Configuring the CMP System to Manage an MRA Cluster

The Policy Front End (also known as the MRA) device is a standalone entity that supports MPE servers in either a wireless mode. The CMP system is used to manage all MRA functions. Before this can occur, the CMP operating mode (Wireless) must support managing MRA clusters.

Follow these steps to configure the CMP to the operating mode so that it can manage MRA devices:

CAUTION: CMP operating modes should only be set in consultation with My Oracle Support. Setting modes inappropriately can result in the loss of network element connectivity, policy function, OM statistical data, and cluster redundancy.
  1. From the Help navigation pane, select About.

    The About page opens, displaying the CMP software release number.

  2. Click the Mode button.

    Consult with My Oracle Support for information about this button.

    The Mode Settings page opens.

  3. On the bottom of the page, select Manage MRAs.
  4. Click OK which closes the browser page and logs you out.
  5. Refresh the browser page.

    The Welcome admin page is displayed.

You are now ready to define an MRA cluster profile, specify network settings for the MRA cluster, and associate MPE devices with the MRA cluster.
