- Run the program /u/wandl/bin/getipconf with the appropriate
command-line variables. For example, if your configuration files all
have the “.cfg” suffix, then type in the directory containing
your configuration files:$ /u/wandl/bin/getipconf
*.cfg
Refer to the tables above for other corresponding command-line options available. Running getipconf in the command line offers more options. These are listed in the table below.
Option
Description
-ospf ospfdatabase (Cisco and Juniper)
This uses the OSPF database for topology information. The CLI command used to retrieve the OSPF database is: show ip ospf database (for Cisco) and show ospf database router extensive (for Juniper).
This option is also available from File > Import Data wizard, Import Type, “OSPF Database”.
-ignoreIPUnnumbered
This option is used for performance issues. This option will cause interfaces that are “ip unnumbered” to be ignored.
-baseIntf baseIntf, -deltaIntf deltaIntf
These options are used for performance issues when importing a large set of config files, and are normally not modified. baseIntf (default=8192) controls the base hash table size. deltaIntf (default=2048) indicates the delta size by which the hash table should be increased after the hash table capacity has been reached.
-IPv6
This uses IPv6 addresses for link stitching. The default is not to use IPv6 for link stitching.
- Log onto the Paragon Planner client and go to the directory containing the getipconf output files.
- Open the newly created specification file and perform Layout>Recalculate Layout from the right-click menu of the map.
