NE file system browsing
A 5620 SAM operator can browse the file system of a managed NE to list the
contents of the compact flash devices. You can browse the file system of a
7210 SAS, 7450 ESS, 7705 SAR, 7710 SR, 7750 SR, 7950 XRS, or OmniSwitch
using simple FTP or a CLI session using SSH. The 5620 SAM GUI is used to browse
the different types of files.
Browsing an NE file system using the 5620 SAM is a convenient way to confirm that
operations such as the following occur as planned by verifying the sizes and time
stamps of local NE files:
• NE configuration saves
• NE software image transfers and upgrades
• NE configuration restores
• NE accounting-statistics collection
FTP file browsing on an NE requires FTP user-account access on the NE. SSH file
browsing requires console user-account access and the configuration of SSH security
on the NE. See the 5620 SAM User Guide for information about enabling FTP or
console access for an NE user account or configuring SSH on an NE.
See Procedure 8-35 for information about browsing an NE file system using an FTP
file browser. See Procedure 8-36 for information about browsing an NE file system
using an SSH file browser.
Sample deployment policy configuration
The following example describes the configuration and operation of a 5620 SAM
deployment policy. See Procedure 8-2 for deployment policy configuration
information.
Example details
The example policy settings are the following:
• Auto Save Scheme—Every Nth Successful Deployment
Initiate a device configuration save after the number of configuration changes
specified by Auto Save Threshold.
• Auto Save Threshold—3
Initiate a configuration save after every three successful deployments, if Auto
Save Scheme is set to Every Nth Successful Deployment.
• Scheduled Save Scheme—None
Do not perform a scheduled configuration save on any NE.
• Scheduled Save Interval—1 hour
If scheduled saves are enabled, perform a save every hour.
• Save Details—disabled
Save only non-default parameter values.
Note — The 7705 SAR may become temporarily unreachable when
enabling SSH and starting the SSH server on the device.
