[ixpmanager] New install step by step

[Vladislav Bidikov]

Hi,


I added a "Vendor" in IXP manager Huawei...


Also i have extended the OSS_SNMP with the following in the platform_huawei.php



// S5720-32C-HI-24S-AC Huawei Versatile Routing Platform Software VRP (R) software,Version 5.160 (S5720 V200R008C00SPC500) Copyright (C) 2007 Huawei Technologies Co.,Ltd.
// .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0 = OID: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.2.23.266

else if( (strpos ($sysDescr, "Huawei" ) !== false) && (strpos ($sysDescr, "S5720-32C-HI-24S-AC" )!== false) && (strpos ($sysDescr, "Version 5.160" )!== false) {

    $this->setVendor( 'Huawei' );
    $this->setModel( 'S5720' );
    $this->setOs( 'Huawei Versatile Routing Platform Software VRP' );
    $this->setOsVersion( '5.160' );
    $this->setOsDate( null );
}

This was based on the previous change Barry introduced for 6270  - with the correct changes and a match with strings (which is more useful in our case) - now the add switch snmp version crashed...


Any idea where can i debug things since the apache error log on the standard location does not output anything...



Thanks...

to be clear, the IP address section is used for what you’d allocate to
peers, and not to discover the switch for management purposes.

you can “add” additional vendors.  the key thing will be whether, or
not, your switch responds to snmp requests.  you can try a simple
snmpwalk from the command line and see what that returns.  ixpmanager
uses OSS_SNMP to make intelligent guesses about your device.  you’ll
find more information on device discovery here:
https://github.com/opensolutions/OSS_SNMP/wiki/Device-Discovery.
sorry, i’ve never used your switches, so i can’t add anything more
useful here.

use the bird repository from cznic, and not the default that ships with
your operating system.  other than that, read the “router” sections
of the documentation, as that will walk you through the steps that you
need to get your route server up and running.

good luck!
