Chapter 6 NMT Reports
Parts List Report
The parts list report lists parts required to provision the modeled network. The parts included are the
chassis, front cards, back cards, and special shelves and units. Cables and optional parts are usually not
included in the parts list report. Bundles are used if applicable.
Note The Parts List Report is output in DBF format.
Resource Report/Card Statistics Report
The Resource Report/Card Statistics Report displays the card cage for each system unit, and a brief
listing of used and available ports. The card statistics report is the second part of the resource report.
Release 15 of the Cisco WAN Modeling Tools models the UXM card, and has a new card statistics report
for tracking the UBU usage of this and other cards. Below is a card statistics report for a two IGX
networks with 295 ATF = FR interworking connections between the nodes, each MIR=64K, PIR=256K.

Too Big Delay Connection cannot be routed without exceeding the maximum delay. (This pertains to
AutoRoute networks.)
No CellBase Path Connection cannot be routed without being converted to FastPackets on older equipment,
but the connection is not permitted to be converted to FastPackets.
No ATM Path ATM connection cannot be routed without using trunks that do not support ATM types of
load (on older Fastpacket equipment).
No COS Path No path to support Class of Service connections. (This pertains to PNNI networks.)
Transit Rstr No path that would not have via nodes configured as transit restricted. (This pertains to
PNNI networks.)
Media Restricted Connection can only be routed using a restricted media (for instance, a satellite link).
