In this lab I've got three Cisco routers running with ingenious three connected to a switch which in
turn has NPM connected to it.
Here's my NPM server.
And as an example I can paying 10 1 101 which is write a 1 on write to one as an example I can top debug
IP ICMP and back on NPM.
When a ping that IP address I'm getting echo replies sent on the Rada.
So the Rada is receiving the ICMP messages from the NPM server.
So log in under nodes.
Cisco I can see that I have three routers currently up.
So as an example right a one with IP address 10 1 101 is shown as up and I can see some information
about that device.
Now ingenious 3 I'm going to start capturing on the link from NPM to the switch.
I'll capture traffic on the switch interface what I'd like to point out is notice ICMP messages from
NPM the server has an IP address of 10 1 100 100.
That's what we're seeing as the source in the why shock capture so echo ping request and then here's
a response from the Rada.
So as an example I could filter for ICMP messages and what we could see.
Here's an example is ICMP message from NPM to write it to and rather to replying.
We can also do a search for S&P.
So in this example we've got an S&P message from NPM to write a three opening that up.
We can see it's a data request message.
It's trying to get this 0 I.D. information.
Here's a response back from the router more response information sent back.
Notice 0 I.D. information in the background NPM is requesting information from the writers.
In this example it's querying wrote it to and wrote it to is responding.
Here it's querying wrote a 3 and so forth and so on.
That information is then displayed in a nice graphical format on the NPM server.
As an example if I click on Write a one I can see information about this device.
I can see that it's up see its IP address see other information including a source object I.D. lost
to boot.
I could even click on the Telnet link and launch a telnet application to telnet directly to the device.
