3 Using the Cartridge

This chapter provides instructions for using the Oracle Communications Network Integrity MIB-II UIM Integration cartridge in Network Integrity.

Creating an Import MIB-II from UIM Scan

The Import MIB-II from UIM scan imports simple network management protocol (SNMP) logical devices from Oracle Communications Unified Inventory Management (UIM).

To create an Import MIB-II from UIM scan:

  1. Create a new scan.

    See the Network Integrity online Help for more information.

  2. On the General tab of the Create Scan page, do the following:

    • From the Scan Action list, select Import MIB-II From UIM.

      The Scan Type field displays Import.

    • In the Scan Action Parameters area, leave all the fields with their default values.

  3. Make any other required configurations.

  4. Save and run the scan.

    The logical device model is created for each device and used the deviceGeneric and interfaceGeneric specifications.

Populating UIM with Discovered Data

This procedure describes steps to populate UIM with network data.

To populate UIM with discovered network data:

  1. Create a new scan.

    See the Network Integrity online Help for more information.

  2. On the General tab of the Create Scan page, do the following:

    • From the Scan Action list, select Discover MIB-II SNMP.

      The Scan Type field displays Discover.

    • Select Detect Discrepancies.

    • In the Scan Action Parameters area, leave all the fields with their default values.

  3. Run the discovery scan.

    The scan generates one entity+ discrepancies for each device.

  4. Right-click on the discrepancies you want to populate into UIM and select Correct in UIM.

  5. Click Submit.

  6. Verify that UIM is populated with the discovered data.

You can now create an import scan to import the MIB-II data from UIM. You can run a new discovery scan with discrepancy detection which should not detect any discrepancies that you populated in UIM.
