Network Protocol Manager for IS-IS builds a data model of the discovered IS-IS topology objects in its domain. The model, shown in IS-IS data model, represents the IS-IS objects and certain network objects imported from IP Availability Manager, their relationships, and their connections.
The IS-IS objects are represented as instances of the following VMware Smart Assurance ICIM classes:
-
ISISArea
-
ISISService
-
ISISNetwork
-
ISISInterface
-
ISISNeighborEndpoint
-
ISISAdjacency
The VMware Smart Assurance Network Protocol Manager Discovery Guide Supplement provides more information about the IS-IS data model. The VMware Smart Assurance Common Information Model (ICIM) 1.11 Reference for Non-Service Assurance Manager Products provides descriptions of ICIM classes, relationships, and connections.
