Description
This customized course focuses on the administration and use of three Cisco Prime component products: Prime Central, Prime Network, and Prime Performance Manager.
Prime Central provides a portal for user management for the suite of products allowing for single sign-on, a launch point for the domain managers and life-cycle applications (Prime Network, Prime Performance Manager, and potentially other component applications), the consolidation and correlation of alarms from the domain managers, and a common inventory view of managed elements.
Prime Network is a service-centered comprehensive management solution for dynamic and complex multiservice networks including MPLS, Carrier Ethernet, Data Center, and Mobility. Prime Network offers comprehensive service assurance and device management for the packet/IP domain with advanced capabilities including virtual connectivity discovery, root-cause identification, topology-driven troubleshooting, alarm reduction through topology-based correlation and de-duplication.
Prime Performance Manager is a single performance management solution that supports all Cisco architectures providing operators with granular visibility into network and service topologies along with related performance metrics.
