Services
Services are configurations that can be activated on multiple SNA-capable devices or
interfaces, simultaneously. These are only available for devices with full SNA support or for
interfaces for those devices.
Services are selected from the right-hand information panel.
To apply a service, select one or more devices or interfaces from the Topology view, either
manually from the map or by selecting them from the search results. You can activate any
service that is appropriate to all selected elements.
After a service is selected, a dedicated GUI for the service is displayed. The current settings
for the relevant feature from all selected elements are displayed. The specific parameters
displayed for each service are described below. You can then update the settings on selected
devices or interfaces or select an entry from one device and copy the entry to other devices.
You can also use the settings from one of the devices or interfaces as the settings for all other
devices or interfaces in the selection.
For most services, a GUI page is displayed where specific parameters can be defined for the
service. After you enter the parameters in the GUI page, and all possible client side validations
are performed on them, the settings are submitted to the selected devices or interfaces. A
report then is displayed showing the results of the service as they are received. For every
recipient of the service, a status is displayed (submitting, success, fail) and if an error was
received the error message details are displayed for that recipient.
If a configuration failed due to a communication error between SNA and the configured
device, an option is displayed to retry the configuration.
By default, all services copy the running configuration file to the startup configuration file
automatically after the configuration is performed. You can disable this option.
