Cirrus network configuration manager-need guidance.

Question

Hello,

My company had a license for Cirrus configuration manager a while ago and I beleive it has been expired. I want to renew this license and setup the network management again in a new location. I have never setup a NCM before and would like to know if there are detailed steps anywhere I can follow to do so.

I have a Dell Poweredge 1750 and I know I need to arrange for a machine for console. Can anyone explain me how do I connect these devices in my network and bring the NCM up and running?

Thank you.

Regards,

Shivani

NCM device support is based on device command templates. NCM provides out of the box support for over 15 different vendors and 100s of different device models.

For devices not supported out of the box, NCM includes the ability to extend the default device support by creating or modifying device command templates.

To learn more, please see the NCM Admin Guide:  http://www.solarwinds.net/support/orionNCM/docs/OrionNCMAdministratorGuide.pdf
