Getting Started

AAA Configuration
To implement AAA change detection, NAS installs an agent on your AAA
server. The agent parses the logs of the AAA application and forwards
appropriate logs to NAS over port 1099. From the AAA logs, NAS can detect
when a user logs in and out of devices, enabling NAS to report who made a
change and when.
The agent causes minimal load on your AAA server. The agent makes only
outbound connections. It does not accept incoming connections and does not
open any security holes on the server.
NAS supports CiscoSecure ACS directly. For help configuring AAA, or if you
use another AAA server, contact Customer Support.
Note: If your network already uses Radius or TACACS+, you should create a
separate user name and password for NAS. If you do this, put the Radius or TACACS+
user name in the AAA User Name field on the Edit User page.

18
Device Driver Reference

Protocols and Ports

NAS communicates with network devices using a combination of the protocols
listed in the table below. If a firewall is present between the NAS server and
the network devices, you must provide NAS access to the devices by opening
the ports used by those protocols.

Driver Details
NAS detects device changes using Syslog notifications, among other methods.
For NAS to detect device changes, you must either enable NAS to configure
Syslog automatically (the default) or enable logging on each device using the
device settings detailed in the following sections. All standard features and
protocols work as expected in NAS unless otherwise noted.

Known Issues
Device configuration consists of diagnostic results and cannot be
deployed
The device does not have any canonical configuration file or output.
Consequently, NAS captures the output of a number of device diagnostics that
provide information about the device's current configuration. This collected
information is not in a format that can be restored to the device directly.
Therefore, configuration deployment is not supported.
Change password task may fail, but appear to succeed
To change the password for a user, the user must exist in NAS. NAS will not
create a new user account and create a password. However, NAS can report a
successful password change because the device does not report a problem
with NAS attempt to change the password.
User's password and SNMP community string cannot be changed
simultaneously
The operating system on the device associates users with levels (such as
manager, monitor, and security), and associates an SNMP community string
with a user account. An SNMP community string cannot exist without an
associated user account. When changing passwords, the operating system
offers to change the SNMP community string at the same time. NAS does not
modify the SNMP community string for a user whose password was just
changed.
Real-time change detection available only through Telnet/SSH proxy
The device does not support Syslog or AAA and therefore cannot provide any
real-time change detection through those means. The Telnet/SSH proxy is the
only mechanism in NAS that will result in automatic detection of changes to
the device configuration.

26
Device Driver Reference

Multi-line commands are ignored by the device

The device ignores multi-line commands (commands that require multiple
lines of input before returning to the device prompt). Issuing a command such
as snmp comm\r\nc1\r\n results in the execution of the snmp comm
command. Everything else in the command line is ignored.
Workaround:
The device automatically fills any subsequent prompting of a command with
the next item on the original command line. Consequently, the command
snmp comm c1 automatically answers the first prompt from the snmp
comm command with c1.
To get the device to properly return to a device prompt (and thereby not
result in a failed script), an answer to every prompt the command might issue
must be provided on the original command line.

Known Issues
Configuration Deployment may cause duplicate configuration options
Deploying certain configuration commands may cause the device to produce
multiple duplicate configuration lines. For example, the system management
snmp trap create command has been seen to generate multiple configuration
statements.
Workaround:
Unless you are creating a new configuration using a similar command, remove
commands such as the system management snmp trap create command
from the configuration before deploying the configuration to the device.
Real-time change detection available only through Telnet/SSH proxy
The device does not support Syslog or AAA, and therefore cannot provide any
real-time change detection through those means. The Telnet/SSH proxy is the
only mechanism in NAS that will result in automatic detection of changes to
the device configuration.

Known Issues
Strict password controls require synchronization of passwords
The 3Com 5500EI 24 port switch implements strict password controls that
limit NAS to a single Administrative user. This username is mutable, however
its password is automatically synchronized with the super or enable password.
Additionally, user passwords are maintained in a history file and therefore
must remain unique upon subsequent deployments.

Changing the login password using SSH
When attempting to change the login password using SSH as the access

internal error. Note that this issue has not been observed when using Telnet as
the access protocol.
Deploying Configurations
If you edit one command of a stored configuration on an Alcatel device and
then deploy just that configuration command change without deploying the
entire configuration, the one command change replaces the entire
configuration.

Known Issues
Unable to discover driver via Telnet
The BlueCoat ProxySG has a default banner for Telnet logins that causes
driver discovery to fail to recognize the device. As a result, discovery via
Telnet will always fail on the BlueCoat ProxySG. Discovery via SNMP or SSH
will work correctly.
Changes in community strings not detected
The BlueCoat ProxySG encrypts community strings in its configuration. This
encryption scheme results in a changed encrypted community string with
every snapshot. These changes are masked out to prevent every snapshot
from indicating a change, but actual changes to SNMP community strings will
therefore not be detected.

objects.C and rules.C Configuration Files
If the Check Point device is managed by a Check Point management engine, it
is unnecessary for NAS to capture the objects.C and rules.C configuration files
for this device. Instead, configure the Check Point management engine within
NAS with the access variable checkpointManagementEngine. This will force
NAS to capture the global objects.C and rules.C from the Check Point
management engine. The data is mostly redundant, as the Check Point
management engine submits the information to all of the nodes for which it is
responsible.

Known Issues
Real-time change detection via Syslog is limited
The ability to detect a configuration change via Syslog is limited to looking for
a reload message. No other Syslog messages from the device will indicate the
possibility of a configuration change. This means that, effectively, real-time
change detection via Syslog is not supported.
Custom diagnostics not supported
The driver performs custom scripting by deploying a script to the device via
TFTP. This method of scripting is incompatible with the custom diagnostics
feature. Therefore, although the driver will allow for the creation of custom
scripts, it will not allow for the creation of custom diagnostics.
Workaround:
Use a custom script to perform diagnostics. This will not result in captured
diagnostic data being stored. You will need to review the results of the
command script task instead.

ACL remarks will get duplicated on deployment

Cisco devices can maintain multiple lines of remarks for access list
specifications. The device does not check for duplication of remark lines. Any
deployment of a remark back to the running configuration of the device will
create another remark line (a duplicate).
Workaround:
Use NAS persistent comments for ACL remarks. This capability is handled
automatically by using ACL comments in NAS.
Routing Table diagnostic shows BGP summary if BGP enabled
If BGP is enabled, the Routing Table diagnostic will provide the results of the
show ip bgp summary command. This prevents NAS from requesting and
storing a routing table that is likely to be extraordinarily large and timeconsuming to capture.
During Software Update task, the Delete Files action may not succeed
if image filenames are non-standard
During a Software Image Update task, NAS attempts to upload a new
software image with the same filename as the existing image. Some IOS
versions do not support this. Choosing the Delete files option from selected
slot option, compact memory can support the image update by deleting the
existing file before attempting to upload the new image. However, this action
succeeds only if the existing image uses the default .bin filename extension.
If the image file has been renamed using a non-default extension, NAS cannot
find or delete the file and the new image cannot be uploaded. The Device
Software Update task will fail. In these cases use a different image filename.
Alternatively, you can prepare the flash manually or via a custom command
script before deploying the software image.
Note: The Delete Files operation deletes only .bin file extensions to prevent any
configuration or crash information files in flash memory from being deleted.

Software Center functionality is not supported on Cisco 2500 routers

Remark lines are replicated when access list is redeployed
Cisco IOS devices enable users to enter more than one remark line per access
list. When this access list is redeployed, the device replicates each remark
line.

ACL remarks will get duplicated on deployment

Cisco devices can maintain multiple lines of remarks for access list
specifications. The device does not check for duplication of remark lines.
Consequently, any deployment of a remark back to the running configuration
of the device will create another remark line (a duplicate).
Workaround:
Use NAS persistent comments for ACL remarks. This capability is handled
automatically by using ACL comments in NAS.
During the Software Update task, the Delete Files action may not
succeed if image filenames are non-standard
During a Software Image Update task, NAS attempts to upload a new
software image with the same filename as the existing image. Some IOS
versions do not support this task. Choosing the Delete files from selected slot
option, compact memory can support the image update by deleting the
existing file before attempting to upload the new image. However, this action
succeeds only if the existing image uses the default filename extension .bin.
If the image file has been renamed using a non-default extension, NAS cannot
find or delete the file and the new image cannot be uploaded. The Device
Software Update task will fail. In these cases use a different image filename.
Alternatively, you can prepare the flash manually or via a custom command
script before deploying the software image.
Note: The Delete Files task deletes only .bin file extensions to prevent any
configuration or crash information files in flash memory from being deleted.

Remark lines are replicated when access list is redeployed

Some Cisco IOS devices enable users to enter more than one remark line per
access list. When this access list is redeployed, the device replicates each
remark line.
Workaround:
Use the NAS commenting feature to create and track configuration comments.

deploy configuration files via SNMP. IOS 11.x and early IOS 12.0/12.1
releases do not support this MIB. Therefore, configuration deployment is not
supported on these older OS versions.
When the MIB is not supported, you will see the following error message:
The system could not deploy this config - Execution step resulted
in total bypass. Check the connections methods supported by the
device.
To deploy configurations on the Catalyst 4000 through SNMP, you must

Changing the TFTP interface access setting
To retrieve (or deploy) a PIX device configuration using TFTP, you may need to
specify the TFTP interface to use on the device. If the device self-selects the
wrong interface for the TFTP settings, you can override the TFTP interface
access setting in the device's password rules in NAS. Keep in mind that you
must either set up a device-specific password rule or define a password rule
that applies specifically to PIX devices that are exhibiting this problem.
To change a device password rule:
1. Edit the device and select Use device-specific password information or
create or edit a device password rule applying to the appropriate
device(s).
2. Click Show Device Access Settings.
3. Choose PIX TFTP interface from one of the drop-down menus for
Name.
4. Enter the desired interface (for example outside) for the Value of this
setting.
5. Ensure all other authentication information is correct and save the
device or password rule.

140
Device Driver Reference

Double-check deployed configurations

The PIX occasionally has difficulty merging new configuration commands with
the existing configuration. Because of this, you should double-check PIX
configurations after you deploy them from NAS.
1. Take a snapshot of the configuration.
2. Check if your changes were deployed to the running configuration as
expected. Sometimes NAS reports the deployment as failed, but still
applies changes to the running configuration.
No support for real-time change detection via AAA
The PIX does not support accounting sessions. Therefore, NAS cannot provide
real-time change detection through AAA.

Known Issues
Active software images cannot be deleted
If a software image is Active on the device, it cannot be deleted. An attempt
to delete an active image will cause the task to fail.
Workaround:
Deploy a new image first. Once the device has reloaded and accepted the new
image, delete the old image in a new task.
Setting the boot image will reboot the device
When an new image is added to the device and the system is instructed to use
the image to boot the device, the device will reload.
Workaround:
Only update the image when it is acceptable for the device to reload.

Known Issues
Configuration commands shuffled and reformatted during deployment
After you deploy a configuration, it is common for Extreme devices to shuffle
or change the format of commands in the configuration file. Afterwards, it
appears that numerous lines were added, removed, or modified when
comparing configurations. You must inspect the configuration manually to
determine which commands were moved and which were actually changed by
the deploy task.
Ensure two blank lines follow banner when deploying configuration
Extreme devices support multi-line banners. Two blank lines following a
banner definition indicate that the banner is complete. If there are less than
two blank lines following the banner, the Extreme device will interpret the
remainder of the configuration as part of the banner. It is important to ensure
that these blank lines are always in the correct place and not to insert in-line
comments in a manner that might disrupt this.
Extreme Summit 200 and 400 series do not support hardware
information diagnostic
The Extreme Summit 200 and 400 series devices do not support the
commands used by the hardware information diagnostic. Attempts to run this
diagnostic against these devices will result in a failure.

177
Driver Details

Ping results vary in number of attempts

Extreme devices run the Ping test until manually cancelled. NAS handles this
by initiating the Ping test, waiting five seconds, then interrupting the Ping test
and capturing the results. A typical Ping test shows the results of between two
and eight cycles.
Changing user name via Password Management will delete previous
account
The limited access username and password in Password Management
relates to a user account on Extreme devices. Similarly, the full access
username and password relates to an admin account. If you change the
name of either of these accounts, the existing account will be deleted to
ensure that old usernames do not remain on the device as a back door.
Extreme Summit maintains default community strings unless
explicitly overridden
The Extreme Summit always defaults to a read-only community string of
public and a read/write community string of private. These values are
accepted by the device unless you explicitly define other values for the readonly and read/write community strings. If you delete your community string
values, the defaults are automatically restored.

Known Issues
Transition from TFTP to CLI snapshot may shuffle commands
The Extreme Black Diamond may report spurious configuration changes due
to shuffling command order if NAS transitions from capturing the
configuration via TFTP to capturing it via CLI (such as in the event of a TFTP
failure).
Configuration commands shuffled and reformatted during deployment
After you deploy a configuration, it is common for Extreme devices to shuffle
or change the format of commands in the configuration file. Afterwards, it
appears that numerous lines were added, removed, or modified when
comparing configurations. You must inspect the configuration manually to
determine which commands were moved and which were actually changed by
the deploy task.

recommended that you disable Telnet as a protocol for these devices to avoid
unnecessary failures.

unnecessary failures.
Use Edit & Deploy to modify community strings
Community string management is not supported by NAS Password
Management. However, you can use Edit & Deploy to modify device
community strings if necessary.
Use integrated SSH, console port, or F5 GUI to ensure real-time
change detection
For real-time change detection, it is recommended that you use the NAS
integrated SSH client, the console port, or the device's graphical user
interface (GUI). Otherwise, NAS may not detect configuration changes.

of Foundry devices to ensure that snapshots and polling work correctly.
Configuration deployment through SNMP
When deploying configurations to Foundry devices through SNMP, you must:

Include the no snmp-server pw-check command.

Not use the snmp-client <ip> command or use the IP address of the
NAS server.

Software upload may fail due to TFTP server timeout

An attempt to upload software to a Foundry device via TFTP may fail. During a
TFTP transfer, the Foundry performs various memory cleanup operations that
require additional processing time. The TFTP server times-out if the server's
timeout property value is set too low. The default value is 3000 milliseconds
(3 seconds). When this error occurs, the following message is displayed on
the Task Details page: Script - Failed
Although the task shows as failed, the software may have been successfully
uploaded. However, the reboot process fails. You can eliminate this problem
by setting the value of the timeout property in the [Link] file to a
higher value.

199
Driver Details

To set the TFTP server timeout property:

1. On the Windows NAS server, go to C:\Rendition\server\ext\tftp.
2. Using a text editor, such as Notepad, open the [Link] file.
3. Edit the TFTP timeout socketTimeout property to a value between
5000 and 10000 (5 to 10 seconds).

Known Issues
Unable to store proxy session logs
NAS is unable to parse the session logs from a ProCurve proxy session.
Therefore, proxy session logs are not stored for the ProCurve.
Device can become unresponsive is accessed with SSHv2
When an attempt is made to connect to a ProCurve device via SSHv2, the
device can become unresponsive (hang) and not return a valid response. If
you see this occurring, you should disable SSHv2 in NAS.
Deployment can fail due to slow TFTP retrieval
The Procurve may not download its configuration file as fast as NAS expects it
to. Consequently, the configuration file is removed from the TFTP server
directory before the device has completed loading it. This will cause the TFTP
process to fail and the deployed changes will not appear on the device. You
can override the tftpDelay Device Access Setting (default is 10 seconds) and
set a higher value if necessary.

Known Issues
Invalid configurations could be due to TFTP failures
The Juniper (Redline) does not report failure conditions when exporting a
configuration via TFTP. If the device is reporting invalid configurations, this
could be due to unreported TFTP failures by the device.
Workaround:
Capture the session log of a snapshot and look for the export commands
being run on the device. Check to see if the specified TFTP server in the
command is correct. If it is correct, you might need to manually debug TFTP
transfers from the device to the NAS server. Alternately, you can edit the
device and disable TFTP. The configuration will be captured directly from the
CLI session.

Known Issues
Authentication failures may result from too many open sessions
Prior to version 8.0, the Marconi Fore OS supported only one session per
device (after 8.0 it allows two). If the maximum number of sessions are
already established, any subsequent attempt to connect to the device will
result in a failure to connect. This failure will appear in NAS as an
authentication error. In fact, however, the authentication information used by
NAS may be acceptable, but the device does not have any sessions available.
Deployment to running configuration may not apply all configuration
changes
Some configuration commands on Marconi Fore devices will not take effect
until after a reboot. Therefore, attempts to deploy to the device's running
configuration may not apply all desired changes to the configuration. You
should use the Deploy to startup config and reboot option to deploy
configurations if you think there is a chance some of the commands you are
deploying may not take effect without a reboot.

Known Issues
NAS may fail to connect if maximum logins are exceeded
NetScreen devices allow a maximum of three terminal sessions. If NAS tries
to login when the maximum number of sessions are already established, NAS
will fail to login to the device. All tasks requiring CLI access, including
snapshost, password changes, and configuration deployments, will fail in this
case.
Certain configuration commands cannot be used in deployment
NetScreen devices do not accept certain commands when deploying
configurations to the device. For example, the device does not allow you to
modify the set admin sys-location command via Deploy Configuration. In
addition, NetScreen devices occasionally have difficulty merging new
configuration commands with the existing configuration. Opsware
recommends that you verify the NetScreen configuration after you deploy it
from NAS.
To verify that your changes were correctly deployed to the running
configuration, use the Compare to Previous link provided in the task details
of a successful Deploy Configuration task.

Known Issues
Configuration changes containing errors may be captured
Nortel Alteon devices buffer configuration changes until they are saved and
applied. There may be cases where these buffered changes contain errors that
will not manifest until the configuration is saved. NAS may therefore capture a
configuration state that contains these errors. Later, when the changes are
saved, the device will discard all erroneous changes and NAS will end up with
a copy of the device configuration that is not consistent with what is actually
running on the device.
Avoid deploying software images with .img extensions
If you deploy an image with the extension .img to a Nortel Alteon device, it
will reload and reset its configuration and default settings. Passwords will also
be reset by the device. You should perform this task manually via the console
port since the device must be reconfigured by the user following reload (refer
to the WLAN Security Switch 1.0 User's Guide and Command Reference,
Chapter 2, Reinstalling the Software). The preferred extension for images to
deploy is .pkg.

Configuration changes containing errors may be captured
Nortel Alteon devices buffer configuration changes until they are saved and
applied. There may be cases where these buffered changes contain errors that
will not manifest until the configuration is saved. NAS may therefore capture a
configuration state that contains these errors. Later, when the changes are
saved, the device will discard all erroneous changes and NAS will end up with
a copy of the device configuration that is not consistent with what is actually
running on the device.

Full access users in password management always match NAS user
for device
The full access username and password available to manage through the
Password management feature are the username and password used by NAS
to log into the device. This means that the username and password for the
device in NAS will change which username and password is managed in
Password Management. The reason for this is that the device can only change
the password of the user logged in.

Common Alteon custom command script and diagnostic mode

The mode for custom command scripts and diagnostics for all Nortel Alteon
drivers is shared across a family of devices that use a similar, but not
identical, operating system. This means that though many custom command
scripts and diagnostics defined for the Nortel Alteon exec mode will be
applicable to all devices supporting this mode, some will not work across all
such devices.
In almost all cases, the potential damage of running a script. containing a
command not supported by a given device will simply be that the script fails
with an error.
You can use the for specific driver selection when defining a command script
or diagnostic if you want to tailor it to one member of the family of devices. As
an example, consider a diagnostic that runs the /info/local command. This
diagnostic will run successfully on a Nortel Alteon WSS or SSL, but will fail on
a Nortel Alteon ASF (which does not support this command). In defining such
a diagnostic, you would want to choose only the WSS and SSL drivers as
supported.

Periodic Telnet failures if device remains dormant
Occasionally, if the device is not accessed regularly it will fail to respond to
Telnet sessions. You can create a simple command script to wake up the
device on a regular basis. For example, create a command script that sends
an arbitrary command to the device. In the event of a snapshot failure, you
can run this command script a few times to wake up the device or you can
set up the script to run on a regular basis to limit occurrences of this device
failure.
If you schedule the script to run on a recurring basis, it should be setup to run
as often as you poll devices on your network.

249
Driver Details

The command script to create for this purpose should have the following
information defined:

Name: Wake Up BayStack

Description: Script to wake up BayStack device(s)

Mode: Baystack initialization

Driver: {select either the BayStack 470 driver or All applicable drivers}

Script: show banner

Device configuration is binary with supplementary text data

The device stores its configuration in a binary format that cannot be decoded.
NAS captures this configuration and then captures the output of a number of
device diagnostics to provide a textual representation of the device's current
configuration. The device will produce a different binary configuration on
every snapshot, even if no actual configuration information on the device has
changed. As a result, NAS ignores changes in the binary configuration and
uses the captured device diagnostic text to determine if any significant
configuration change has occurred since the last snapshot that requires a new
configuration to be saved.
Note: It is possible that this diagnostic data will not completely represent all
configuration options on the device. It is recommended that you setup a regular
checkpoint snapshot of the device once a week to ensure that any extra
configuration information is being collected.

Configuration deployment can change passwords and ignore settings

A configuration deployment to a BayStack 470 resets the full-access login
password to the hard-coded default password (secure). The NAS
configuration deployment script takes this into account by changing the
authentication information in the database to match the hard-coded default.
However, if the BayStack 470 is configured for RADIUS authentication, the
full-access login password is hidden and the BayStack 470 continues to use
RADIUS authentication. In the case of RADIUS authentication, NAS changes
the database authentication information and relies on password fallback to
access the device if there is a RADIUS authentication challenge.

250
Device Driver Reference

Note: Nortel has indicated that when doing a configuration deployment to the
BayStack 470, the IP address settings remain unchanged (i.e., the deployed
configuration's settings are ignored). Although these are the only settings explicitly
cited by Nortel to be ignored, it is possible the BayStack 470 could ignore other
settings in your deployed configuration.

Real-time change detection via Syslog is not supported

The device does not send Syslog messages that can reliably indicated
configuration changes. Therefore, real-time configuration change detection
via Syslog is not available.

SSH Discovery
For some OS versions, SSH is disabled after a software update. As a result,
SSH discovery fails.
Automatic reload after a software update
For some OS versions, the device will automatically reload after a software
update or diagnostic is deployed. For these OS versions, NAS does not wait
long enough before running the device discovery task. As a result, all software
updates are successfully deployed, however the device discovery task fails.
Workaround: If the device discovery task fails, wait at least five minutes after
the software update has completed and then run a new device discovery task
to re-discover the device.
Deploying a configuration using SSH
When deploying a configuration using SSH that includes the auto-negotiationadvertisements port 1-24 command, the SSH session is interrupted. As a
result, the configuration deployment fails.
Workaround: Use Telnet when deploying a configuration.

Known Issues
TFTP configuration capture could fail
When NAS requests a snapshot of the device configuration, the task may
report Cannot find the file specified. This error is caused by the filename
handling on the device. The complete configuration filename string sent by
NAS will occasionally be dropped from the device's buffer. As a result, the
device is unable to find the exact filename in the TFTP directory.
Workaround:
To minimize this issue, when you add a BayStack 350 or 450 device to NAS,
try setting the Snapshot task Retry Count for the device group to which the
device belongs to Once or Twice. You can access these settings via the
Pending Tasks page (Tasks --> Pending Tasks). In the Pending Tasks table,
find the Task Type:Snapshot for the device or its device group (Host/Group
column). In the Actions column, click Edit. This link displays the Edit
Task:Snapshot page.
Deployed configurations will always indicate a configuration change
Any deployed configuration, whether it actually changes the device
configuration or not, is displayed as a change in NAS. This is due to
unavoidable incidental changes to the binary configuration file on the device
whenever a configuration is deployed.

256
Device Driver Reference

Software update requires multiple steps

BayStack 350 and 450 software updates require multiple images to be
uploaded (typically Boot and Agent images). The device will reboot
automatically after each image upload. Opsware makes the following
recommendations with regards to software updates on these devices:
1. The recommended best practice is not to use a single task to do fully
automated software updates on these devices in a production
environment. Rather, the recommended engineering practice is to
upload each image independently and verify the correct functioning of
the device before proceeding to the next upload task. In this usage, each
image is contained in its own Image Set.
2. If a fully automated update is desired and deemed safe, the
recommended best practice is to use a Multi-Task Project to include two
individual image updates. This will ensure the images are uploaded in
the proper order, which is important to ensure a successful update.
3. Uploading images as a single Image Set within a single Software Update
task may work within some environments. However, it is not
recommended as the image upload order is not guaranteed.
Real-time change detection via Syslog is not supported
The device does not send Syslog messages that can reliably indicated
configuration changes. Therefore, real-time configuration change detection
via Syslog is not available.

Known Issues
Discovery through CLI of Nortel ASN devices may fail due to high NAS
server load
Nortel ASN devices may not be discovered through CLI when the NAS system
is under heavy load, such as when there is extensive logging by the NAS
system and concurrent tasks are running inventory discovery tasks with
store session log enabled. As a result, ASN devices may not respond to CLI
command queries fast enough and the discovery task may fail for some or all
of these types of devices.
It is recommended that you set up ASN devices for SNMP access by the NAS
server, or if this is not feasible, manually assign the driver to the devices
exhibiting this behavior.
Unsupported OS versions will result in discovery failure
Due to problems encountered with various OS versions on BayRS devices,
discovery of the driver is limited by an explicit list of OS versions. NAS will
only discover the BayRS driver for OS versions it supports.
Workaround:
You can add additional OS versions to support your system if necessary.
Contact Opsware Tech Support for more information.
Low memory may result in failed CLI login attempts
BayRS routers will deny CLI login attempts if there is not enough memory
available to support them. On devices that are low on memory, such failures
can cause NAS device tasks to fail unexpectedly. If the device is low on
memory, you may see error messages such as:
Retrieve configuration via CLI (Warning: Timeout in executing
script: Failed to get to technician interface mode.)
If messages like this occur frequently in NAS, you may need to reboot your
router to clear up memory. Adding memory to the device will prevent the
error from occurring frequently.

260
Device Driver Reference

Circuit names should avoid containing braces or backslashes

Circuit names on BayRS routers can be defined to contain braces ({, })
and escaped characters (e.g. \n, \}). However, NAS will not be able to
parse such circuit names properly and may truncate or otherwise misread the
name of the circuit. The following circuit names would be parsed correctly by
NAS:
circuit-name {Remote circuit}
circuit-name {Remote circuit
with a second line}
The following circuit names would not be parsed correctly by NAS:
circuit-name {Remote { office } San Jose}
circuit-name {Remote office circuit :\} }
Some configured Syslog servers may not receive messages
You can configure BayRS devices to send Syslog messages to multiple hosts.
However, by default the device sends messages to only five of the configured
hosts. You can use the maximum-hosts (in bcc) command to configure the
device to use more or fewer Syslog hosts (with an absolute maximum of ten).
You can use the show syslog log-host command (in bcc) to confirm the
operational state of Syslog messaging to the NAS server. If the operational
state is down, remove any unnecessary Syslog servers from the device's
configuration or increase the maximum-hosts value to at least one greater
than the number of currently configured Syslog hosts.
To enable Syslog logging to the NAS server that was previously listed as
down, save the configuration you modified and reload the device. Alternately,
you can delete the Syslog host entry for the NAS server from the configuration
and then use the NAS Configure Syslog task to add it back to the device.

Known Issues
Passport OS versions prior to 3.2 reset password when deploying to
startup
Performing a deploy configuration to startup and reboot task in NAS against a
Passport 8000 series device running an OS version of 3.1.x or earlier will
result in the passwords on the device being reset to a default value. NAS does
not detect this change and will therefore lose access via CLI to the device in
this event (some tasks may continue to work if SNMP access is still available).
It is recommended not managing Passport 8000 or 8300 series devices
running OS versions prior to 3.2. If this must be done, it is important to not
perform configuration deployments to startup via NAS.
Software update requires special handling in NAS
Updating software on a Passport 8000 series device involves several steps to
ensure a successful update. Before deploying software to this device, please
review the Nortel Passport 8000 Series Devices Software Update Guide. This
guide describes how to enable updates for Passport 8000 devices in NAS and
the steps necessary to ensure successful software deployments.

SSH disabled for passport devices

SSH is disabled for Passport devices because the process of opening an SSH
socket for the device can cause the device to stop responding to network
packets. This failure results in an inability to manage the device and could
cause packets destined through the device to fail. The device must be
reloaded to recover from this scenario.
To prevent this from happening, SSH connections are not allowed to Passport
devices.

Known Issues
SNMP community strings not available from device
The Nortel WLAN access point does not provide its SNMP community strings in
its configuration. As a result, NAS will not be able to determine automatically
if SNMP community strings change. Any change to SNMP community strings
on the device will require editing the device in NAS to update the SNMP
community strings to use.
Model only available through SNMP access
The model information for Nortel WLAN access points is only available through
SNMP access. If SNMP access is disabled or the community string NAS is
specified to use is incorrect for the device, this information will not be
retrieved.

Known Issues
Configuration changes containing errors may be captured
Nortel Alteon devices buffer configuration changes until they are saved and
applied. There may be cases where these buffered changes contain errors that
will not manifest until the configuration is saved. Consequently, NAS could
capture a configuration that contains errors. Later, when the changes are
saved, the device will discard all erroneous changes and NAS could have a
copy of the device configuration that is not consistent with what is actually
running on the device.
Changes to certificates and RSA keys will not be detected
The certificates and private RSA keys are always masked when comparing
configuration captures since they change with every dump command. If
they were not masked, every snapshot would result in a detected
configuration change and stored configuration. However, due to this masking,
legitimate changes to these certificates and keys will not be detected. If you
change this information in the configuration, you should take a checkpoint
snapshot to force the saving of the configuration into NAS and ensure the
modified keys are saved.

Device Driver Reference

Avoid deploying software images with .img extensions

If you deploy an image with the extension ".img" to a Nortel Alteon device, it
will reload and reset its configuration and default settings. Passwords will also
be reset by the device. You should perform this task manually via the console
port since the device must be reconfigured by the user following reload (refer
to the WLAN Security Switch 1.0 User's Guide and Command Reference,
Chapter 2, "Reinstalling the Software").
The preferred extension for images to deploy is .peg.
Full access users in password management always match NAS user
for device
The full access username and password available to manage through the
Password management feature are the username and password used by NAS
to login to the device. This means that the username and password for the
device in NAS will change which username and password is managed in
Password Management. The reason for this is that the device can only change
the password of the logged-in user.
Common Alteon custom command script and diagnostic mode
The mode for custom command scripts and diagnostics for all Nortel Alteon
drivers is shared across a family of devices that use a similar, but not
identical, operating system. This means that though many custom command
scripts and diagnostics defined for the Nortel Alteon exec mode will be
applicable to all devices supporting this mode, some will not work across all
such devices. In almost all cases, the potential damage of running a script
containing a command not supported by a given device will simply be that the
script fails with an error.
You can use the for specific driver selection when defining a command script
or diagnostic if you want to tailor it to one member of the family of devices. As
an example, consider a diagnostic that runs the /info/local command. This
diagnostic will run successfully on a Nortel Alteon WSS or SSL, but will fail on
a Nortel Alteon ASF (which does not support this command). In defining such
a diagnostic, you would want to choose only the WSS and SSL drivers as
supported.

Known Issues
Username required for FTP access
Packeteer devices do not require a specific username to perform a Telnet
session from the device. However, the username is needed when using FTP.
When adding Packeteer devices to NAS, you must include a username in the
Password Information section if you plan to connect to the device via FTP. If
you do not include a username, NAS will set the username to 'user'. This is
not a valid entry when connecting to the device via FTP. Consequently, no
successful snapshots will be taken from this device.

Known Issue
Password Management
The Symbol Spectrum Access Point is very discerning about accepting
passwords. If anything goes wrong on the initial password entry, the device
closes the connection. Consequently, the standard CLI discovery script does
not work. (It sends a ^U and backspace before the password and these are
treated as part of the login attempt.) In addition, once the device closes the
connection, it goes into lock-down for a second or so, refusing all further login
attempts. As a result, to discover the device, you must insert its discovery
script prior to those scripts used for BayStack discovery.

Known Issues
Configuration Deployment (not reported by device)
The Symbol AP-41xx Access Point does not report errors when deploying a
configuration before a restart. Rather, the device ignores errors and restarts
with the last saved configuration. It is important to review any detected
changes in the configuration after a configuration deployment to ascertain if
the desired changes took effect.
Configuration Deployment (changes config filename and TFTP server)
Because the Symbol AP-41xx Access point reboots on deployment, a
configuration deployment attempt results in the TFTP server being set to the
NAS server used for the deployment. In addition, the config filename is set to
the filename used by the NAS server for the deployment.
Configuration Deployment (changes to passwords or community
strings could result in loss of connectivity)
Because passwords and community strings cannot be captured from the
Symbol AP-41xx Access Point configuration, NAS has no way of knowing if
they have changed. If an Edit & Deploy action is taken that includes changes
to these values, NAS is not able to identify these changes and could lose
connectivity to the device after the deployment. If this occurs, you will need
to manually reconfigure NAS with the new passwords and/or community
strings to restore connectivity with the device.
