Overview of integration with HP NNM

This topic contains information about the integration between TrueSight Network Automation and HP Network Node Manager (HP NNM).

Key points of integration

This section provides information for configuring the key integration points between Network Automation and HP NNM.

Device import/discovery

Network Automation can connect to the HP NNM database on a routine basis (for example, daily) and import newly discovered devices. The import can also trigger a configuration snapshot for new devices.

Send policy-based notifications

Network Automation sends policy-based SNMP notifications to the HP NNM Alarms Browser or SNMP Traps viewer to report change drift and compliance violations. This enables network operations personnel to identify potential service impacting changes and begin immediate remediation.

Launching in-context reports and remediation requests

From HP NNM 7.x, authenticated users can launch in-context change reports (for example, Change Summary Report, Compliance Summary Report) to investigate policy notifications.

Authorized HP NNM users can also remediate change drift and compliance violations by launching remediation requests.
