How to integrate NVIDIA NetQ with Netris
1.Purpose
NVIDIA NetQ provides real-time monitoring and analytics for data centers running Cumulus Linux. Integrating it with Netris aligns NetQ's topology with the Netris-managed network, enabling deeper visibility and proactive troubleshooting.
2.Scope
- Real-time network telemetry and health monitoring
- Automated validation of fabric configuration
- Faster troubleshooting
3.Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have:
- Administrative access to the Netris Controller.
- Administrative access to your NVIDIA NetQ instance.
4.Procedure
Step-by-Step Integration Guide
4.1 Step 1: Export Topology Blueprint from Netris
NVIDIA NetQ requires a topology blueprint in a
specific .dot file format. Netris has a built-in function to generate
this file for you
1.Log
in to the Netris Controller
In the main navigation menu, go to Network -> Topology
2.From the dropdown menu, select
the option NVIDIA NetQ.
3.The web browser will automatically download a file named something like
netq-topology.dot. this file in an easily accessible location
4.2 Step 2: Upload Blueprint to NVIDIA NetQ
Now, please upload the downloaded .dot file
to your NVIDIA NetQ platform to activate the new topology.
1.Log
in to the NVIDIA NetQ dashboard.In the NetQ navigation menu, go to the Validation section
2.Click on Create a validation or the equivalent button to start a new validation job.
3.Configure the validation job: Set the target to Run on all switches. Select the validation type as Topology. Look for an option to Upload Blueprint file (or similar wording, such as "Upload topology file"). Click this option and select the .dot file that downloaded from Netris.
4.3 Step 3: Verify Successful Activation Once the validation completed.
Check the validation results for a message indicating "Blueprint successfully activated" .
5.Conclusion
- Netris handles automated network provisioning and configuration tasks. NetQ delivers real-time telemetry, analytics, and validation capabilities
- NetQ delivers real-time telemetry, analytics, and validation capabilities.
