What is IPMA? IP Maestro (IPMA) is a simplified centralized element management system to manage OcNOS-based devices; learn more about it here.
IPMA Demo VM: Includes the complete IPMA including its docker and docker compose framework, which has been taken as a snapshot and provided as a single import ready qcov2 image with reduced memory footprint.
Hardware requirements for Demo VM: Ensure the host Linux operating system has the following minimum with KVM installed.
RAM – 16GB, DiskSize – 70GB, vCPUs: 2
Installing IPMA VM: It is very simple
- Import the IPMA qcov2 image into KVM and start it
- Open a terminal and start nsmo_start.sh script, select defaults
- IPMA portal is ready, access it with http://<IP-address>/
For detailed steps, please refer to IPMA Demo VM Quick Start Guide
Follow the steps in the “IPMA User Manual” and use the IPMA web GUI to manage the network. All functionalities of regular IPMA would work here too.
The demo VM provides you the experience of managing up to four OcNOS devices via the convenience of the GUI based interface of IP Maestro.
As an alternative to managing OcNOS based whitebox platforms, you can also experience the IP Maestro interface by managing OcNOS Demo VMs. This helps in trying out config framework on VM’s if hardware platforms are not available / busy. Note that some functionalities would be limited on OcNOS Demo VM’s as hosts.
It is suggested to use OcNOS hardware platforms to verify monitoring aspects using IPMA.
