Connecting a Global Manager with a Regional Manager

In this example, both regional1 and regional2 manage several common switches.

To forward this common switch information to global1 from regional1, you need to set up the required connection.

To make that happen you must connect global1 to regional1 before connecting it to regional2. By using that connection sequence, global1 considers regional1 to be the NNMi management server monitoring these common switches. Global1 also ignores information about these common switches that it receives from regional2.

Note recommends you use this feature on a small scale to better understand how it works, then expand it to meet your network management needs.

To connect global1 first to regional1, then to regional2, complete the following steps:

First, synchronize the NNMi management server clocks for global1, regional1, and regional2 before you connect these servers in a global network management configuration. See Clock Synchronization Issues in the NNMi help for more information.

Note NNMi displays a warning message if there is a connection problem with a regional manager, such as a server clock synchronization problem.
Set up a connection from global1 to regional1.
1. From the global1NNMi console, click Global Network Management in the Configuration workspace.
2. Click Regional Manager Connections.
3. Click the New icon to create a new regional manager.
4. Add the name and description information for regional1.
5. Click the Connection Tab.
6. Click the New icon.
7. Add the connection information for regional1
  
  Note See Help->Using the Regional Manager Connection Form in the NNMi help for specific information about the completing this form.
8. Click Save and Close in each configuration form to save your changes.
Complete step a through step g to establish a connection from global1 to regional2.
