Configuring Entuity Network Analytics to send notifications to TrueSight Network Automation

You can configure Entuity Network Analytics to forward device events such as Routing CPU High Utilization and SNMP Not Responding to The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. as syslog events. These events are then included in Change Summary reports and can be used in satisfying triggering conditions in the network that warrant notification, such as AvailMonitor Node Down and Configuration Change in past 2 hours. This topic includes the following sections:

• Configuring Entuity Network Analytics when TrueSight Network Automation is co-located
• Configuring Entuity Network Analytics when TrueSight Network Automation is on separate server

Configuring Entuity Network Analytics when TrueSight Network Automation is co-located

The following procedure describes how to configure Entuity Network Analytics to notify The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. when the The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. is co-located with the Entuity Network Analytics server:

1. Copy the forkevent_ena.cfg file from BCAN_HOME\public\entuity to ENA_INSTALL\etc.
2. View ENA_INSTALL\etc\forkevent_ena.cfg and check the following:
   1. If Entuity Network Analytics is installed on Windows, go to the section called [fork_nt]. 
   2. If Entuity Network Analytics is installed on UNIX, go to the section called [fork_unix]. 

   3. Ensure that the start= and directory= field values are set correctly.
       By default, they are set to the The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. default installation directories. Here is an example of what the [fork_nt] section will look like for a default installation:

      [fork_nt]
      start=c:\progra~1\bmcsof~1\bca-networks_jvm\bin\java \-jar
      bcan-syslogdriver-all.jar \-h 127.0.0.1
      args=${event.PAPIDescr} EYE Group ID:${event.PAPIEventGroup},
       ${event.PAPIEventStr}
      type=fork
      directory=<bcan-install-dir>\tools
      

   4. In the following section, ensure that the user name and password match an Entuity Network Analytics logon name and password. The view= field value specifies the Entuity Network Analytics view from which events are forwarded.

      [connection]
      username=admin
      password=admin
      view=Regional
      
3. Edit the following file:
   • (Windows): ENA_INSTALL\etc\startup_WIN32.cfg
   • (UNIX): ENA_INSTALL/etc/startup_UNIX.cfg

4. Add the following lines of code at the end of the file:

   [forkevent]
   state=normal
   type=command
   is_critical=n
   start=${ENTUITY_HOME}${FPS}integ${FPS}ForkEvent${FPS}forkevent
   ${ENTUITY_HOME}${FPS}etc${FPS}forkevent_ena.cfg fork_nt
   
5. Restart the Entuity Network Analytics server processes.

Configuring Entuity Network Analytics when TrueSight Network Automation is on separate server

The following procedure describes how to configure Entuity Network Analytics to notify The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. when the The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. server is on a separate server from Entuity Network Analytics:

1. Transfer the forkevent_ena.cfg file from BCAN_HOME\public\entuity to ENA_INSTALL\etc.

2. Transfer the bcan-syslogdriver-all.jar file from BCAN_HOME\tools to ENA_INSTALL.

   Note

   Integration with The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. requires Java version 1.6 or later to be installed on the Entuity Network Analytics host.

3. View ENA_INSTALL\etc\forkevent_ena.cfg and check the following:
   1. If Entuity Network Analytics is installed on Windows, go to the section called [fork_nt]. If Entuity Network Analytics is installed on UNIX, go to the section called [fork_unix].
      
      1. Change the start= value to specify the path to Java or remove the path specification to defer to the system path.
      2. Change the directory= value to the location of the bcan-syslogdriver-all.jar file. If you followed the previous step, this is ENA_INSTALL.

      3. Ensure the IP address listed after the -h option is the IP address where The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. is installed.
         
         Here is an example of what the [fork_nt] section typically looks like when Entuity Network Analytics and The referenced document [xwiki:Automation-DevSecOps.Network-Automation.TrueSight-Network-Automation.tsna251.TrueSight Network Automation 25\.1._Inclusion-Library._Common-terminology.WebHome] was not found. are not co-located:

         [fork_nt]
         start=java \-jar bcan-syslogdriver-all.jar \--h 192.168.1.10
         args=${event.PAPIDescr} EYE Group ID:${event.PAPIEventGroup},
          ${event.PAPIEventStr}
         type=fork
         directory=c:\entuity

   2. In the following section, ensure that the user name and password match an Entuity Network Analytics logon name and password. The view= value specifies the Entuity Network Analytics view from which events are forwarded.

      [connection]
      username=admin
      password=admin
      view=Regional
      
4. Edit the following file:
   • (Windows): ENA_INSTALL\etc\startup_WIN32.cfg
   • (UNIX): ENA_INSTALL/etc/startup_UNIX.cfg

5. Add the following lines of code to the end of the file:

   [forkevent]
   state=normal
   type=command
   is_critical=n
   start=${ENTUITY_HOME}${FPS}integ${FPS}ForkEvent${FPS}forkevent
    ${ENTUITY_HOME}${FPS}etc${FPS}forkevent_ena.cfg fork_nt
   
6. Restart the Entuity Network Analytics server processes.
