View Device Statistics and Inventory information

You can use the Device-Name page to view statistics, inventory and the configuration templates assigned to the device.

To access this page:

  1. Select Configuration > Devices.

    The Device page appears.

  2. Click a device in the Device Name column of the Devices list.

    The Device-Name appears displaying the Overview, Inventory, and Configuration Template tabs.

View Device Statistics

To view the device statistics, click the Overview tab on the Device-Name page to view information about the device. The overview tab displays the Chassis View and the widgets listed in Table 2.

You can view the following information on the Overview tab of the <device-name> page:

  • The Chassis View, present at the top of the Overview tab, displays the device ports as icons. Hover over the ports icon to view the details, such as input and output bandwidth, port mode, negotiated speed, input and output errors, and admin status of the port.

    For a Virtual Chassis, Chassis Cluster, or dual Routing Engine, the member devices are listed on the left side of the chassis view. Clicking the member devices displays the ports of the member device.

    Note:

    When you click a device on the Devices page, you cannot view the chassis details if the menu bar, which is available on the left-side of the Paragon Automation GUI, is expanded. Minimize the menu bar to view the chassis details.

    Chassis view is not supported for Nokia and Cisco-IOS XR devices.

    At the top of the Chassis view, system meters are provided to display data about functioning of the device components such as CPU, memory, storage and fan. If data is not collected for the system meters (for example, due to issue with telemetry manager service), dummy data is displayed.

    Table 1 lists the system meters present on the top right-corner of the Chassis View.

    Table 1: Widgets on the Overview Tab

    The data on the widgets is refreshed.

View Device Inventory

To view inventory of a device, click the Inventory tab on the <Device-Name> page. A device inventory comprises hardware components (Chassis, FPC, PIC, and Interfaces) and software components (Licenses, Features, and Software).

Paragon Automation displays the inventory of a device containing data retrieved from the device during discovery and resynchronization operations. This inventory includes the number of available slots, power supplies, chassis cards, fans, part numbers, and so on. Sorting is disabled on the Chassis tab to preserve the natural slot order of the devices.

Paragon Automation displays the inventory information for primary and the member devices for dual Routing Engines, Chassis Clusters, and Virtual Chassis.

Note:

For Juniper Networks and Cisco IOS XR devices, the inventory is synchronized whenever a change in the components is indicated in the device system log.

The inventory tab displays the following information:

  • Chassis—View the hierarchical list of all the hardware components present on the chassis, and the associated physical interfaces and logical interfaces. Table 3 describes the fields displayed on the Chassis tab.

  • Interfaces—View details of the interfaces present on the chassis, line card, FPC, and MICs. Table 4 describes the fields displayed on this tab.

    You can perform the following functions on this tab:

    • Change the administration status of an interface by selecting the interface and clicking More > Change Admin Status.

      A message indicating the change in the admin status is initiated is displayed along with the job ID. Click the link job ID link to view the progress of the job on the Jobs page (Monitoring > Jobs). The admin status is changed after the job completes successfully.

      Note:

      For Nokia devices, you cannot change the admin-status of a port from the Inventory tab.

    • View the following details of an interface, as widgets, by clicking on the interface link:

      • General details, such as the port name, IP address, admin status, link status, and so on of the interface.
