1   Description

This instruction describes how to check the general attributes of the Managed Element (ME) and more specifically the following:

• Node name used to address the ME
• Distinguished Name (DN) prefix attribute dnPrefix used by management systems as a naming context to partition Managed Objects (MOs) from different MEs into logical domains
• Attributes managedElementType and release, and the managed function name (CSCF-Function is used as example) used to identify the ME
• Attribute siteLocation used to describe the geographical location of the ME

Note:  

The time-related attributes are currently not supported.

2   Procedure

2.1   Check General System Attributes

Prerequisites

• No documents are required.
• No tools are required.
• The following condition must apply:
  • An Ericsson Command-Line Interface (ECLI) session in Exec mode is in progress.

Steps

1. Navigate to the top:

   >top

2. Check the node name:

   >show

   The following is an example output:

   ManagedElement=NODE06ST

   Note:  

   The node name is the value that follows ManagedElement, here NODE06ST.

   
   
3. Show the general system attributes, for example:

   >show ManagedElement=NODE06ST

   The following is an example output:

   ManagedElement=NODE06ST dnPrefix="EAST-SUBNET" managedElementType="NODE" networkManagedElementId="NODE06ST" release=14B siteLocation=Kista SystemFunctions=1 Transport=1 XyzFunction=xyz

   This output corresponds to an ME named NODE06ST of type NODE and release 14B, located in Kista. The ME supports a managed function named XyzFunction. The ME is managed as part of the EAST-SUBNET logical domain by a management system.

networkManagedElementId and dnPrefix are configurable attributes. Modifying these attributes can affect integration to management systems. The management system administrator must be advised when modifications are to be made to these attributes.
