Operations Reports

Operations Reports is an optional add-on component to Prime Network 4.1 that provides extended

reporting functionality. It provides a wide range of prepackaged reports that you can run for your various

business needs. It also allows you to create your own reports or customize reports according to your own

requirements.

The following new features and enhancements are described in the Cisco Prime Network 4.1 Operations

Reports User Guide:

• New prepackaged report type—Network Service Reports. These reports can be generated to display

information about virtual connections, VPLS, and network pseudowires in your network.

• New prepackaged report, Daily Standard Event Count, for displaying information on standard

events (minimal parsing, not processed for correlation). In addition, customized reports can be

created using the new Standard Reports data source to define the information that will be included

in the report.

• New threshold-crossing syslogs reports that shows the count of syslogs over and above a defined

maximum threshold. Until this threshold is reached, the events are not reported, and are counted as

ignored events.

• Hardware inventory data source extended to include sub-module port details.
