassis discovery. Objects appear within the Map
Viewer as previously described.
