A device group is any grouping of devices that you define, by IP address range and device type. For
example, you can create a device group for separate headends, subsets of headends, or groupings of
same device types.

A group is defined only on the New Group window; however, devices are assigned to a group manually, or
through device discovery, using network mapping. When using device discovery network mapping, you
can specify a single device by IP address, or multiple devices within a specified IP range, and this range
can be further defined optionally by device type. It is not necessary to define groups before discovering
devices for the SDM; however, if discovered devices are to be associated with a specific group, it is better
to define the group first, followed by the network mapping.

For example, if you create a device group called Headend A, define it to contain devices in the IP address
range of 165.137.103.11 to 165.137.103.40, and then discover a device with an IP address of
165.137.103.20, this device will automatically be assigned to the device group Headend A.

Following discovery, devices can be moved between device groups.

Step 4b Configure Network Mappings
You can define IP address ranges and device types that should be
associated with groups to assist with device discovery.

Click Add to define another IP address range for the selected group.

Network mapping can be performed using the following methods:


1. For new groups, use the Network Mapping tab on the New Group window (Configuration > Add Group)
2. From the Network Mapping tab on the Discovery Properties window (Configuration > Discover
Devices)
3. If you accidentally close the group definition window before configuring the network mapping or want
to modify an existing group, you can proceed by:
a. Clicking on "Groups" in the View List
b. Right clicking on the group you're configuring and choosing "Properties
c. Clicking on the "Network Mapping" tab

Discovery is the process by which the SDM automatically adds existing, pre-configured (IP provisioned)
devices to the SDM. The discovery process can be performed any time by:
1. Selecting a managed network in the Discovery Management window
2. Clicking on the Start Discovery button.
This will start the discovery process in the background. You can continue to work on the SDM while the
discovery is in progress. You can also click the Refresh button to update the status display. When the
discovery is completed, the status will be FINISHED. You can also cancel the discovery process by
clicking Stop Discovery.

When discovering a device, the SDM:


Maps the device to the SDMs managed firmware
Retrieves all device configuration information
Synchronizes the devices alarm status
Adds the device to the appropriate group (if a group has been defined that contains the devices IP
address)

It is recommended that all existing devices be added using discovery.


All discovered devices are added with BOOTP processing disabled.

Once you press the Discover button, the discovery process is kicked off in the background. If you wish to
cancel the discovery process, click Cancel Discovery. To update the Discovery Status field, press the
Refresh button.

Discovering a large range of IP addresses could take a considerable amount of time. Therefore, try to
keep the IP address range as small as possible when performing device discovery.

When adding a new, unconfigured device to your headend, you can use the Add a Device option. This
option adds the device to the SDM with Motorolas default configuration parameters. The devices IP
Address and Type determine to which device group the device will be added. Do not use this option for
devices that are already configured with a valid IP address. In those cases, devices should be discovered
instead of added.

If you are not using device names via the hosts file, enter the devices IP address in the Name: field. If
you are using device names, edit the hosts file first, then enter the devices name in the Name: field. If
you are not using a gateway, enter 0.0.0.0 in the Gateway: field.

Viewing Alarms and Events
The SDM enables you to view alarms and events:

Events are notifications of any trap received from a managed device or any
operation change or state change within the SDM. An example of an event is a
configuration change or a change in device state.
Alarms are based on events and alert the user to problems in the network or
within the SDM.
There are 6 alarm severities:
critical (red)
major (orange)
minor (yellow)
warning (blue)
unknown (gray)
clear (green)

An alarm is a direct result of an event, but every event does not cause an
alarm.

There are two ways in which events are generated in the SDM:
Through SDM operations such as device discovery, threshold events, status polling, or custom events.
Through traps. A trap is an unsolicited notification sent to the SDM by the SNMP agent in the network
element. The SDM collects and displays traps. The SDM logs traps with a time and date signature so
technicians in the headend can analyze the logs for fault patterns. The SDM also forwards SNMP traps to
other network management stations (NMS).

Traps can be filtered, but doing so will affect all users of the SDM and halt the data for the filtered traps
from becoming events.
Events are stored in the SDM database and can be viewed in the Network Events window.
When there is an event that indicates a failure, alarms are generated. The correlation of events into alarms
is done using the failure object of the event objectfor all events with the same failure object there will
only be one alarm and the severity of the alarm will be the severity of the latest event with the same failure
object.

Event/Alarm storage:
- Events are stored for 7 days
- The last 10,000 events are viewable in the GUI
- The event report will show full list of saved events
- Up to 10,000 alarms are stored
- once reached, SDM begins deleting old alarms
- Cleared alarms are deleted every 24 hours
- Up to 500 alarm annotations are stored

You can also search for specific events or alarms. When viewing events or alarms, access this feature via the menu
bar: Edit>Search

Actions that can be performed on Alarms by right clicking:


Clear: Changes the severity of the alarm to Clear. This affects the alarm status and alarm count for the device and
the device group. This change is local to the SDM. The device may show a different alarm status and when the
device re-synchronizes with the SDM, if the alarm is still active on the device, it will revert to its previous severity.
Acknowledge (also called Pick in the alarm details window): Assigns you as the owner of the alarm. Acknowledging
and alarm does not affect device status.
Delete: Deletes the alarm from the database and removes it from view. This change is local to the SDM. If the
condition still exists on the device, the alarm may re-appear when the SDM re-synchronizes with the device.

The alarm summary panel on the lower left section of the main screen displays a table of alarm counts color-coded by
severity and sorted by category.

If you choose to have an alarm automatically generate an e-mail message, you must configure the
destination e-mail server. The e-mail server can be identified by IP address, host name (in host file) or its
domain name. To configure the e-mail server, select Administration>Email Server from the menu, enter
the e-mail server info, and click Apply.

Troubleshooting Using the SDM

All managed networks, groups, and devices have an alarm


status icon in the SDM GUI. Using these alarms, you can
troubleshoot using a top-down technique:
Open a group or network that has an alarm status other
than clear
Look for sub-groups or devices that have alarm statuses
other than clear
Open a devices properties window, and view the Identity
and Fault tabs for more information on the devices error
state.

Important note: the database backup directory should contain only database backups and no other types
of files or folders. A bug in SDM v2.1.1 will cause stored databases to be deleted during a DB backup if
other types of files exist.
