Nortel Zenpack

I have made an updated zenpack for nortel switches. I have tested it on Passport 8000, Baystack 450,470, BPS2000 & ERS 4500 series switches. This zenpack is in beta state, testers needed. See the attached files. Only for 3.0+ zenoss also if someone knows how to interpret the snmp portlist of the vlan port members (rcVlanTable) let me now.

Instructions:

 

1. Put your Passport devices in /Devices/Network/Switch/Nortel/Passport/ < == tested with Passport 1624, Passport 8603 & Passport 8010

2. Put your Baystack 450,470, BPS2000 &  switches in /Devices/Network/Switch/Nortel/Baystack/ < == tested with 450,470 & BPS2000

 

1. Put your ERS Switches,  series in /Devices/Network/Switch/Nortel/ERS/ < == tested with ERS4526t - 4526gt & 4526gtx.

 

3. If you want to disable the events "threshold of operational status exceeded:". you have two options:

 

    first option, disable the threshold on the template ethernetcsmacd_64 named opeational status.

    second option, make shure that port not used on your passport are administratively down.

 

4. Thresholds Transforms for PassportCard (optional):

 

          Go to Events => Events Classes => Perf => Status, Next go and use the botton on the lower left of the windows an select transforms.

 

               Copy and Paste the code:

 

                             http://pastebin.com/8C2yML28

 

5. Thresholds Transforms for PassportInterfaceMap (optional): Events/Status/IpInterface

 

          Go to Events => Events Classes => Status => IpInterface, Next go and use the botton on the lower left of the windows an select transforms.

 

              Copy and Paste the code:

    Re: Nortel Zenpack

    I sucessfuly installed the Zenpack via the Gui, however, I am getting a lot of alerts that I am uncertain about, along with a couple of issues.

     

    1.  I am gettin this error on a lot of ports:  threshold of operational status exceeded: current value 2.00

     

    2.  The zenpack has /Network/Switch/Nortel/Passport/, but what about non passport switches?  The description says it supports (Baystack 450,470, BPS2000 & ERS 4500 series switches), but where would those switches go?  Do I place them in the passport directory as well?

     

    3.  Not all the modeler plugins I place are showing up, is there a reason for that?  I associated all the modeler plugins to my 8600, however, only a handful showed up after modeling the device.

     

    4.  Great work so far, I eagerly look forward to the completion of this MIB.  As a nortel(Avaya) shop, this has the potential to be a game changer for me.

    Re: Nortel Zenpack

    1.  I am gettin this error on a lot of ports:  threshold of operational status exceeded: current value 2.00

     

    put this transform in /Events/Status/IpInterface

     

    if evt.summary.startswith('threshold of operational status '):

        if evt.component.startswith('10/100BaseTX'):

            evt._action = "drop"

        elif evt.component.startswith('1000GbicSx'):

            evt._action = "drop"

        elif evt.component.startswith('1000GbicLx'):

            evt._action = "drop"

     

     

    if evt.summary.startswith('threshold of operational status '):

        devname = evt.device

        intname = evt.component

        descr = ''

        for iface in device.os.interfaces.objectItems():

                if iface[1].name() == evt.component:

                    descr = iface[1].description   

        if evt.severity > 0:   

     

            evt.summary = 'Interface %s  with Description (%s): Operationally Down' % (evt.component, descr)

     

        else:

            evt.summary = 'Interface %s  with Description (%s): Operationally Up' % (evt.component, descr)

     

    2.  The zenpack has /Network/Switch/Nortel/Passport/, but what about non passport switches?  The description says it supports (Baystack 450,470, BPS2000 & ERS 4500 series switches), but where would those switches go?  Do I place them in the passport directory as well?

     

    put the Baystack 450,470, BPS2000 & ERS 4500 devices in /Network/Switch/Nortel

     

    3.  Not all the modeler plugins I place are showing up, is there a reason for that?  I associated all the modeler plugins to my 8600, however, only a handful showed up after modeling the device.

     

    first, can you send me a screenshot of the modeler plugins of /Network/Switch/Nortel/Passport/. the modeller plugin setting are automatically mapped for this class. there is no need to do this manually just put your devices on the corresponding class.

     

    second, did you put your passport devices in the class /Network/Switch/Nortel/Passport/

    Re: Nortel Zenpack

    I have reproduced your error. Did you put any type of nortel 450,470, BPS2000, ERS4500 on the passport class? if so put this type of devices in /Network/Switch/Nortel/.

     

    Use this class /Network/Switch/Nortel/Passport/ only for Passport devices. Dont get mad is my fualt i dont give the correct instructions.

    Re: Nortel Zenpack

    "put this transform in /Events/Status/IpInterface"

     

    How do I go about doing that?  Forgive my ignorance.

    Re: Nortel Zenpack

    Under Vlan Tables, Port memebers looks something like this:

     

    000000000000000000000000000000000000000000c0

     

    or

     

    000000000000000000000000000000008fffffffff0f00000000000000000000000000000000

     

    This is on a 8600.
