2811 and 1921 routers

Trying to discover 2811 and a 1921 router using APIC-EM v 1.2, but unsuccessful.How to determine whether its G2 or not.

Having said that, there may be a limited set of G2s that are supported (and 1921 may not be one of them). It's better to check for specifically supported platforms in data sheets & release notes for APIC-EM.

 Just remember, there are different levels of support for platforms too.

Base support:  discovery/inventory etc

App support:  PnP/IWAN/EQ etc.

 release notes have all the details.

 Also, by definition, if the platform is supported in app (like PnP) it will be supported in base controller.

Here are release notes for PnP, and you can see 1921 is explicitly listed.

You can get to logs of Discovery/Inventory logs to check the failure reasons/errors:

1. Figure out the LXC container IP that's running apic-em-inventory-manager service.

2. SSH into that container.

3. Change directory to following location: /opt/CSCOlumos/logs

4. Look for logs mainly in following files: (You can grep with IP of the device you care about)

    existenceDiscovery.log

    existenceInventory.log

    inventory.log

    apic-inventory.log
