We have a few devices that we monitor with NCM that frequently have a couple of lines of their configurations changed automatically. We'd like to have NCM filter out these lines of the config so that they don't show up as changes every time a scheduled backup runs, or as a difference between the running and startup config. I have tried using the "Add Exclude Criteria" tool, but it isn't working. I noticed that the Template Names in the list don't exactly match the Device Template Names under a device's properties. Perhaps I'm using the tool incorrectly.
One of the devices I'm working with is a Cisco 800 series router. Under the device's properties, the Device Template Name is Cisco Integrated Services Router. The lines of the config that change that I want to filter out are
539 |
rxspeed 3100000 539 speed 144000 |
For the the Add Excelude Criteria, I created a new criteria with Template Name Cisco Router and entered the criteria rxspeed.* I then did the same for txspeed.* and speed.*
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get NCM to not report these changes in the config?
Thanks.
