Deploying Existing Network Objects Using IP Auto Discovery
After the Network Element and Software objects have been created by the Auto Discovery process, their
contents need to be determined. This determination is made by commissioning the Network Element
object. When the Network Element object is commissioned, it executes a subchassis discovery process
that communicates with the switch to automatically determine the contents of the switch.
However, before the Network Element object can be commissioned, additional parameters are required.
Specifically, the Telnet and Enable passwords and the SNMP communities are required. These values
are established on the Network Element Management window.
For further information on setting these parameters and commissioning the Network Element, see the
following sections:
• Enabling Communication Between Network Elements and Devices, page 4-22
• Manually Commissioning Network Elements, page 4-25
