  • Improves the QoS report by providing 'Standardised Quality of Service' on Cisco, Huawei, Juniper and Teldat devices insofar as these devices support QoS.
    • Teldat proprietary BRS is also interpreted as QoS insofar as BRS implements QoS;
    • opReports 3.2.0 does not have a dependency on any particular version of NMIS8;
    • NMIS8 modelling needs to be set up correctly for the Standardised QoS report to work correctly.
      The following files have been developed to assist in regard to NMIS modelling to support Standardised QoS:
    • These files are examples that should be reviewed and adapted as needed before implementation:
      • Plugin to support Huawei QoS devices at nmis8/conf/plugins/QualityOfServiceStattable.pm: QualityOfServiceStattable.pm
      • Common model file to support Huawei QoS devices at nmis8/models/Common-Huawei-cbqos.nmis: Common-Huawei-cbqos.nmis
        • QualityOfServiceStat
      • Example model file at nmis8/models/Model-HuaweiRouterAR2240-uses-common.nmis: Model-HuaweiRouterAR2240-uses-common.nmis
      • Plugin to support Juniper CoS devices at nmis8/conf/plugins/jnxCoStable.pm: jnxCoStable.pm
      • Common model file to support Juniper CoS devices at nmis8/models/Common-Juniper-jnxCoS.nmis: Common-Juniper-jnxCoS.nmis
        • Juniper_CoS
          • Please note that TotalDropPkts in this file is calculated as sum of jnxCosIfqTailDropPkts and jnxCosIfqTotalRedDropPkts as a 'calculate' example:
            • TotalDropPkts can be adapted to rather be only jnxCosIfqTotalRedDropPkts, or can be disabled completely by commenting out the entry
      • Common model file to support Teldat QoS and BRS at nmis8/models/Common-Teldat-cbqos.nmis: Common-Teldat-cbqos.nmis
        • TeldatQoSStat
        • TeldatBRSStat
      • Example model file at nmis8/models/Model-TeldatM1-uses-common.nmis: Model-TeldatM1-uses-common.nmis
      • Teldat QoS graph file at nmis8/models/Graph-TeldatQoSStat.nmis: Graph-TeldatQoSStat.nmis
      • Teldat BRS graph file at nmis8/models/Graph-TeldatBRSStat.nmis: Graph-TeldatBRSStat.nmis
      • Teldat graph file at nmis8/models/Graph-mem-proc-teldat.nmis: Graph-mem-proc-teldat.nmis
    • The following changes will also be needed in NMIS8:
    • nmis8/models/Common-database.nmis
      • add following two lines after 'QualityOfServiceStat' => '/nodes/$node/interface/hwqos-$index.rrd':
        • 'TeldatQoSStat' => '/nodes/$node/interface/tdqos-$index.rrd',
          'TeldatBRSStat' => '/nodes/$node/interface/tdbrs-$index.rrd',
    • nmis8/conf/Model-Policy.nmis
      • set Juniper_CoS => 'true' in 999 => {...} section
    • nmis8/models/Model.nmis
      • needs approporate entries for the Huawei and Teldat models to use their respective example models:
        • 'HuaweiRouterAR2240-uses-common' => 'AR2240'
        • 'TeldatM1-uses-common' => 'M1'
    • Since the QoS Report is a CBQoS Report, the following Node settings in NMIS need checking for Juniper, Huawei and Teldat compatible devices:
      • Edit each node and set 'CBQoS' to 'both' or 'out' then update each node
      Update all device nodes affected by these changes: StandardisedQualityofService
  • Please read the known_reports_cache documentation:
    • Although the known_reports_cache has not changed since version 3.1.11, It is important to understand the benefits of applying the cache
      and that deleting reports via cronjob or commandline should be followed by a command to flush the known_reports_cache.
