Syslog Viewer – Create Alarm
Topology POD Visualization
• vDC visibility in Topo
• vPC link view
• Topo POD view
• Visibility to LAG links
Device Troubleshooting using 360 view
• Shows concise details in context
• Easily accessible tools to
troubleshoot device
• Shows health of the devices over
time
• Indicates alarms on the device,
neighbors, interface status
• PI will be able to Manage
multiple VDCs
• Admin VDC will have 2 tabs to
show
• Admin VDC
• Managed VDC
• All the VDC shows as different
devices in the topology view
Port Channel Monitoring
• Port Channel interface monitoring
• N Hop topo showing health of Channel
interfaces
Critical Link view
Use Case : DC Network Compliance
Show parent child topology of the Spine and Leaf devices in the Data Center location. Collect network Faults from devices and tie it back to the DC elements
Network Visibility with N9k Stand alone mode devices

is high
Application
Admin
• Check that new Nexus 9Ks are managed
• Create a profile for “trap destination” configuration
• Create a policy to run this on the DC devices
• Schedule the policy
• Raise Alarm or event on PI if any device has violated the policy
• Notify north bound ticketing systems to raise a ticket
Nexus 95K
Nexus 93K
Configuration Baseline Compliance
• New in Prime Infrastructure 3.0
